Stop by and check out the rules, submission guidelines as well as the prizes. I am unable to enter the contest but felt in a poetic mood anyway. No child should suffer The agonies of shame Or guilt in blame. Or fears of a simple hall. Without visions of carrion ravens.
Childhood is a time to play Happy times to learn Without parents who like to burn.
Let's make a change across this land. In Texas concerning a girl who was gang raped on Crystal Beach in Galveston, Texas after her vehicle was stopped by a group of high school and college students. The young man who stood by and video taped the episode has been found by police and the tape is being used to try and identify the actual rapists. Since that time several other children have disappeared in the Houston area. Two of them have been recovered because of the media coverage of their loss.
