You steal my words

You steal my words
every jot~every tittle
till there is nothing
in the middle left for me
yet still I drone
and moan
because I need my words
they are mine and
unless I give them to you
they are not yours
to steal, use, or manipulate
you cannot throw
them back at me
You cannot take them
You steal my words

I am taking them back

I was thinking today what would cause someone to copy, steal or try to possess their neighbors gifts and talents…it makes me sad when people do this to the ones I love! 💜

Today I present to the world my daughter~by my Pa

Pa

Today I present to the world my daughter
She has eyes of blue and white golden hair. She’s ready in her little starched dress to begin her first day of school and I ask you old world be kind to her and treat her with care

For she’s my daughter and has always
been protected by me. It’s sad to think she will find other heros in the world besides me.

Pa, I never did find a hero but you. You taught me how to be a fighter so I never looked to anyone but God. Thank you for the example you were in fighting for what you believed in and for also staying silent and finding peace from within. I understand your silence more now then ever.
