He needs a cwtch.A Poem by HuwHe gets angry but doesn't know why He punches the planet He cries in frustration He steals because he equates happiness with possessions He hits other children because he hates their enjoyment He'll spoils their fun because he doesn't have any fun himself He's alone in the rain because he can't connect with an Xbox he doesn't possess He can't connect he's alone he's desperate he's frightened he's angry He needs a cwtch.
(Cwtch is a Welsh word that doesn't translate into English. A dictionary will give you a cupboard or cubbyhole or a cuddle or hug. The term cwtch is far more secure and intimate than these words can convey.) © 2015 Huw |
