i was told this often as a kid...and it had its affect. I grew up feeling that what i had to say was unimportant and that more than a couple sentences and i would lose people's interest fast.
Not much self-confidence stems from this kind of upbringing. We are made to feel we should be just scenery...i can relate...took a long time to gain confidence...

I like this kind of poetry, simple like me but not too. I always wonder if the poem is a life experience or imagination. Or maybe even a little of both. Neat to read an author so far away. Thanks

You describe what today would be bordering on 'child abuse' in a sensitive and sympathetic voice and description, which sets the images for the reader of an innocent waif deprived of love and affection.
Yes – a very interesting write! You have poetically touched upon a subject which should be addressed in our modern times. Being told to be silent is not the answer, only a means of control. If we are to challenge a culture of abuse, we must listen to our children. We must also create a society where all are listened to, regardless of gender, class or race. Only then might such systematic abuses become a thing of the past. Great share my friend – only those who have felt the issue can relate such words – bless... :-)
