Suffer the little children Dirty little men They’re all the same Looking for their next prey A vulnerable child One who won’t tell No one to turn to Oh, but the shame they feel Remaining hidden ❧ And so the story goes on Little children suffer In silence Nobody knows Or they don’t care But [...]

Visiting my blog today is the lovely Kit Domino, author of Every Step of the Way. Born with a pen in your hand or writing came as a shock brigade? Very definitely with a pen in my hand. I was a sickly child, often away from school and at one stage even having lessons at home [...]
