Gentle Gender

The mind is covered and protected by a skull or dome
Inside lay the sacred seeds of a family and its home.

Every child has the right to its peaceful time
Unencumbered and free of mankind's fettered mind.

God sanctions the children and will make no claim
It was man who found they could harvest the seed of blame.

Life is filled with choices, decisions and many of indifference
But those of evil profanity why do we accept with little resistance.

Sins of man since time began
Only the male masculine mind could ever understand.

Blessed is she who is the sole provider for man's continuity
Certainly more perceptive under the meaning of acuity.

She who is the singular one for man can have no other
The one whom we refuse to capitalize; our loving; "Mother".

Man has been the one to define, describe and defend
That is the way it was, seems to be, and has always been.

We cannot love and condone abuse, destruction, and denial
A child's mind is not an experiment or in the meaning of a trial.

Man and woman are given the keys for humanities trust
To pass on to their children a mind of their own they must.

Most adages come from good and stable thoughts
To place in a child's mind deserves more effort than they got.
