Today is a day to expose the hidden statistics of the various forms of child abuse.
Exposing the hidden stats can bring hope because anytime darkness is exposed to the light hope can begin to do its work.

Poetry and the Creative Mind Day
Poetry shows up later on this year so I'll leave all the "academics" of it for then.
Today I want to highlight two of my favorite creative minds in poetry, Shel Silverstein and Dr. Suess.
I really like this one by Shel Silverstein
Where the Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein
There is a place where the sidewalk ends
And before the street begins,
And there the grass grows soft and white,
And there the sun burns crimson bright,
And there the moon-bird rests from his flight
To cool in the peppermint wind.
Let us leave this place where the smoke blows black
And the dark street winds and bends.
Past the pits where the asphalt flowers grow
We shall walk with a walk that is measured and slow,
And watch where the chalk-white arrows go
To the place where the sidewalk ends.
Yes we'll walk with a walk that is measured and slow,
And we'll go where the chalk-white arrows go,
For the children, they mark, and the children, they know
The place where the sidewalk ends.
The Cat in the Hat by Dr. Suess
The cat in the hat
With red and white stripes
With an exotic, exuberant face
Bringing chaos from one place to other
He does wacky things
To amuse the children
He makes everything he can
To make the children laugh
He yells, he jumps, he follows his id side
He laughs, he smiles, doesn't follows directions
He's white, and black, a mixed creation
He uses, a big bow, its red as the stripes
Is everything about fun
He can't think about more
Its time, to fix the damage
Can be fun, but not as a massage
The cat in the hat
Needs help to solve that
Thing 1, Thing 2
Will help forward all
The mom
Is close
She unlocks the door
Is hard, to know, the kids are cool
Normal, as before
Bye bye to the cat
