I not only would steal to feel my children but have. I am not proud but how could anyone not do what ever they have to to fee their children. I love the recording and I do hope you get to record it professionally one day. Great work work for this one. So sorry I have been remiss in my reviews do to my recuperation from my broken ribs. Hopefully by the end of January I will be back to my regular self and able to keep up with proper reviewing.

    Hi. So nice to hear from you. No worries about reviews. I'm the worst in Fanstory history at reviewing and responding, so I understand. :))
    I found a few of the responses a bit odd. I think it would be a given that one would do anything to feed their kids. I'm delighted you liked the music, I'm not quite as confident about that as I am the lyrics. So very encouraging. Perhaps I'll get a chance in a studio. At the very least I'm trying to get a little bit better equipment so I can make a less noisy offering. :)) Keep healing! No one's going anywhere. mikey

Yes Mikey, I would certainly steal if it came down to it. Luckily I have enough family who would help me through it. I love the lyrics and absolutely love your style singing. You have an awesome voice my friend. I did not know this.
God bless!
Steve

    Yeah, I'd steal to to feed a kid if I had to. Glad you liked this. Wow. What do I do with all the praise? So appreciated. Maybe I'll make a comeback in music. :))

When it comes to one child they just might. We know that it is wrong, but I rather steal the food than have to look at the eyes of my children and say I am unable to give us a meal.

Mikey, your poem about a father stealing food for his hungry family, and his death at the hands of the King's men, who are blessed to live within the King's garden, and have never known hungry sends a powerful message to all who would read and learn.

Well, dear friend, very well stated and quite a combination of past and present.
Nicely done in the way it was presented and worded.
sad but oh so real in this day and age.

Great lyrics for a country song. I don't think I will be able to steal, not even to feed my kids. There is always a plan to make to feed the kids. On the other hand I never experienced such a dire situation.

I dont know how you managed to make a song out of this, but I guess I shouldnt be surprised.

    You are too kind. I'm just trying to get this stuff in a folder so I don't lose it. I am delighted by your response. It's difficult to listen to such a poor quality recording I know. I'll cross my fingers that you get rich. :)) mikey

Excellent. This is a very well written poem. It points out clearly the desperation of the starving. I love the ending even if it is rather sad. I could find no errors in this. Good job

I think that is a profound poem. Well done. Very thought provoking. It reminds me of the book, Sounder, when the father stole a ham for his starving family and had to endure the consequences. Yes, that is a very good question to ask. I especially like "what makes you think the air is just for you?". Wow. Very good.
