Freedom To Grow Medical Marijuana

Far as the Politics and this is my voice Medical Marijuana is the right choice Even though that road is no longer for me It serves a purpose and that’s clear to see Convicts are growers as it thins out the pen Offering the players a game they can win It’s true; home invasions may be on the rise As smoke from the pot fills up our skies Children of growers will grow up and use Trying hard to fill up their parent’s shoes We work, pay taxes, they rake in the cash Everybody’s looking for some kind of stash My stash is my daughter she is also my pride From her there are no actions I would ever hide There are two little feet that are following me Eyes as beautiful and innocent as two eyes can be Those eyes look at me like I’m Robert De Niro I’m not just her daddy I’m that little girls hero Because, I made the changes a man makes in life I made them for my children and also my wife I’m at the top of my class and like it or not I wouldn’t be here, sitting around smoking pot The Lord is my Shepherd my wife is my friend Each lets me know there are rules I can’t bend I talked it over with the Lord and my wife Everything bad comes with that way life We no longer choose to wear addicts shoes But you be our guest go right ahead and use I bear no animosity I will hold no grudge I may be a Christian but I am no Judge Aside from all the Politics this is my voice I know growing pot is not the right choice Medical Marijuana is an issue that I have friends on each side of the table. I think each side has many valid points. i think it's an issue that will never be resolved because the two sides see things very differently. I have far to much to live for to sit around high. But then again, who am I to judge.

You have done your job as a poet, to express your thought and feelings with out passing judgement. I will never agree with you, but you are a fine writer. In every sense of the word. And it would be easy to be pursued to your view, the way that you write it.

I agree with you but then again that's my opinion. Using pot as a medicinal drug could open the door to legalize it. With the rate of cigarette addiction in American, do we really need this? Good poem.....Blessings, Karla

Tests have shown THC can help people like me and James Fraser who have ulcerative colitis, so I wish the chemical could be placed in pill form and made available to all who have this condition which has no other successful treatment and certainly no cure. I do, however, understand that it can be harmful in the hands of young people. Dad had glaucoma and friends were treated with chemo. I wish they could have received some relief from the THC. It's not approved for medical use here. Love, CD

You are right when you say that there are many people on both sides of the issue. I commend you for your honesty with this piece. If it's not for our children, then there must be control with wisdom...I don't see much of that in the political arena. Keep the honesty in your writing, as it does your work credit! Dan C
