Falsely Accused

convict
                                discouraged, depressed,
                      mudslinging, gossiping, exaggerating,
                         convict, inmate, teacher, father
                             loving, uplifting, inspiring
                                 innocent, exonerated
                                             Daddy

This skillfully goes from disparaging to encouraging, well penned, indeed.

Thank you. I have many children whom I work with who have fathers and mothers who are incarcerated. They usually say "they are on a business trip" but it eventually comes out if I spend a lot of time with them. Most of the children wish to believe it is a false accusation.
