Oh my. This one bites deeply into the heart of the teacher in me. Painful truth in this no-apologies 5-7-5. The art you found to accentuate it is equally haunting. Excellent work, Mystery poet. Good luck.

I like 'echoes of silence' - that's a great, impactful line. I'm not sure whether they are unnoticed or simply ignored, but either way, it's a painful situation. Very nicely expressed.

I liked very much the enjambment you used in this short syllabic poem. It is a device that lifts your poem above and beyond the norm. Good luck in the contest. Kate xx

A paradox in itself that there can be echoes of silence. Very sad that children are falling through the cracks - they need their adults to be their voice. Best wishes for your entry.

Our children are the future yet are so often left in limbo by the ones who should be caring for them. As adults, we often fail our children in so many ways. This is nicely written. I wish you the best in the contest.

This is great. Although sad, your words are true and needs to be brought to the forefront of society. The phrase, "echoes of silence" is chilling and dramatic. Your little poem makes a big impact on me. This is a great entry for the prompt!
