Comment from Karen Cherry Threadgill
We can feel the raw and bleeding emotion you have given us. We can see and feel the passion you have for your work. We are aware of how you suffer for your cause. This poetry of yours is a living breathing thing. This is a strong poem. Very well done.

Thank you Linda It is hard to ignore the plight of children

This is a well written description of a child alone that reads well. However, for me it does not convey too much actually about fear as it is not written from the child's point of view. It is a beautiful poem nevertheless so good luck in the contest

I understand your point Eleri, I guess I was speaking fir those children I deal with who cannot understand their pain Sometimes adults can't either

I find this most appealing as one can read ones own ideas and interpretations into its meanings. Your tears can only mean change to her demeanor. I find this a good write.

A thought-provoking piece about emotions. You are subtle and intelligent about the relationship with the child here and this reads very well. Well done.

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
Everyone had empathy for a child as they are innocent and vulnerable and our natural instinct is to protect. Unfortunately there are those who would take advantage of children on their own. A poignant write for the contest, I wish you luck, love Dolly x

Thank you, Dolly. It was not so obvious when I was a child. Thank you again for your kind words
