Well executed and spot on.
You've addressed a touchy
subject with dignity and
sensitivity with your accomplished
pen. Easy read, nice flow, no spags
or nits. Lora

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written Triolet. There are people in our lives who are not worth a single tear for many different reasons and we have the right to feel that way.

How very true. Some parents don't deserve the right to have their children visit or to mourn their loss. My mother is a perfect example of one who deserves nothing. Your reviewers have made a good point. Well written, my friend~Debbie

Comment from Joan E.
The fractured face in the artwork you selected is particularly telling. Your triolet's theme is touching and the repeated line is quite compelling. Sad but true for some... -Joan

Comment from Brigittes13
Wow!! First, thanks for using my photograph. :) Second, it is so interesting to see different artist interpret a photograph or art work. Your piece here says so much! And I'm sure many can relate to it. Very real, and heavy poem. Makes the reader think. Great job.

Hi Brigitte, thank you for the use of your photograph. I realise it wasn't meant to portray a victim of abuse, but when I found it I knew it would reflect so if I wrote the right words. Thank you also for your comments and kind and generous review. Warmest regards, Marijke :o)
Comment from Dawn of Tomorrow
Yep, well worded triolet. Not all people are missed when they pass, but from their own faults, tis a shame life is like that for some. I love how you worded this.

Comment from Dean Kuch
Hey, Marijke, as much as we'd all like to wish that everything is always honkey-dorey between a child and their parents, sadly that's not always the case. Sometimes, parents abuse their privilege and violate their children's trust.
Nice triolet.
Very well composed.

Comment from Douglas Paul
This is a powerful poem, Marijke. It speaks well to the situation where child abuse, sexual abuse, has occurred in someone's life. I can see why they would not shed any tears

Comment from Dutchie
Very well written triolet my dearest friend. Yes indeed a different point of view, which I can understand, seen the circumstances.
When your parent(s) caused a lot of fear and pain, you will think that way.
Poem flows well with a great repeating line.( I never can find a catchy one, so I gave up )Great job, Marijke!! Lots of love and smiles from miles. Fietje xxxx

Hi Fietje. Thank you for this lovely string of stars for this sad Triolet. I had to write this one after the other one... to see things from another Point of View (POV). Thanks again, dear friend, and miles and miles of sunny smiles from Tassie. Warmest regards, Marijke :o)
