Intriguing but not totally understandble. My inkling is: though the parent may nurture, in good faith, it may be in vain and the child is left powerless to change. Kenny

THANKS FOR PROFESSIONAL REVIEW.
Comment from Caressa_08
This is an easy read with much depth, that can carry one into a parental situation that children don't always comprehend though taught & caressed, in a loving way, they, the children might rebel & parents might feel shame toward them at times, though it happens,which is not in your poem, around puberty & beyond...the most prevalent time..At least it was for me after raising 3 adults, they are now..

THANKS FOR YOUR NICE PROFESSIONAL REVIEW.
Comment from visionary1234
I gifted life, blood,
Light, sleepless-restless day-nights,
As caressed, taught words.
My word may hurt, you fear to
Disown me. Shame, how wonder -
ok Al - I've got the first 3 lines, and even the 4th, though you don't explain why the fear of disowning. But the last "Shame, now wonder!" is a mystery to me, sorry!

THANKS FOR GOOD REVIEW.
Comment from vkmack
We are all filled with fear of hurt and pain from others and in need of life blood. Love the phrasing for "sleepless-restless day-nights" when it all flows into one with no discernment. This is so creative and imaginative! Great work. Thanks for the explanatory notes.

Certainly, you are right. How to interpret life depends on person basis and the than situation. Lovely piece of work

THANKS FOR THIS REVIEW.
Comment from Ekim777
Your background words remind me of the great poet Eliot, when he says:" Where is the life, we have lost in living?
I find it difficult to connect up your platitudes but I suppose a deeply felt love needs to be a little disjointed and sporadic. I think the basic question is how does love survive our inner fears, guilt and shame. On the other hand, only love can help us survive these things.-Ekim777

THANKS FOR QUEST REVIEW.
Comment from OLA THOMAS
Good persoanl form of presnetation. I wonder at the strong words sounding like a form of admonition from a bitter mother to an unappreciate child. Good work.

THANKS FOR TRUTHFUL REVIEW.
Comment from Treischel
This Poe,m has the structure of a Naani. The message is about family. Genetics are carried in the blood. Sometime the grown child sees things more clearly and comes into conflict with parents. Might be disowned. You bring this forward with phrasing and imagery. Abbreviated, yet organized.

Comment from Righteous Riter
The message is clear and to the point. The passion of the writer is felt. This piece is short, sweet and to the point.
