Thank you for sharing your reflections about how parents and children may misunderstand one another. I am not clear on the last line with the use of "how wonder"--maybe "we wonder" would convey the thought. -Joan

I can't decide if you are a genius or if you have trouble with the English language.

I suspect the first one.

This poem brings to mind a parent's full range of emotions over the love of a child.

You write cryptically in a fashion that's hard to follow. I like my reads to be enjoyable and not too much of a challenge. Is it about God and what he gives us... Honestly - I've no idea. Give us a clue!

This is a new form of a poem that I have not used or seen before. You did a great job in bringing your emotion to the front and allowing the reader to feel the emotions. Great Job and I look forward to reading more.

The trials and sacrifices of a parent is written in terse lines.life,sleepless nights,hopes caring all come from parent .in the end results may be unhappy.'how wonder' doesnt feel right.'what pity' or something on that meaning should be there -my opinion.

I gifted life, blood,
Light, sleepless-restless day-nights, << How does one give "light"?
As caressed, taught words. << "As caressed"? Where does this fit in with "taught words"?
My word may hurt, you fear to
Disown me. Shame; how wonder! << "how wonder" makes no sense at all... is it another abbreviated phrase to make the correct syllable count?

This is very hard to read, let alone understand. A good poem of any length or style must read SMOOTHLY.

I appreciate the sentiment. Your word choices are strong but your syntax is confusing and disrupts the flow and cadence i.e. shame; how wonder...
Also, your use of enjambment in the fourth line interrupts the thought, somehow separating it from itself.
Very best to you, k
