Posted by Kara Hayostek on 03/17/04 at 02:45 PM Interesting Poem, nice rhyme...sounds like a lonely child. |
Posted by Glenn Currier on 03/17/04 at 02:48 PM The rhyme IS well done and plants the image of a child on my tongue as I read this mature reflection of childmusings. Brilliant, indeed. |
Posted by Trisha De Gracia on 03/18/04 at 06:49 PM I've never encountered an idea like this, taking childmusings and putting them in a poem, but very maturely, even with a "cutesy" kind of rhyming scheme. I really like the effect you've created here. Awesome work. |

Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 03/19/04 at 10:57 PM A truly haunting piece, with a sadness that cuts right through to the soul. Adds new meaning to that old saying, "children should be seen and not heard," although yours goes even deeper by subtly saying they shouldn't be seen either. An all too true reflection of too many families nowadays. Kudos for the thought provoking poetry! |

Posted by Dave Fitzgerald on 12/15/06 at 06:26 PM I have to agree with all of the above... but I wanted to say, what a sad story
