Children Of War

A most disturbing poem about the innocence of children and how they are affected by the world around them. It also seems a metaphor for people in general that are helpless under the actions of governments that control their lives. Very nicely written.

The innocence of childhood is often punctuated by their exposure to its pain and injustice. Children are a symbol of all people’s helplessness under governments, ulterior motives, and unjust actions. Very nicely written.

A rough hard look at modern Christmas. Great write.
As for the rest... to whom and how shall I give?

The true meaning of Christmas has long gone. It has now become so commercialized it is a worry for many families, how they will get by. A time of over indulgence when there is so much suffering and poverty and loneliness in the world. A fabulous write. Your lines flow beautifully and you get the message across. Well done.

You have hit on the head the very issue of Christmas. It should be a time of giving not receiving and yet in our consumer society all we think of is what we can get. A lovely poem that expresses the true spirit of Christmas.

A highly compelling piece that challenges readers to look beyond their immediate surroundings and act with compassion and generosity.. After all it is all too easy to forget what Christmas is really all about. Thanks for sharing.

Wonderful write! I have a very eclectic ear and, truth be told, was listening to a lot of 60s and 70s music back in July. The Doors, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, David Bowie, ABBA, Donna Sommer, The Carpenters, Donovan, The Beatles, The Stones, Queen, Black Sabbath (of course), Neil Diamond, Chic, The Young Rascals, etc...had a whole playlist going! All this to say, well done my friend and thank you for bringing back my own memories of the summer and great music!

Okay, so I double backed and went to the previous poem and our conversation about it. Boy, this feels like there is a bit of a step back moment, still emotional but more in control (sorry for this unencompassing word, ironic to its meaning, in this context) but still exudes the evocative expression.

Saying goodbye as often a very difficult thing to do. We form attachments that are not easily broken. This poem emphasizes such feelings. Very nicely written.

Homelessness can happen to anyone. We should never forget that and show some compassion. Not wise to give money as that can be spent on addictions. But drinks, food , clothes and blankets a yes yes. Nicely composed stanzas. Lines flow smoothly.
