This is a terrible story, though well written. Because it happens, often. You have certainly put all your cards on the table, and didn't hold back on what happened to this poor child. Why? Why would a human being with an ounce of heart hurt someone forever as this will live in her memory her whole life long. You took a terrible situation and brought it to the attention of all who read this. Lord, watch out for small children in their innocence because they can't fight back. Awful story, well written.

Very well written although very sad subject. I think you capture the horror of abuse in a very potent way in this short poem. I continue to hope that awareness will make a change for these little ones. Great job tackling a tough subjet.

Yes, this poem goes straight to the heart, and we can never have enough poems and prose that brings enough light to this horrible injustice to our children. I loved the straightforward approach that you took with this, as well as the minimal use of words. Very effective.

Oooh, this is really creepy...just like those that abuse children in such sick fashion.

No spag, great form, good flow.

Kids never do get past that, it seems. So sadly true. :) Carrie

This is very well done. I have not seen many poems on this subject. LOTS of books but not poems. This would be a good advert for a childrens charity.

Your message is excellent and was delivered with passion. Your last two verses has a proper meter and rhythm to appreciate your rhyme scheme. Your 2nd, 3rd, & 4th verses are not well organized for rhyme or rhythm but they contribute in a significant way to your theme and message.

Oh, how unbelievably gut-wrenching. I feel the young child's pain and despair, angry that this happens to steal innocence and ruin life forever. A well-written piece, which brought out many emotions. Not only because of the devastating subject, but by the excellent way the words were put together. Well done!

This work has reached the exceptional level

This is very good,so sad but tells such a magnifisant story. I get mad just hearing the words. Such people must anger God. Good words that flow well with good rhyming. Very well written.

    Thank you so much GW. Unfortunately they are in all walks of life and need to be highlighted. If we could save at least one child I'd be happy.

Mo chara! I haven't got a six, I'm afraid. The art work is stunning, and the perfect accompaniment to your fabulous poem! You're a star.
