This poem is well written. I enjoyed reading your poem. There are so many kids that have been sexually abused. This is a poem you are writing, right? Great job on this

hi, Brenda. Thank you for your kind review. I didn?t understand your question and your review were you asked if this was a poem I am writing. I wasn?t sure where that was coming from.

Sorry, I didn't word it right. I was asking if this is fiction?
-
It?s non fiction

What a lovely and captivating poem! I love the mental image the words painted. The rhyme scheme is spot on, and the literary devices are amazingly incorporated. I love the image used to accompany this poem. Well done!

Comment from Jodi Ann Anderson
Oh so sad. This was a well written poem. The gross part was when he used to see her every night right after mama made her rounds. This probably happens way more than we realize. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from royowen
I think the most despicable thing in the world is the sexual abuse of a child, it probably takes a lifetime sentence for them to overcome it, it is the worst crime, a child deserves nurture, protection and the love of a family for normality, another first class effort Pam, blessings Roy

This verse veered into an unexpected theme. The anger that wells up in me at the thought of sexual child abuse is strong and I pray that all little children are protected from such hideousness. Great job on the rhyme and metrical rhythm, Pam.

A powerful metaphor to highlight the pirating of childhood innocence by, as so often is the case, the very people who should be protecting it. A well crafted poem.

Comment from Jesse James Doty
Child abuse takes on many forms. Emotional is one of them that takes its toll on the children close to the parent who shows their love in peculiar ways. This story within a poem sets it straight and drives right through my heart. I feel her pain. I feel it deep and so, it goes on and on. Her fight to save his truth shows within the soul of the poetic verse.
