Why do people (like me) have so many problems communicating. We tend to hide behind the "Doing Great" mask. What a wonderfully written poem.
Good luck in the contest!
Have a great day, and God bless.

I enjoyed reading your poem. You did a great job with the elephant in the room and the family not addressing issues. I do not see any need for improvement. Have a blessed day.

and why we feel that we can't is the problem!!! We need to not only talk about what's going on, but put our vote where our mouth is. (or our thoughts are). I need to check your bio and see where you're from before I assume you're from the US. Back in a mo. :)

Thanks for the review. It is a problem that so many topics are so hard to discuss. I'm from Canada. Thanks for your thoughts.

yes, I found out that you you were , and added to my comment, but apparently it wasn't added. Anyway, I liked your poem.
Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
So good. Such simple imagery but all the more touching as a result. It's clever and immensely sad and so succinctly illustrates your notes. I really enjoyed this and would add nothing on which to work. Thanks and good luck, Debbie

Comment from Bill Schott
This free verse, The Elephant in the Room, notes that the condition is bound to get worse as problems exist, but no one is talking. There may come a herd of the unheard.
