Sue, this poem is thought-provoking and resonated with me. In fact, I read it three times.

I love the rhyme scheme, word choice, imagery and metaphor usage.

It was my pleasure indulging in your essence of your words.

Wish I had a six to award this deep and poignant poem that tells the story of so many lives. Very nice rhythm and rhyme, perfect flow. Great job.

If you are new at writing , it certainly does not show here. The only suggestion I would dare give is to shorten the longer lines some. Just my personal feel on it, It takes nothing away from the work.

Very well done!

I liked how your work followed through the relationship and I thought your rhyme pattern was neat, it seemed to bring the poem even more together as a whole. Great work!

Interesting image selection. Good presentation and color scheme. Good use of rhythm and rhyme. The lines flow well. A sad commentary. The shattered emotions came through well. Nice job.

Sue - What a sad poem of love lost and rejection. I enjoyed the memories of the past and the ongoing conflict. Well written as always. Charlie

So sad and so true. It makes it hard to read knowing that this happens to so many families. It's a wonder anybody trusts anybody enough to start a life and a family together. I liked the form, made it easy to read with perfect pauses. Great job, Sue as usual.

So true of so many families that it almost hurts to see it in print - I can hardly imagine what it would be like in person -especially with six(?) kids.
Kind of made me think of John & Kate +8 LOL
Great writing
warm regards,

This was a very sad but all too true poem. Pride will destroy even the strongest foundation or bond. I enjoyed the poem and the rhythem was good.
