another good one. I cab't believe how romantic it is. Yes, it is a bit of a heavy that most men wouldn't understand. Yet it is worded so lovely.

Another winner in my books. Love the strong language of your work. It drags you down the page forcing your reader to participate. I like that. Thanks for sharing xoxo Kiwi

Comment from JeJo
You have correct naani form, with four lines and twenty-two syllables. That which is good can be just as bad, or turn on you just as it can favor you. That is a sad aspect of life, but one that we can cope with, for the benefits of love outweigh the detriments of love misused. I like the end rhymes you added, which give this poem a smooth rhythm. You express the outcome of love that hurts, as "horrific" "monstrous" and "tragic" Excellent word choices throughout. Great work, and good luck in the contest. All the best, JeJo

Ah you describe well the overwhelming grief of abandonment:
Oh love's horrific
wake of devastation
Monstrous and tragic
without provocation
Love the use of "monstrous" and "horrific" ... and so it must have seemed for a three year old

Comment from Triple P
Heartbreaking poem (and even more heartbreaking author's notes) - so sorry to hear about that.
Wonderful use of language - very visual representation of the tragedy that can occur from 'love.'

Even before I read the author's notes I felt the tragic sense of of loss. I don't know about you, but I've left a wake I'm not particularly proud of, too. I hope you have recoveed.
Peace, Lee

Reading the author's notes gave me the specifics on the love that was written about in this poem. I can see many more applications to the causes and the sorrow here.

A work like this can only come from a place of personal pain. I'm so sorry about your mom and your father. Life really does take us through our own private hells. Your emotions are so strong in these phrases, and I appreciate you sharing them with us.

A great naani, with a great message....
Love can either build up or destroy......
There are repercussions that can last a lifetime...
monstrous and tragic.....
without provocation....... very thought provoking..

Wonderful job. My heart goes out to you and your pain. Love can leave terrible scars. They have a tendency to shape us too.
