Great job on this senryu. I wish people could realize children do not have the words, much less the understating to express issues even adults cannot fully comprehend.

This one has deep meaning. It has such sad implication. You have described a tragic situation in just a few words. Picture adds to the meaning of the words. Good job!

Wow! All too often this goes unnoticed, even by professionals. A sensitive and timely topic that people would rather sweep under the rug and pretend doesn't exist.

Truly a succinct and truthful point made about the evils of child abuse. So few words with so much power that I wish the world will hear and heed.
