Wow... such a powerful message in just four stanzas. I am so impressed with this and touched with it. I shall be adding it to my favorite poems. I just love how it flows and keeps you interested until the very end.

I have never felt so in touch with a poem that I did not write until this one.

Beautifully written.

Well, MaryAnne, there isn't much I can see that would make sense...and not because I don't understand this piece but because I understand it perfectly. The need to have something as a child and the continuing urgency to receive it as an adult, the mind is not of age but of matter and we all deal with things differently, but many of the ways are not always the best.

A deep, powerful, intimate and anxiously penned piece, it speaks of such anger and hate, of pain and confusion, it radiates an energy that is both sad and disturbing...you have once again blown me away.

WOW

MA you always find such creative topics to write about, and then you bring it to life in a truly beautiful way. I love your opening about light balancing out nightmare and anxiety.

So often we wish to craft and create our worlds, our lives, and the people in it - but know we never can. Instead, we are the canvas being molded. I actually really felt a spiritual connection to this piece in bits and pieces. I don't know if that was your intention, but I found a lot of God-like opportunities here :) Beautifully written!

MaryAnne . Off the chain ;)
