Great write on what happened, Mark.

Thanks Mark for asking me to read this poem. I did not find this offensive. This is a moving topical piece that will surely resonate.

Resonates. Well written.

Agree with Mr Darcy a moving topical piece. Sometimes you have to capture such moments so they are never forgotten. Milly x

So sad but beautifully penned Mark. x

This is extremely beautiful yet so sad and one that packs a real hard punch in the gut with fantastic imagery as ever

Mark,
Another wonderful piece of writing from you, a sad flow theme, but great to read
Well done fella
Michael :)

What a very sad piece...it's the first I've read since this horrible event took place. I like how you have managed to keep the tone of the poem somber throughout, it works so well with your word choice.

Sadly, I don't think it will be the last atrocity unless the gun laws are changed.

Such a sad piece and you did a wonderful job. Where is this world going with these evil people living in. All the very best.
