Hello Walter.

I enjoyed this poem. I must admit, I never saw the ending the way you described it. I thought it would she would just not turn up because she didn't love you. The opposite was, in fact, true.

This is not just a well told story, but a message to those of us who use our phones whilst driving. It's dangerous and like in your poem, people die from doing so.

Well done.

very nice poem. wow!

Best poem really. Well written.

Walter this is a very hard hitting and painful write to read because it happens all too often and usually the people drinking/texting and driving don't actually die it's others who are infact at the wrong place at the wrong time who do... I couldn't imagine witnessing this wreckage or being the police constable who told the beloved that their loved one isn't coming home tonight and all for what?not taking a few extra seconds to pull over and answer a message or to leave the message until they got home?? There's nothing worse in my eyes than using a mobile or drink/drug driving... Anyway your piece was really well rhymed, I have to admit a little it loses it's way but you get it back and it doesn't take away the fact that all in all it's a really great piece.
Take care

Walter a well rhymed piece. A tale that gently flows then ends on a twist and with a valid message
that reminds us all of the perils of texting at the wheel. It still staggers me to see people still with phones to their ears whilst driving despite the publicity about it breaking the law. Well done on an excellent piece of writing that also helps to raise awareness of this issue and the potential repurcussions. Best wishes Milly x
