Comment from Evelyn Fort Stewart
So very, very true. Now, I'll tell you something if you won't laugh too hard. it amazes me all the sound affects you are able to do. I hadn't really let the dripping water sink in. so I hear this dripping sound. I have just check every faucet I have, looked everywhere I could imagine I might have a drip. The further I got away from the computer the fainter it became so I came back to the computer, after asking god to help me find the leak and see your dripping water. I told you I'm an old lady and these mod things can trick me. Hope you have a good laugh. I don't know how to do that. God loves you and I do too.

Hah ha, so sorry, Evelyn. You are not the first person to have told me this, and I get a good chuckle out of it each and every time. I used my 3-D Virtual style here because I wanted it to have a hard-hitting impact, be more of a 'show', if you will, than just a 17 syllable piece of poetry. I believe in the subject matter for which it is written that much, and more attention needs to be drawn to it.
Thanks, again, for your wonderful review (still laughin' here, lol...)

Oh so true! I still remember terrible things kids said to me when I was about 10 - scarred me for life. Those little jerks! Great job on your 5-7-5. Love the presentation!

Thanks, as always, MoonMuse. I certainly appreciate that!
Comment from Steve Pantazis
Very appropriate haiku, with a nice twist on the "sticks and stones" saying, but using surgical precision rather than blunt instruments.

Comment from TOMORAL
Whoa, this is so powerful with both the words and imagery. Too many cyber bullies on the internet these days, and they are just cowards who can't confront people face to face so they do it behind a computer screen. What sad people they are. So sorry it happened to your daughter. Please explain to her that these people are just pathetic human beings. Great piece all around. Blessings.

Comment from Senyai
Dean, I know these young people can cut each other mercilessly. The internet is a force for good communication but as with all things can become a weapon. Your poem is poignant and timely. Hope your daughter grows a thick skin and heals from her experience. I know my teenage grandchildren have had their own experiences with this...Great work. Expressive presentation.

Perfect! You hit the nail on the head with very few words.
I'm so sorry about your daughter. It hurts parent as much as recipient. Why so much of it? Your graphics (with and without sound) amaze me. :-)

I was drawn to your piece by the title. It grabbed me and made me want to see what you had written. I loved the color and vivid imagery you created. The message is one of truth and your authors notes created emotion in me. I'm sorry your daughter had to endure such cruelty. She is lucky to have you to give perspective. Thanks for sharing this.

Thw whole presentation with pictures and author notes really adds to your 5-7-5. Bullies online are really terrorists, in that they don't kill you, just keep the torture going on and on. Wonderfully written with awesome pictures. Superb! Les

Comment from Cookie333
Wow, gaping open wounds-emotional or physical, much is left to the reader's mind to ponder with such few words.
I thank you for sharing, and hope that your daughter has regained her 'self'
