Your poem expresses a lot of feeling and is well expressed. So many of us regret what we never asked and now never can know. But, sometimes what's never been told is for a good reason and better that way. As they say "curiosity killed the cat." --Elaine

Comment from ExperiencingLiphe
I think we all have our skeletons that we hope will just go away with time but the sad thing is that they never do just disappear. They will forever stay with us as long as we let them. Great job

It has to do with all the secrets my Mom kept of her past. Now they are gone forever as her siblings have all died before her as well. Thanks for the great review:)

OMG and a true story as well. Sorry that your mom is gone though. Buried the past. The future is bright for you then.

Comment from Leineco
In this day and age of ancestry tracing and memoir compiling, it's an interesting dichotomy, when the person who has the answers - isn't talking! But then again. . .maybe sometimes skeletons staying in the closet is the best way to put things to rest. I often wonder if it is voyeurism - or true interest, that makes us want to dig up those secrets.
Personally, I am planning on taking mine to the grave with me ;-)

Comment from royowen
I think the person of which you write, Teresa, I have experienced people in my own life like this, however I perceive it was somebody close to you that you speak of! Well written poem, with unfulfilled desires as it's theme, because of the affliction that took the person in question! Great, emotion charged poem, well written, blessings, Roy.

Yes Roy it was about my Mom and the secrets that went to the grave with her as all of her siblings are also deceased. Thanks for the great review:)

I am so jealous that you can down load animated images. When I do it, they just become still pictures. I love your poem and the talk of skeletons. I also have a poem where skeletons broke their silence and told family secrets. Great writing.

Try photobucket.com for your animated photos - find one and click on it, then click in the box that gives the html code - that will copy it then paste it into the body of the poem - don't paste it for the main artwork or it won't work. Thanks for the great review.

And thank you. I'll try it right away.

this is very well written, therese, you did an excellent job writing this free style poem about the skeletons that were locked away with no key given to anyone that knew how to unlock them. is that a picture of you and your son on the profile?

What a very wonderful piece that I enjoyed this morning while sipping on morning coffee. I truly enjoyed this new perspective on this subject. I liked how the last two paragraphs summed everything up. Good job!

Comment from LoannaLois
This is deserving of a sixteen. What a wonderfully written poem of clarity about a subject matter with no clarity. The way you described the hiding of the skeletons in the closet was just brilliant.
