Interesting comments on the subject matter and nicely constructe, drives one to want more details about the subject matter and details on the girl mentioned if true. Good Luck in the contest and may God Bless you and the missing girl mentioned.

Descriptive and indeed could well be a horrible, scary situation for parents to be locked into: a missing child with bloody footprints found. Tells a complete, albeit, not so pleasant story.

Hello Chip: Your short 5-7-5 says so much about a horrible situation that is running rampant all around the world, especially here in the States. I don't know the exact number each year, but I imagine it would be staggering.

Congratulations on a great win...Bill

Not sure how I missed this one until now, but this was great, Chip. A well deserved win in the contest. It had a whole story in just a few words. Nice job.

"Snow Globe," is short, succinct and very much to the point. This talented poet's work was a pleasure to both read and review. To me, This is a six, but unfortunately I only have fives left. I look forward to reading and reviewing your next post.

You've managed to tell a whole story in just a few words.
Thanks so much for sharing.

This was pretty creepy Chip, I mean really... tiny red footprints... missing girl, snow... forsaken... shaken, all of these words provoke the worst images that a mother like myself can possibly imagine...

You have made excellent use of all your syllables in this moving
5-7-5 on a very timely, SAD subject. In the United States, 800,000 children are reported missing yearly, 2,000 DAILY! No wonder your entry won!

Good job, Mystery Author, with your contest entry. Your syllable count is correct per line. You give readers much to think about with your few syllables. That is a good thing but the outcome of your poem not so much. The animated picture works well. Best wishes. Jan
