Hi oldefoggie. I enjoyed this poem but I did find line 16 very awkward. I think it needs a bit of re-writing but apart from that, I enjoyed it.

beautiful and sad poem reflecting how little people can care for others and how often they will not give the other the care they need or see past a person's appearance. so sad.

Thank you for your kind review. It is rewarding to know the reader feels the emotion one tries to convey. Thank you, markk.

I do love the questions and thoughts that you present in this poem. It flow quite well, too.
I think I've asked many of these questions, myself. And I've wanted it to come to a breathtaking conclusion. And it does - not about others, but about what is (I've) made of the situation. I won't go on - you've described your emotions quite well. We all must search, and you are searching ... well.

Living is a life long search inside our selves. I wanted to put the experience into words. Your review tells me that my narrator did just that. Thank you for your kind words.
Comment from juliaSjames
You raise an interesting issue in your poem. Why don't some of us fit in? Why are human beings judgemental? I agree that introspection is necessary. But moreso, self-confidence is required. We are all perfect children of a living God, and we need to claim our royal heritage, regardless of the opinion of the world.

What a soul searching poem this is! Sadness and lonliness come through clearly in each verse.The rhymes are good and the self-analytical musing is well done. A sad poem but a good poem, too

Comment from cunninglinguist
Well done.9-10 stanzas is no small feat.The words are deep and real but some of the themes repeat themselves and I personally think it coneys no new thoughts. The artwork with the write is also great and catchy. Thanks for sharing

Thank you for your review. When you say it conveys no new thoughts, are you referring to the poem itself or to a particular verse. The reviews help me to improve my work, so I am most interested in what you are referring to. Thank you.

Your poem is soo sad because I don't think anyone should be shunned so badly. Most likely they are intimiated by our goodness. I think they are to blame.

Comment from jadapenn
I loved your self-exploratory poem. I think many of us can relate to this and ask what have I done so wrong? In our modern world friends are hard to come by and keep. It is sad that they pass up this gift of friendship. Everyone grows old and then loneliness moves in.
Well written and presented. luv jada
