The Scent Of Guilt26 total reviews
Comment from Richard Van Kirk
Well done, very well written. Your description was perfect, I empathized with the character, feeling the dread of the child and the glee of the father. I felt the pain after the shoot and remember my own experience, made raw by this poem. I raised the gun high enough to miss, and let it run! That said, I like the rhythm of your poem, it has a smoothness that carried this reader across the hills and up the tree. It engaged me immediately without distraction.

I'm not a fan of hunting and the pain you put in the poem cuts so deep and feels so real. Thank you for sharing and good luck with the contest and with your writings.

I'm glad I don't hunt. Fishing is my pleasure and I practice catch and release. What a wonderfully written poem and I love the picture.
Good luck in the contest!
Have a great day, and God bless.

Comment from giovannimariatommaso
It's an exciting and excellent poem, well written and phrased, good rhyme scheme, that displays a vision of great imagery of an exhilarating hunt. How many millions of people around the world who are starving would kill for the chance to hunt and be able to feed their families? giovanni
