Such a beautiful walk down a lane that we moms out here take occasionally when we don't mind letting the tears fall (preferably when no one else is around...wink, wink). Thank you for the emotional stroll with your pen this morning... Well done, Sarge! ;)

The glass on my patio doors are always covered with fingerprints when the grandchildren have been and your poem made me smile as your words are endearing and honest here, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

This free verse speaks smudges about displaced children, in a free flow of thoughts, in real taletelling, with good word visual and word imagery expresses the story appealing; well said, well done; thanks for sharing this. ALCREATOR

A hint of sentimental feeling going on here. Favorite lines: No trace of the smudges
a life leaves behind.
Messy but irrevocable to the soul.
The crystal soul of mind.
The radio soul of memory.
The soupy soul of heart.
Children do indeed grow up too fast, and keeping them clean is a labor, but of course what needs to be treasured is their every stage.

Powerful piece--this would have been suitable for prose--masterful repetition of smudge imagery--startling phrasing--beaker ... cold sterile reflection. Cheers. LIZ

This is a very nice poem, I really enjoyed the way you used the different parts of the house to describe the child, it's really well done. Your descriptions are very powerful and evocative. Thanks for sharing this and have a great day
