Unanswered Cries

Hearts broken,
dreams shattered.
Daddies gone,
mommies hurting.
Despair

Author notes

contest prompt.. 9 words to answer this question "Father, why are all the little children weeping....?"

My mother taught me if you have nothing nice to say don't say it at all. We are not here as pros, we are here to share our art and have fun. *grin*

    A powerful reponse to the prompt. I am always amazed when I read something that says so much in so few words, as this poem does so wonderfully. Great job and I enjoyed this poem very much. Blessings, Patty

    What a sad answer to a very complex
    question. In all of our problems, it is
    the children who suffer the most. good
    luck in the contest.
