No signals

When mother tortoise
glances  at her children,
staying at the other end of bank
they get fed sumptuously for that day

When I express in tears
welling my eyes so hard.
It is not to gain undue sympathy
but to feel alike in pain and sorrow
but not to  symbolize any of my fed up stance

    a strong message...

    ...with a great metaphor. This poem has plenty of food for thought and it stirs the emotions well.

    You have written so much so succinctly and effectively

    Well done
