Post a CommentVery well said. Some of my students in the past have been victims. They would cry because they could not see their mom or dad due to things like tossing them out of the car when the car was still going. Hard to explain parents are away to get better.
If I could vote in the Purple Haiku contest, I'd give this haiku the nod. Well done.
Very sad! Thank you.
My first thought on what to write about was abuse, also. Good job on your haiku!
too sad, too true!
Heart wrenching haiku about such sadness.
So sad. All too true at times.
Heart-wrenching!
PV love. In Beaumont, TX. Mom and I are not feeling well at all.
That's the worst kind of 'purple' but a subject we should all try to protect our children from. So sad.
