Powerful message in this short poem! But is it a haiku? Haikus are about nature. Fine work! Yours Matthew Anish

Much for the reader to ponder in just three lines. So much truth to your words. Great message! Keep on writing. Karen

Wish there were a way to stop the tears, Laura. Truly, they fall "on deaf ears." Great haiku!

Great write, Laura. I to feel so helpless and unheard at times. If only everyone would put down their weapons at the same time. Let us pray! Love, Dane
