so true...great ending :)

a good one for the abortion issue, Robert. I just want to thank you again for appreciating the work I put into that betrayal story. Though I'm not using it in the contest, that is beside the point. I LOVE how these contests simply inspire us to WRITE!! dont you?? (too bad we ddin't even really know about videos in the 60's so I could have got a tape of my mom clapping. hahaha)

If everyone realized the simplicity of truth in these three short lines, there would be no abortion. Well done my friend. Mac

We all know what this is about My friend... Well written and tells a story in a few words...Well done...Taz

That's for sure.Like they tell me keep the pen flowing.I am trying.

Terrific Haiku Robert >> James

Remarkable write !simply splendid haiku!

How long have you been writing? Are you fron the United States?

Ouch, now that one makes you think deep - very effective write! Well done. Thanks for your welcome comments re Brian's contest! Merry Christmas 2009 and a Happy New Year 2010 to both you and yours! xx Anna-Marie.

Such a powerful write! in so few words--you made such a statement--hopefully more people realize this as well...thanks a swell for your comments on my poetry :)

If more people read things like this, I think it'd be more difficult to agree with abortion rights... This just leaves you with a deep dark, somber feeling... and I'm pro-choice, so you've done this very nicely. =P

interesting, our styles obviously differ, love the quick but poignant point

Poignant piece in so few words...wow....powerful and a great message conveyed!! Thanks so much for sharing and for your always kind comments~Mary

Wow.. excellent haiku Robert... great thought here... enjoyed the idea of womb and baby's tomb ... powerful thought... thankxxx for this classic... and for your great comments (smile) on my poetry.. I may look into that commentating job as I am pretty dangerous with a microphone.. blessings... luv.. Linda-Marie, P.E.P.S. "Sweetheart"

Amen! What a wonderful message in just three lines. I really like the uplifting second line. Blessings to you for sharing you thoughts with us. Thank you for your kind comment. Karen

Great Haiku! My belief also. Thank you for sharing this Robert! God bless. Thank you for reading and commenting on my poems! Peace and love, Audrey

Wow...Amazing...So much said in such few words....Wow!

A very powerful message Robert. Like the way you think. A great Haiku. Love Light Patty

very well put.hope all is well.

Strong Pro statement Robert! Concise and accurate! Nice!

Sad Haiku. The word needs to be spread so that abortion will no longer be a means of planned parenthood. Keep the magical pen flowing. Thanks for stopping by and commenting on my work. Sara

Yes a good haiku against abortion..i agree.Charma

A powerful write from your blessed heart, Robert! If I had ever been blessed with conception, I would not have allowed my womb to become "a baby's tomb." Strong, clear statement in this excellent write! Love, Carolyn
