I really enjoyed reading your poem. It is written with wisdom, heartfelt emotion and sincerity. It delivers a powerful message, by asking the questions that churn around in our minds most of the time. Well done!

'Your turn with the Soap' is an well-written and extremely thought-provoking piece of writing. This talented poet has me dredging my conscience with his rhetorical questions. Only time and the way I felt could produce a true answer. It was a pleasure to both read and review this unusual and 'take-me-back-in-time' work.

This is so thought provoking snd so totally in contrast to your last love poem I read. I will say that yes we are all God's children. But, in the end it's a matter of if we have un- adpoted ourselves from HIM. Is there such a word as un-adopted? lol. Just trying to get my point across. Don't wash my mouth out with soap please? Great imagery and good poem.

Excellent message. Even as adults we fail to speak the most important messages to us. Great work and wonderful word choice adding to the poem.

I like your comparison of children's lies compared to adults and when they lie. Maybe we need to wash some adults mouths out with soap. It couldn't hurt. I think if we knew how much we were lied to in a single day we couldn't believe it. Even unspoken words that should be spoken are lies. The poem does what a good poem should do and that is make you think. ann

A very well written poem with many ideas to make one think. When read out loud it has a nice cadence and sounds lyrical. Well done, Ian

I hear what you're saying! To complain, to be negative..yet truthful- or to give em what they want to hear, and be a 'positive' person- causing no ripples.Loved this writing- a lot of deep truthful meaning. Betty

I would love to have someone to share my feeling with, and who would listen and comfort me, but that is not the person in my life. I'm not sure very many of those exist, so not telling them anything may be a lie, but it saves the fight. Great job.
