I Never Saw Her Cry. Poem by Ann Beard

Such emmotion pours from each word. Lovely poem Ann. Andrew x

Ann, Your poem is not only well written, it is particularly sensitive to the subject of your poem. A couple house keeping chores: I think you want to close the quotes after the word, 'alone'. Where the word 'there, s' appears, I think you want 'there's'. Keep writing on these sensitive subjects. Thank you for your comments on my poem, 'We Sailed on With Happy Hearts.'

You really did an excellent job putting across the pain and love felt as this brave woman spent her last breaths.

Excellent Anne I can fully appreciate the feelings here and also the way in which it is written Jim

Heart wrenching by the bucket loads... some ends of life are tenderly balanced by the drips of morphine that replaces the stole-end tears... Not only were your hands able to reach out and hold comfort but you are able to write words that can continually be passed on

Dear friend Ann, I have read this poem before, but it moved me too much to comment. Now I return to say thank you for sharing it with us. If a poem is well written it is good. If it can also link the reader and poet emotionally, it is excellent. Irene

This is a wonderful poem. Iove your rhym scheme and it's all so natural. This is my kind of poem. Ron
