I think it may be safe to say that some women are just not meant to be proper mothers! Yes, very unhygienic! And I think I too would have been able to pick out either of my sisters on FaceBook . . . if I had a mind to join. But I don't . . .

The first part is so true. Things are so dirty compared to 'once upon a time'. Oh I loved the poem. It is so good to be active on here again. I missed reading and writing more now.

Re: Clever moms tie a string to it...
Yes I would imagine so but not too long or it might get twisted around their necks. Didn't the mothers in the past use a little bag of sugar. Before your time probably. I suppose the writer hopes a poem will whisper through a sensitive mind. No use putting it on Face book.

Re: CCT

Well some are so young Naut they look like they should still be sucking a dummy. Evidently that phase has run its course younger girls seem to realise it is a one way drift to boredom. Well so my sister says. The girls think the poem is sad.

Re: cct

Re: FS
I hope they are much cleaner when they leave F.S. I expect you get a bit of flotsam.

Re:
Well you tell me Kabu perhaps she did not know much about babies, one night stands do not give one much experience if one is sweet sixteen

Re:
I must remember that advice Taps it should be on a large notice for mothers to read. I must look at the last line I keep forgetting, what a rabbit.

Re: Purple Purse
I is not difficult if one is under stress PP. Kind of a double vision of events and wondering which is the right one, well something like that. If it's any comfort I have felt similar illusions.

Re: Vermont
Well sir I am going through old poems and trying to cut out anything too vague. We all write lousy stuff at times and it is only by listening to intelligent people that one can gauge a reaction. I hate it when folk say it is good when one does not agree.One gentleman used to criticize on here it was painful but that's life.

I think ''Thorn Woman'' is one of your more impressive poems that I have read.

You're right, dirt was cleaner years back.
Any day now, they're going to revoke the 6-second rule. I love the thorn woman poem, especially the surprise ending. And the two nests with nine blue eggs.

The poem to me is hauntingly familiar. I see myself sometimes as if I were seeing someone I did not know.

You always manage to have a really great last line for your poems.
I agree with Kabu. That child needs a ribbon on her dummy pinned to her clothing.

Good for you re the dummy. Why doesn't she get one of those ribbons and pin it to the child's clothing.

i have also seen mothers put the binkie in their own mouths to clean them off, but i like ciels idea of a ribbon tied to the stroller no to the baby or around his neck but just long enough to go the the babies mouth.
the poem, i usually do not comment to much on the poems, but i agree this is a hauntingly sad poem.

Clever moms tie a string to it...
just in case the kid spits it out or swallows.
The poem moves me, and makes me a little sad for the Thorn Woman and the Wandering Sparrow.
