HI Grace,
Great poem. Some suggestions - as you wish. {} delete [] add I saw him crouched {upon} [by] the busy road{side}, In dreams his palm, {was still} outstretched in hope. This child whose dusky face was so angelic {Was} fettered to his mother by a rope. {Then} as I watched, he stirred, {and}[his] eyelids opened, Revealing eyes that spoke of many things, Of lovelessness {and}[yet] unrelenting hunger, Framed by an aura[,] which to the valiant clings. Compassion stirred from deep within my being, {My} heart was pounding loud within my breast. What could I do? How {help}[to] relieve his suffering? {But}[only] toss a coin –[ ]and pass by like the rest? Any use? All the best, James. |
