Daddy’s Little Princess Br A Purely Fictional Poem Comments

It was good enough to make my skin clammy.Unfortunately sometimes good poetry means spattering blood on paper. Ngaio Beck

I don't know if such was your intention, but I find this quite reminiscent of Richard Cory by Edwin Arlington Robinson. You put forth that same picture perfect scenario, and then dash it to bits in the last devastating stanza.

I'm glad this is fictional. A cautionary tale indeed, which, though prettily dressed in satin and lace delivers its message loud and clear. Excellent poem. love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

This is a very well thought out poem Mary, a Painful last verse, but lessons are contained there in Love duncan X

This is, without a doubt, one of the most painful poems I have ever read. The beautiful relationship pictured at first...shattered by that last verse and the truth it tells. My heart crashed when I read it, for it tells the truth so painfully....yet so clearly, and in so few words.
