Would you care to C/C on this poem?

Your poetry is fantastic.It has a good rhyme scheme and a sweet melody in it.

Its about a young joyous and peaceful child who is curious to know about his ancestors but he doesn't dare to because he has a respectful belief in them.Brilliant idea,keep writing some melodic and meaningful peaces of poetry.

OMG! I love this poem. Not only have to you done the subject honor with your lovely style here, but the title is just perfect. This is wonderful.

I was just saying to hubby a few days back, that it's so hard not to have the connection to those before me that could've answered so many of the questions I have now at this stage of my life. But like you I, too, wonder if perhaps their struggles are best left to rest. Some things perhaps we shouldn't know after all.

Nice poem, C.

unlike most of the alive, dead people are very discreet; they would

"rather not disclose

the secrets of their graves?"

They can't tell, even if they wanted to. but they may drop by in dreams to give a sign or tow, usually for the seer own good rather than theirs.

Ironically, "If I were gifted with one wish",

I wouldn't know what to wish for.

Thought provoking poem.

"Long talks with my ancestors gone

Awakened for this task."

You're implying that you already gathered much information by talking with your ancestors. But throughout the poem you talk about how you ask them all your questions.

If this was supposed to be a flashback, then you should rephrase that first stanza.

A nice poem. My ancestors cannot tell me what I need to know.

My wish would be for acceptance.

very nice

I enjoyed reading this, thank you!

Great, just plane great.

As usual, as always, your poetry flows. I can't get back beyond my great-grandparents; all their records were destroyed in the Holocaust.
