Great ...Robin.
This one is great ! I feel sad about all those little faces. I wish I could save them, if i can.

U know something, When I was small I used to pray seriously to God to give me superpowers so that I can save those in need, like Super Man. Now I know he is the one !

I think and feel that maybe I have a gentle heart.

Take care...

Innocent Babes
Intense Haiku...I remember a beautiful two year old girl who had been taken away from her two abusive parents...only to have the judge give her back...she never got to be three...My heart breaks for those babes...let's hope something can be done soon for those kids...Kacee

horror haiku
Probably what appeals to me most in the construction of this haidu is lies/eyes, not because they rhyme, but because they rhyme incidentally, and the syllables can be elongated, attracting to that exact point in the poem, a sense of slowing down for tenderness...

Very well executed!

robin and horror


Well, aside this being yours, what really caught my eyes was "horror".

But this makes me think of the innocence one is born with and later tainted, and aborted way too soon.

Touching Robin,

Laura

Haiku Horror...
This was inspired by a pretty little face I seen on Tv/news, little 10 yr old girl, from Oklahoma...In Memory Of, as they played, "In The Arms Of An Angel"(matters not what the songs really about), anyway I cried my eyes out, kicked the couch and cried some more...that monster butchered that baby, speculation is he was going to eat her..."I say string him up and burn him at the stake."
There is no excuse for hurting children!


Gsvk...I think you do have a gentle heart, and I love your childhood story, thanks for sharing.

Kacee...I know how you feel about protecting children, I know from past comments how upset you can get when children are harmed, me too. Always, Ka Ma Ma

Lucie...You got just what I tried to do, I know this came about from gruesome circumstances, but, laws aren't changing fast enough...Thanks Much

Laura...You never cease to amaze me, I loved your take on this and yes very well it fits, too...you are the one and only you, miss you.

take care of our babes...
Robin

victims
me too felt pity for those victims.. victims of bloody human wars :kids in plastine, iraq and victims of world of cruelty, like the one u mentioned ...etc .. all of them came to my mind when i read ur haiku
it s good point to consider them and including them in writing...
thanks for sharing
all the best.Hiba

fairgrace...
you said it and even expanded the loss of what is our future...our children, their innocent eyes...when I was little I thought grownups were the greatest people, till life teaches but, children think we, as adults are great, maybe old, but great...we should take dear care of that thought...

Thanks much,
Robin

Horror
Very well written. I feel that even the most subtle forms of child abuse should stop. Why does it take the most grusome of horrors to get our attention. From this horror to simple NEGLECT which, in my opinion, is just as heinous. Our children need an advocate. Are our laws doing enough? I don't think so.
