from Kelly:
Excellent! The photo works well in this context. .....and I forgive your 'poetic license'! Ha!
from Hamid:
Mamnun majid jon, very good poem.
from Tom Lombardo:
Excellent and timely poem "The Mask." Thanks for keeping me on your list. Hope you and your family are well. So far, so good here in Atlanta.
from Casey:
Face masks are more fierce than swords these days. And there is nothing like a mother's love.
Thank you for sending!
from Mohsen:
The poem has the imagination of a child (sword and ghoul) and the warmth of a caring mother for her daughter. The language is simple and beautiful. Whoever has suffered from asthma or coronavirus can immediately identify with this masterpiece.
from Lillian Boraks Nemetz:
Dear Majid
So apropos.
We always wondered what’s behind
The mask. Now we know: feeling of security, but as usual this feeling has its fake side.
Stay well and safe
Lillian
from Naomi Shihab Nye:

from Shayda:
What a powerful poem, Majid jan, merci.
You are right, my mom would give me a sword, or better yet, slay the beast herself if she could. She is a fierce, mama wolf......."
from Moin:
