You say this is not biographical and I think it is about the lead subject ~ Think of six life-changing words - write! Very true and I agree when the teachings of religion is ignored moral values and behavior from every source went also. But that is not the only factor to blame; parental guidance and moral standards followed by parents in their own lives has a a great impact as well. Media too has been quite a culprit. We allow our children to watch TV and have free access to the internet. Good luck with your book and the contest.

Thanks for the insightful comments and kind review. I agree.
Comment from H. Rebecca
It is a good entry but, if it's not biographical, it doesn't follow the rules of the contest as far as I know. For that reason I'm giving for stars.

All writing is biographical.... we write about what we know. love, have experienced, etc. .... this is a 6 word STORY... as in the title of the contest. Thanks for stopping by and commenting. I appreciate your time.
Comment from Jonez08
Hi skye, wonderful entry for the contest. So much has changed since God was expelled from school. Moral values are often compromised and I feel things has definitely turned for the worse. On the other hand, my teenage daughter had a child while in high school and I don't think God not being in school had anything to do with. We need him to guide us at all times. But I understand your point fully. Good luck in the contest.

Comment from chesli
Amen! I can't agree more. I don't think any one particular religion should be taught in school, but we are all praying to the same God... how can that possibly be wrong? Great job!

This was a very good poem. It rings very true about our schools today and how we need to be there and be more involved with our kids. Excellent work!

There is an irony here, for
isn't the beautiful grandchild a gift
from God? Therefore, I don't think
He was actually expelled.
Nice entry. Good luck! Carolyn

Thank you for this kind review. I appreciate you very much. God was expelled from the school, the baby is always meant to be a blessing.

wow...Powerful words. God expelled...wow. How I never put it into that perspective before, but what an image I could see with this.

I love it when I read poems about babies. I miss my daycare job. I've been away from there almost a week and I miss the kids the most

Your poem is a very good entry for the contest. At first I thought you were trying to say "got expelled," I was so confused. After I re read it, I saw the power in your words. Good luck in the contest! Judy
