You have painted a loving picture of your dad in only six words. Quite a challenge.

Short, sweet, loving and upbeat!

If you have brothers and/or sisters, being an umpire would be an intregal part of his life. A great addition to your book and a wonderful contest entry. Good luck, joan marie

Ah, us girls love our daddies. You portray him well in your little picture frame format. Many years are conveyed in those six words. Good luck in the contest!

It's amazing how much you have told us about your dad in just six words, and it spans fifty years. You placed your poem in a little frame like a miniature portrait. Well done.

Another good contest entry. I just don't know if WWII would be considered an actual word. Nonetheless, a strong sentiment and should fare well in any contest.

What a great tribute to your dad. Although it is short it says so much about him in those few short words. It's a nice little poem. Well done.

Nice choice of words to paint a picture of your Dad.
The format is perfect... strong lines that show who he was and who he became.
Very well done.

Wow! I loved this short poem. It had a moving feeling. Like you love your dad just as much, and proud. the light blue does wonders too.
