This is a nice acrostic about "My Family."
In the poem you told how some people are not so lucky as others, due to circumstances beyond their control and you said it in a few words.
Good luck with your poem in the contest.

Comment from Dawn Munro
Wow, Brooke, this is so touching - it's true, too - love isn't something anyone should have to ask for, and there are many who don't have it. Is there any greater tragedy? With enough of it, there wouldn't be many other troubles in the world...
Exceptional, my friend, and of course, I have no sixes.

Beautiful message inside a sweet rhymed poem, coupled with a picture showing a happy family. Lucky that they are yours!
I agree, all children deserve to be part of a wonderful loving family.
Excellent.

Skye, every day I feel blessed that I have such a wonderful family. Thank you so much :-) Every time I talk to Miranda I tell her that she is the best mom I've ever known. Brooke

I love the fact that my daughters and sons are such good parents. It makes me happy, too. I am so glad she is loving her life and has such a great mom to support her!
Comment from OLA THOMAS
What a wonderfully rendered philosophical poem! I love this work so much as it expressed the rights of every man to have and enjoy 'family peace and love'. Unfortunately, today this is very elusive to many. The rhyming is very sound.

Comment from Giddy Nielsen-Sweep
A perfect example of the acrostic form, Brooke, and a pleasure to read. I agree with you in your author notes, how sad for the children who do not know the love of family. Giddy

Comment from rod007
A poem that stands in sharp contrast to the happy parents of merry Sawyer. Yet as you say for some 'love is out of reach.' I'm happy that my kids know each parent's overwhelming love. This is what makes the planet of life spin gloriously.

Comment from Carole Rosa
Brooke, I have to agree with your author notes. I have two daughters. My six grandchildren and two great grandchildren are not blessed with two parents and certainly not blessed with a happy home life.
Your poem is lovely and your family is beautiful. This picture should be on the cover of your poetry book for Sawyer. Just lovely. Carole

Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
I love your poem. It has a super message. I can clearly see how the prompt fits into the overall rendering of the poem. I see nothing to suggest changing. I, too, wish all children had to love that your poem and excellent picture portray. I love everything about your poem. Good job and good luck with the contest.
