Brilliant! I can't wait to share this with my seven year old niece, she will absolutely adore it. She is forever my little princess and every year for Halloween she is anyone of the given story book princesses. God bless!

Wonderful poem! This photograph is just to good to be true.. it almost looks as if the are posing, but children don't usually pose so well, do they? This is just adorable!

This poem needs to be made into a huge billboard that runs across the universe, so ALL women can read it! I wrote another poem once (that I am going to dig up now) with the same exact message but not nearly as eloquent. Words truly can not express how much your poem resonated with my own personal philosophy. Right on, Brooke. Love it! Such a darling pic too. Enjoy. :)

This is a great and your elevation of women is supreme in the lines below I especially like:
"for men must all feel useful
though we, the women, know,
our power is within us -
the rescue's just for show."
Power to thee. Well done, Brooke.

The picture says it all, Brooke! Well, maybe not ALL, but that Sawyer is so darn cute!

Yours is a sweet and, once again, thoughtful write. It flows beautifully. Your rhyming is perfect. I love "duke it out." I especially like this telling stanza:

"for men must all feel useful
though we, the women, know,
our power is within us -
the rescue's just for show."

Well done, my friend! Alana

The picture is simply astonishing with the expressions of innocents & youth as the poem is a youthful one of vim & valor that all little girls crave & all little boys wish to fulfill on that little-grand stage.

Six light hearted stanzas of ending couplet rhymes.

Nice gentle romantic voice throughout. Charming little couple, and cute costumes. The flow of the story in this poem is interesting--holds you to the last word. Good rhyming and lovely photo:) Also confident voice of the narrator.

Such great wit in this and so true as it applies to human nature. All men are firefighters at heart, climbing ladders of hair. And the fire within her knows she doesn't need saving.
