A very well-written 1-6-1 poem. Sometimes a friend is easier to get along with than family because they are not always aware of secrets your family knows about you.

Nice 1-6-1 family poem. Nice style with well chosen words to relate your message to the reader. Was interesting and related how fortunate you are to have good friends.

This 1-6-1, I Want To Ask, seems to pit having friends against dealing with family members. Everyone know, of course, you get to pick your friends.

What a question, again one which most humans rather not ask or look upon. With one word you question the answer. I really like the way you think, fellow writer!

With respect, Ulla, I don't 'get' this one, and I refuse to check the other reviews to cheat and get tips. ;-)

Your 'description' mentions a contest, but I'm not sure what the rules are.

I've read this a dozen times now and I'm nowhere nearer finding a solution.

Maybe I'm being dim, so PLEASE give me some tips.

Cheers, Ray xx

Hi Ray, The contest is called 'A Family Matter' . Well to me it means anything to do with family, hence I have posed the question in my 1-6-1. Ray, out of curiosity, how did you know it was me who's written this? It's supposed to be blind! hehe. Thanks a lot for the stars. I hope the meaning of my entry is clearer now. All best. Ulla xx

Maybe add a reference to the contest and the rules in your notes. Oh, every now and again, I recall who has reviewed me lately, access their portfolio and review them back. Unlucky you on this occasion. LOL. Best wishes, Ray xx

Very good 1-6-1 Poem - A Family Matter entry. Enjoyed the short read very much. They are harder when the syllable count is so few to try to make sense out of them, but you did a great job. Good luck in the contest. God bless and hugs, Susanne
