Yes, this is an important question--one I did not get to ask my father although he answered in many different ways. Your poem is well balanced and delivers a punch line. Thank you for sharing. I wish you success in the contest.

    Thanks so much, Andre. Like me, you seem to think of your Dad a lot. I never asked mine either, but I know he loved me.

Wow this was great. So simple and yet so honest. From the mouths of innocent babes. It makes one feel warm and loved. Great picture. Thanks for sharing.

    The picture is my little one again. It was taken in England a few years ago.

    I just found out that we enjoy someone else's writing- Anne - Mabaker- she suggested I check you out and I let her know that we already read each others work.

    She seems like a very nice lady. I have only read one of her pieces so far, but it was very good.

MJ,

This is a good poem for the contest. Your picture & words are a great pairing.

You are right. Young kids ask these questions & need reassurance a lot.

Good job & best wishes in the contest. Jan

    Thank you. Hated it growing up. Mainly because I was a skinny, ugly, awkward child and a boy's name made it much worse. I was made fun of constantly.

A well-written contest entry. these short syllable poems make the writer pick and choose their words carefully. I thin you completed the challenge of this contest very well.

    I'm going to do the shopping now, but I'll read it when I come back or early tomorrow (I work in the evening.)
    Thanks for reading.

I wonder why sometimes kids have to ask that question. *smile* I guess it's the same reason wives have to ask their husbands. For some reason, they're not feeling too confident in the answer, huh? Good entry for the contest!

This is a lovely 2-4-2 poem for the contest. the picture is so cute and the question to the Dad is just what a young child would say. I wish you luck in the contest. Mary
