Found this thought provoking! I ended up reading it twice. To me, it sounds almost like a horror story in a poem, not sure if that's what was intended, but I enjoy that interpretation of it! Interesting how many ways I think this poem could be received!

Lol! Well you got me worried about a frightening tale in this fun verse. Oh, yes, I know how exhausting it is when the grandchildren visit. It's nonstop activity and despite all we planned, we have to be flexible for new extemporaneous activities!

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
Hi Linda, it is sooooo lovely to see you writing again, and still with your lovely sense of fun. 1000 words is a lot for a poem, I don't know if I could write one that long, I'm going to count my Christmas poem, that was long.
I enjoyed your poem and had to laugh when it turned out to be the grandchildren she wanted to lock out. LOL, I think that as well at times. Your rhyme was so smooth, and the rhythm superb, and I don't have a 6 to give you. You made a great poem out of the 'She didn't lock the door' it was brilliant my friend.
Big hugs to you and your mum and all your family, love you millions! :)) Sandra.xxxx

I had gone to my daughters for a few days...and my brother needed me to help with my mom...and then my daughter called to say my granddaughter was in the hospital...so back across the state to my daughters...they found my 11 year old granddaughter has stage 1 diabetes...so they are trying to get all they need to get her settled...it's a nightmare...but she seems to be doing better...so I'll stay here and help my daughter...she takes everything to heart...they say God doesn't give us more than we can take...sometimes I have to scratch my head...thank you sweet angel...love you so many lots...xxoo
Comment from doggymad
This was a great poem which would have been perfect for the contest. I think the prompt usually calls for prose or short story. But 1000 words is too many.
You did sterling work with this which incorporated flash fiction to perfection
hugs

Comment from Carolyn Shelton
Haha about how this poem got created! I love it!
I wasn't sure whether to expect something scary or not from how the poem began, but it turned out making me smile.
Locking the door to keep the grandchildren out for poor Grandma was tired! LOL!
Great idea and good luck to you for the next contest you enter. :)

Comment from royowen
Very funny author notes Linda, (perhaps they won't notice it's 915 words short) I was about to give a talk on children's safety, but had to reign in those thoughts quickly. A nice little package dear Linda, I loved your sense of rhyme and rhythmically applied lighthearted anecdote, and thought it lovely, well done dear friend, blessings, Roy
Typo : she (coved) up hear head. Covered?

Comment from Sharon Haiste
I think this would have been a good entry for the 'She Didn't Lock the Door' writing prompt, even if it was 915 words short.
Well written, good and clear story.
Well done.
