Hello, Kahpot,

Beautiful entry for the Four Line Poem contest. I will be looking for it in the voting booth. It flows very well. Children know the truth about races...we are all the same, as long as they are not trained to hate. The presentation is lovely. Well done my friend.

This is only 3 lines, so this can not win a 4 line poetry contest. I do like the words, but you need a 4th line. I would change my rating if it were fixed to fit the prompt.

This rating does not count towards story rating or author rank.
The highest and the lowest rating are not included in calculations.

-Very nice image and
presentation, kahpot.
-Your notes are appreciated, too.
-The syllable count is good,
along with the topic, and
effective use of one
continuous thought.
-I like the contrast of dark
and light, and how you use
it to show there is hope in the world.
-Good luck in the contest.

An inspiring story you wrote about in your verse and author's notes.

Underlying the (racist) problem with skin color or religion, under all of this we share the same beating hearts and red blood. In a war zone, no one would question the source of the possible life-saving blood donation during an operation.

Really inspirational! Children are burn without any iota of sense of discrimination. It is usually the society and family that educate the children to learn otherwise.

You have made excellent use of the syllables allowed to convey a delightful, uplifting message about the type of person that plays the role of the candle in a dark setting.

This is a wonderful poem and illustration, which provides hope that all our problems will soon dissipate. I just hope that all that mad hugging didn't come too early.

Loved your poem and the picture to illustrate it! The world seems like such a dark place. But if we can see a "ray of light" in the open, non-judgmental love of kids, there is hope.
