Nice work. Cohesive storytelling. The rhyming scheme was fine. One line needs an additional count:

But her new dad was (a) drunk

Well done. Good luck in your writing.

This story poem about Thursday's Child is well written and flawlessly rhymed. It reminds me of how challenging life can be for a child placed in situations over which they have no control. Great job.

I wonder who first came up with this listing on children and the days and a take on their meanings. This was a well written poem with good flowing thoughts. I enjoyed reading and writing this response for it... John

Thanks John for your encouraging review.
The poem "Monday's Child" first appeared in 1838 in a book about the Traditions of Devonshire. The author is unknown. It assigned characteristics to people born on those days. Since my character was born on a Thursday, I titled my poem Thursday's Child.

This is very well written and flows very nicely. SO many things in live offers us a chance to learn. You should grab those and keep them close to your heart.
