This work has reached the exceptional level

This is a really great poem, especially in 15 words or less...The lines and rythmeing scheme works well...It definitely deserves a six star rating.

This is reallly pretty. Its true that children can be and are considered gifts from gods, angels, or both. I think you also used a great photo, too.

    Sorry if I touched up on some bad memories. No offense intended. Though I think the poem and the picyure go very well together. ^-^

    I was hoping you would see my beautiful boy...His smile still helps me make it through some difficult days. I have that picture by my computer. Thank you very much for the most kind words. You will make me blush all the way across that ocean. Thank you! You are my most favorite gentleman on this site...You have a heart of gold and you aren't afraid to show it. Smiles and hugs, CArol

    lots of kisses for you Carol xxx

    Carol, do not blush, just bathe in the warmth that
    radiates from one heart to another.
    Your delightful lttle boy walks beside you and
    you are only separated by a thin veil that will
    on day disappear to bring you both into each
    others arms once more. Waters can separate
    bodies, but souls will forever blend together
    and find love, peace and happiness. xxx phil

Hi Carol, Thank you for sharing Michael with us. He was a gorgeous little boy, and his beautiful innocent soul shines all over his sweet face. Your poem is a lovely tribute to your love for each other. I know that Michael is always with you! I'm so sorry that he had to leave so soon, but his love will live on forever. - Karen
