Your poem was sweet. And this is so exciting! My grandmother actually lived to meet her great-great-grandchild. Thank you for sharing! Best wishes to you.

Linda,
These six words tell us of the strong emotions you have for your coming great grandson. The artwork is so cute with the toys seeming to watch over the baby.
Congrats.
Good luck in the contest.
Keep writing and stay healthy

Clever to hyphenate great grandson so that it becomes one word - a lovely poem for the contest. I hope it does well, and that you enjoy having a new baby in the family.

I enjoyed this work. I like simple, easy to understand, non-rhyming poetry. That's how I try to write. Your work is good. I also enjoyed reading your biography. I am 73, on the coast of Louisiana, and my path to writing is basically the same as yours. I've always loved words and books. I was a high school English teacher for many years--the perfect job for me. Thanks for sharing your writing and a bit about yourself.

Hi Linda, your six-word poem is so sweet and tender. I can feel the anticipation of the new baby. Of special note:
great-grandson's
first
cry
(A cry of joy, followed by tears of joy--how wonderful.)
Excellent photo choice. As this is a contest entry, I wish you good luck.
