What a great story, and with a moral thrown in that children can relate to easily. Your rhyming scheme was awesome throughout. Great presentation. Nicely presented.Truly a joy to read.

You did a good job with your contest entry, Mystery Writer. I saw no evidence of racism, hate, or anything that you mentioned in notes. Your poem reads well with good rhymes, good flow, good action, and a great message. I believe young kids will enjoy it. It does depict how individuals in the same house sometimes react to what they believe is wrong when in actuality it is just a 'normal' thing. Best wishes.
Respectfully, Jan

    Thanks, Jan. I appreciate your comments. I was kind of pulling the leg of anyone who might think I was prejudiced against witches.

The kid that still resides within, was hanging on every word. As a grandmother of sisters one 7 and the other 8 years old. I can't wait to have our meditation time and read this. They are as different as ones duality and this had something contained in the words that each will relate to. Love your writings!!

    Jennifer, that is the greatest compliment you could possibly give me!!
    Thank you so much! A kid still resides in me, too, as you could probably tell. I hope they like it, but if they don't, or if they think it needs something else that would make it better, please let me
    know, and I'll see what I can do. And also, many thanks for the 6!!

This is a great poem for children. The rhymes are clear and varied, the pace is good as is the story -scary (kids love that) along with total resolution (a required element so's kids don't stay scared). Especially, the 6 star is merited as you have brought home clearly the power and love of the mother. Outstanding!

    goodness, Katherine - that is the loveliest critique I have gotten from anyone on FS, and it means a lot to me. Many thanks!
    By the way, we share the same first name, though mine is with an "a."
    Oh! And the 6 is a delightful bonus. thank you!

I think kids and parents will always argue though the love will always remain, this story has a wonderful message and I think quite educational for children, very well written and best wishes for your contest****kahpot

"She kissed them tenderly and said,
"I love you both, now stay in bed!"
"We love you, Mom. Don't close the door."
Mom smiled and answered, "Love you more!"" Well everything is well when ends well. Thank you for sharing and good luck with your writings.
