Debra,
This abcb quatrain defines selfishness well in poetic form. I like the artwork that shows the fault as a superhero which the one who is selfish most probably feels him/hereselt to be.
Keep writing and stay healthy

This short rhymed poem delivers a short sharp message. The artwork accompanying the piece mirrors the tone and theme very effectively. Thanks for sharing.

I really like the artwork. In this case the capital S doesn't stand for Superman, it stands for Selfish.

This is a fun peppy verse that says all that needs to be said.

Excellent contribution to your NaPo project. :)

He looks loveable and squeezable...but I have met him many times and he is ugly in his self-involvement. Very cute and clever, if we give him a wide berth. I like this very much!

This poem, Selfishness, identifies the egocentric person as one who was born under the sign --One Way. All take and no give makes the subject of this poem selfish.

You nailed selfishness--witty bit of snark--great expression--hadn't heard it, got it from context, thought perhaps you'd coined it. Reference appreciated!

Ah, that's something that everyone can do well from birth. It's the learning about how to consider others that's the real skill to master. Thanks for the fun little ditty - a great one for your pre-schoolers to learn!
