Comment from RGstar

Excellent

I had to come to comment on this one. Powerful and to the point. Nicely worded for a1-6-1 and with so few words to contend, you found the perfect collection.
A very well done.
This should be in some kind of campaign. Hard hitting.
Best wishes, and good luck with it.
Have a good Sunday.

Thanks, RG. I figured, with so few words, the image would have to do the heavy lifting.

This is clear, concise, and right to the point. Spit you've had enough of it quit says it all in the least amount of words possible. I love the picture of the butt squashed down with a little hand holding a cigarette within the butt.
Thank you for bringing up an important issue such as this one. My younger sister still smokes and amongst the four of us, she will probably be the first to die because of it.
I quit many years ago and it was the hardest but most warranted thing I could do for myself. I can breathe and enjoy life now!

You met the restrictive rules of this rhyming 1-6-1 poem very well. Furthermore, the message to urge to stop smoking for health sounds good. Best wishes in the contest!

Wow, now this is quite the coincidence... Or is it? I just decided to try to quit smoking yet again, but then, your title is undoubtedly what drew me in... (*grin*) What a powerful little gem.
