Comment from Patricia L. Settoon

Excellent

Excellent. Humorous while having the reader feel the customs taught to each of us in our own backgrounds ingrained as children. Though nothing wrong with this, others feel the need to make some feel less than. Once that happens, then no one is comfortable expressing their own uniqueness. You have shown how ridiculous this is. We are a country of people who come from every corner of the world. We should embrace this and celebrate everyone as you have done in a wonderful way! Go Girl Go!

I just came across this one - I imagine you must have gotten a ton of great reviews and "amens" for this one (is it politically correct to say "amen"?). I wish I had a six to give it. I thought the U.S. was the only country that had such nonsense. Sign me up for your club.

Very well done, I know you don't want to offend anyone
but I hope all those politically correct advocates are
offended and angry as hell.
Very well written, the flow was great and I could hardly wait for the next line. If it were allowed, I would give you all of my six stars
. Great job

A "right-on" poem of common sense. Thank you for writing and I hope you win the poem of the month contest. It's about time we drop all this nonsense and value each other without squelching our heritage, speech, holidays, etc. Marilyn/BeasPeas

Thank you Marilyn for reading my poem and agreeing with its content. This Political Correctness is getting out of hand and treats us like idiots. So this is my reflection on the whole scene. Thanks you for your good wishes and I am just stoked to have had this even selected for this contest I was very surprised when I was notified of my selection. So once again I appreciate your lovely comments Cheers Christine

Hi Christine. It got my vote. Good job and good luck in the contest. Marilyn/BeasPeas

Comment from Treischel

Excellent

Very cleverly posed political and societal viewpoint that this sensitivity movement is getting out of hand. The problem is that you can't please everybody or things become absurd. I agree with your sentiment put together in aabb rhymed quatrains in a variable meter.

Thank you Treischel for reading and giving this poem your review. Yes it is getting quite silly at times but I think as long as we remain aware of the absurd we can make our own choices. Just a bit of fun with this one too. with appreciation of your time Cjeers Christine😃

Comment from Cindy Warren

Excellent

I agree. I live in Canada, and most of what you've said could apply here too. What if I'm offended by the nonsense? There are people who want to change the name of the Edmonton Eakimos! Seems they're harassing some other teams too. And Bugs Bunny carries a warning that some material may offend. Ridiculous! If someone doesn't like us the way we are, they're free to leave.

Wonderful! I think there is an honesty - and political incorrectness here - that is refreshing. Love the way you wrote this. Love the honesty. Just terrific.
