Comment from RJ Heritage

Exceptional

This is very somber poem, that was well written and illustrated. Too often, I have seen the least favored child be the one that really shows the parent love, while the favorite is selfish and self centered.
I have Irish relatives, and can relate to the anthem and its meaning.
The color green was a nice and complimentary effect that captures the Irish imagery. I also appreciate the rhyme and flow of your words.
Well done
RJ

If any group can celebrate death, I know of none more involved than the soul of am Irishmon. Losses are only temporary absences of eternal friends....

A good entry for the Sad Poems contest. It is sad but has a little bit of uplifting as well. Like the image and the rhyming is very good. Thanks for sharing and best of luck in the competition.
Take care and have a wonderful day.
