Comment from dragonpoet
This is a book about fighting the times and becoming your best man despite what others say. It shows how good can be spread through generations. Learning is the key.
I like how the line breaks emphasize the meaning and emotion of the poem.
Keep writing

Hi ya,
this is a wonderful story/poem. What a great piece of writing, I so enjoyed reading this.
I wonder if it is a true story, it sounds like something passed down through time.
I loved it.

I wish it was true, it was inspired by the contest picture and it was so much fun to write. Thank you . I wrote it from the prompt where they send you a picture then judged it .

Thank you for sharing this interesting read.

A smile and a happy tear, best awards that you as a writer can claim you did, give your reader something to smile and relate to.
Beautiful story/free verse, creative and powerful. Unbelievably touching, I really did shed a tear at the end.
I first started reading it simply because my name is Jimmy. I was curious. I'm so glad I dropped in and was exposed to your little piece of genius.

Oh my!!
This one knocked the socks off me!
What a beautiful story, shedding prejudice and encouraging the innocence and openness of youth to the wonders of the written word. Stunning artistry compliments the piece.
I have thoroughly enjoyed reading this, good luck! : )

Comment from Gone but not forgotten
Okay. I got goose bumps! Perhaps because there was an "Old Jimmy" in my life when I was young. Not at the same level, but someone I admired and listened despite my family having little respect for this precious woman. She not only taught me her superstitions but also her deep ability to love. Thanks for bringing up a sweet memory for me!
