Oh, this was very good! Sharp and to the point. This should be a response to anyone smoking. Alas, I know people that had been smoking for over 50 years, and they are not going to quit (lol).

Great imagery, visuals and presentation. Good luck in the contest.

You've entered a really good rhyming poem in the contest. In just a few words, you've delivered an important health and safety message. Great job. Best wishes in the contest.

That's how we feel sometimes. When life gets you down, do you inhale the smoky ashes or take a sniff from the butt you were trying to put out? Cancer could be waiting on the doorstep if you would take another puff.

There is a really strong message in this short poetic work. You could not have picked a more controversial subject. Very well done my friend. A good write.

Quit cold turkey that's the way to do it. Just make up your mind no more. Not only do smokers pollute themselves the pollute the air we breathe so they are killing those they love. Powerful poem.

I think this bad habit is quite frowned upon these days. I have a family who live close to me and they smoke in their backyard and the smoke drifts up into the bedrooms of my house and I can never have my windows open, I find it so annoying! A fine 1-6-1 for the contest, love Dolly x

This entry for the 1-6-1 Contest writing prompt obeys the contest requirement with a full set of line-end rhymes. These are unforced and have good connectivity, so flow is ensured.

Love your poem! You did a great job with the prompt. I have been begging my husband to quit for years. I will share your poem with him. Hopefully your words will I inspire.

In my opinion, the advice is above reproach and clearly and simply rendered in its starkly dramatic presentation - in perfect compliance with the prompt. Best wishes in the contest with this sage entry...
