Comment from Father Flaps
Hi Rod,
Nice entry for "The Past" writing prompt. Looks like the new girl met her first friend in a new town. Seems like it was luck all the way around. Pete caught it from his father, no doubt. But I don't think he'll regret his decision at all. "Hi, Noreen!"
When I was young, I was as shy
as I could be. Girls passed me by."
You told a nice story here, Rod. I especially like the artwork you went with, too. Nice painting that fits the poem perfectly!
Good Luck!
Cheers,
Kimbob

Comment from Janice Canerdy
I don't remember skipping when I was a kid, but during my long teaching career, I'd always get wind of "senior skip day"! (I taught seniors.) Your narrative poem is very well-written and descriptive of a day out of
school--when no misbehavior transpired but a friendship was born.

I, too, remember those senior cut days in late May when I was teaching. Many thanks for sharing my poem, Janice.
Comment from Carolyn Dooley
The picture is great. It goes with the poem. One of young crushes. Our minds only focus on the moment. We could get in much trouble. You never forget those first crushes. Thank you for posting.

What a sweet story! And well done with the rhyming quatrains. I am hoping it was how you met your wife if autobiographical and true! Hope you do well in the contest!
