!!!!! Not only is it a "best ever" expression ---it's flat out adorable!
And the poem is also a delight. It has a flow and beat that captivates
the reader - not to mention a really cute story! I can just picture Sawyer
being charmed by this big green ogre, frightened by bubblegum popping
and shouting "Don't be afraid"...."Come on...let's have some fun." Feeling
all grown up with superior bravery glowing :-)
Very nice!

I found this poem to be super cute. Can you believe a great big monster being afraid of a bubble blown from his own gum? That's funny. A totally enjoyable poem.

Sawyer never fails to inspire you. This reminded me of when my own son was young and was scared of characters. Thanks for sharing. T2

What a cute and well written poem, but I am sure to say. The expression on the cute little guy's face out does your poem :). Thanks for sharing.

This is a truly delightful poem to read and to enjoy. It reads at a jaunty pace and the rhymes are simply perfect. It could be a children's story.

I like your lovely poem. As a teacher o f young kids I know that this would be a hit. The regular rhyme and imaginative theme make it an attractive package.

Another great piece and it was funny yet light hearted. I wanted this line to be:
but just as things were looking glum,
I saw the creature chewing gum!
- what if it read: chewing bubble Gum
What you have is excellent either way.

Wow! This is absolutely adorable! I love friendly little monsters (or not so little)! Brilliant portrayal of the green monster and I love the use of the chewing gum to add a little friendliness to this lovable monster! Brilliant work!
