Well composed. The poet has chosen an effective rhyme in verse, presenting an apt response to the prompt. The message to this reader is so vividly conveyed, that we can all keep faith in ourselves, and keep going.

Rick,

This is a wonderful story, if not sad. It told a story all the way to completion. It has a good rhyme scheme working as well.

Well done my friend and good luck in the contest.

Cecilia

There are so many sad stories my friend, this is lost in a malaise of broken themes, it seems to match that stream of consciousness that mixes with a very sad world, lost in a stormy sea with only a small raft to hold to, beautifully written, blessings Roy

I have never understood racial issues, we are all the same in God's eyes. Those that are prejudice are insulting God which is a very stupid thing to do. Then those that are prejudice are ignorant.

Yes, getting attacked for any reason is never an easy thing to handle. In the end the reasons of the attackers don't matter much, the harm done is all the same. Good end rhymes.
