I love the picture. I love the poem. Now that is warning a young boy will take. Even a very young boy would not want to hurt that part,Some people need a good reason to take the warning seriously.Great work.

What a laugh! I think there's not a hitch one in this perfectly crafted verse, or story. Just an incredible and intertaining story from start to finish. The message is clear: "By God take care of Willy." Kenny

Comment from Matthew M.
I was really enjoying this and then I read about Aunt Sue's mustache and that was the clincher for the six stars. The ending was hilarious. I will definitely walk when carrying scissors.
One small edit:
oftentimes needs a space between the two words.

Thnaks for the great review and the six stars.
Nope 'oftentimes' as an alternative to 'often' is a word in its own right...

I am sorry. You are correct. Oftentimes is a word. I just learned something new. Can I give you seven stars? :)
Comment from warbler
I loved your poem/story. It certainly has a good moral.
It was very humorous. My favorite was that he even kissed his Auntie Sue! The ending was quite tragic.

Comment from Craigitar
This is funny--a cautionary tale that should be ignored by none. This was the same sage advise I received when a lad but I always imagined loosing an eye or two. Well written and engaging. Good job and luck with the contest.

It took some thought to come up with the humorous lines in this poem--like: '(Despite the thick moustache she grew.)' and the last line is priceless. Got a kick out of this line, 'Oh, what a rumpus! What a ruction!'
