The news was packed with
reporting that
Anna Nicole Smith
died a few days ago
Poor Dannielynn,
she must never stop crying
There was a bond between them
And, in Dannielynn's little brain,
she knows that whoever's trying to help
isn't the one that started it all.
Even though she's just a little baby,
and she can't communicate yet,
she knows that something's wrong when
there's the changed carry.
That's always zipped
from returning to mother again.
As tiny as she is,
being picked up not by her own mamma is
number one on her mind which'll soon fade.
It's not knowing where Anna went
that would be terrifying to the child.
Anna's real middle name...
It's joined into her daughter's first name
for memories
However, the trauma she must be having
for wanting limbs of arms from her mommy
and not just pretending dancing with each other.
39 years old,
the age of my mother --
Anna means ring,
and the circle of her life broke.
Although, there is hope that
it can be welded back on.
It makes me scared for my own mamma's sake
So many things represent Smith
but, I'm waiting for the time when it doesn't
have to be in a sad way.

Intelligent and Insightful
What an intelligent piece and layered as well. This much forethought coming from one so young is impressive. I also like the emphasis being placed on the view point of the baby. Creative! If I had enough points to give 5 stars I certainly would. Kisses Sweetie!

hi

Each of your sentences was as good as a whole paragraph
I give you a bulge of thank you's for your observant comment! I was sweetened to hear that you usually don't gag when children come into your contest, but can say that they are "impressive!" All the compliments that you gave, and especially telling me why this is unique are very much appreciated.
Oh, and also thanks for the thirty points, you jumped me into the 400's, I'm now at 402!
Hoping to accomplish more things,
