this poem reaches out to people on a personal level. It says its for kids, but i asure you it reaches out to many more people. I feel the structure of this poem in a way is somehow based on personal experience, i'de be curious to find out, but i know when i write i write from personal experiences too. Over all a great poem, and an outstanding author.

hey at least not every christmas is the same. your poem really touched me my dad used to hit like that except he left which made it worse than being taken away i suppose. in other words i understand where the poem is coming from good work! hope they keep coming
Ronny
I read your poem and I nearly dies because it was so sad and I was sad when I read it and then I read it and I got sadder because it was such a sad poem with a sad title and a message about a father and he hit his son and that made me all crying and stuff and my dad doesn't hit me but if the did it would be sad because that's not what people should do especially around christmas oh my god it's just so heartbreaking

Enjoyed Steve's poem. I just wonder if he is drawing on personal experiences or if it is pure imagination. I am sure it goes on. Well done.
