' A Smokers Pledge' Poem by Linda Winchell

God job... you nailed them!

you wouldnt smoke until you had a last puff...lol...i loved it! Nia

Fantastic it was so sincere then gave me a chuckle as you needed that last smoke before you signed, it was just so cute. thank you. I gave it an 8 and I will rarely give a 10. @}; -

Hope you made it! I used an old psychology trick, I told everyone I had ALREADY given up and no longer smoked. After a short while of telling everyone I didn't smoke, lo and behold, I didn't! That was Jan1st 1989. Still nicotine free.

Hello Maama.. These Lines are meant for me.. but unkept promises is always the plight of any man who cant fight seduction. These lines are salient..cheers Maama. The Sage Anthony Edmond John +2348020984990

I'd sooner die than give up smoking, I pledge to smoke until my ciggies bring me to my coffin.

want to be healthy one day not be out of breath while walking up a flight of stairs. And not always hear you complain to me but I know it's because you really care....................ya strong resolve and true love can achieve impossible and this is pledge one must wait to see it realize...lovely piece....10 read mine /survival//at bay...fine without u

Hello Linda... I'm confused about your 'Smokers Pledge'... in your biography you say you do not smoke... is this poem speaking of someone else? In January of 2010 I will have been a non-smoker for 11 years... unfortunately I quit after the damage was done [I suffer COPD], but fortunately before it killed me. LOL My thoughts and prayers go out to all the smokers still smokin' away... that's a demon that doesn't want to let go easily and make no mistake about it... it is a killer, and if it doesn't kill you it will put a catch in your get-along!

Haha! very clever piece! may you find the strength to honor your pledge so that you can remain with us to write more wonderful poems!

great piece Linda...and words at such an ease! i liked the sarcastic humour and truth inside this enjoyable write...thanks...10
