Child's E-Mail To God.

Rating: 5.0


Dear God I am riting this to let you no
My Mom's coff got worse and she's just ad to go.
I dont no your E-mail but your everywhere
So sum angel will give it you God, cos you care.

Mom's gone to an ospital they called a Respite
I think that's the name - an I hope it's spelled rite.
They won't let me go cos it's too far away.
But they dont no she hates eggs, an she wont like to say.

Her coff isn't bad when she first gets in bed
But she likes extra pillas God, under er head.
My Mom's got red air, tho she's not got much now
But she likes it combed gently, or else there's a row.

She's got such good teeth God, an beootiful smile
Her nightys are pretty too, she likes keepin in style.
I hope someone reads to her every night - - -
Then says God bless ya and ope bed bugs dont bite.

I thought I would tell you sum things they won't no
And God, cos your busy, I'll sign this off now.
But I wanted to say God before I press send,
She's got nobody there, so please God, be her frend.

I so agree with Juneil. this is definitely a must read. I love the fact that you deliberately misspelled the words. It does give the poem a realness that would not exist in the absence. You're great

This is a letter to God full of emotion and praise to God. A letter that brings tear in eyes and gives feeling to feel a child's mind and her affection towards mother. God will definitely be friend of her and her mother. A heart touching mail sent to God is beautifully penned. This is an outstanding poem and readers will love to read this poem again and again.

A small gem of its kind. Ten seems inadequate here. Thank you for all the lovely comments on my work. Each one is treasured. Wishing you and your gifted pen only the best. Love, Sandra

That's sweet, I feel sorry for the poor mite. It's full of innocent childish feeling, and it is a childish style of writing - the language and spelling errors for one thing! Thanks, we can learn a lot from this

This is unquestionably a poem by a masterful poet, Fay, written just as a child would write it-a difficult task for those so fluent in the language. It is simple yet profound and deeply touching to all who read this beautiful poem. It was so realistically expressed and modern as well. Once again, your talent shines in this brilliant poem. Carl.
