There's no place like home. The Brown And Ugly Tree is a well written children's poem. Perfect rhythm and reads smooth from beginning to end. Bravo!

This is a cute story about Mike the inchworm. Like many such worms, after Mike's trip is over, he concludes that home is where he'd rather be.
Cheers,

Comment from honeytree
Home is where our heart is especially
When one has lived in "an ugly brown tree home."
I guess the "ugly brown tree"
Was the best after traveling around.
Great poem and art work.

I must tell you that art work is mostly clip art that I put together. I'm sure your sweet six was for the story...
Comment from Jane Johnson
See the the hills (delete one "the" on two separate lines in this verse)
Otherwise, the words flowed quite well and it was a cute story. It would make a cute children's story. The artwork you chose complimented your verse. Cute idea! Thanks for sharing.

I don't know how it's possible to read this thing 200 times and still, I missed it.
Thanks much Jane

It happens. The line was repeated twice in the poem and they were both the same, so I hope you found them both.
Comment from poetic1988
this is a very cute poem, it feels like a children story though
i also like how towards the end your poem seems to ryhmes
mixing in different poetry types
Then Mike said,
"I saw the country,
I saw the the hills,
The rocks were by the sea.
I saw New York and Dallas
But forget about Tennessee.
There was no hope or promise
I saw only misery.
I was so alone,
I'm glad to be home,
In this brown and ugly tree."

This is a beautiful poem that should get the average kid's imagination humming in overdrive. The inch worm's Odyssey and the great rhyming make for an excellent read.

Comment from Zinnia48
A very imaginative, creative, and entertaining poem! I had a great time tagging along. The tiniest of suggestions is: As a Missourian I would like to personally invite Mike to my lovely state, and give him a grand tour. I'd like to think that if he had included Missouri in his adventure, he might have found a suitable tree here that could have been a home away from home. Great work! Caroline
