A cute, easy read. Well done. I think eliminating contractions within the poem would help with the overall flow. In some cases, the contractions distracted from the overall "melody." Otherwise, a great piece.

    Glad you enjoyed. I'll take another look at the contractions. Thanks for the great review.

I love this. I especially like that although it is rhyming verse, there is a wonderful story to boot! The humor is evident and strong, and the meter is spot on. Very nice job!

Cute story in verse. i loved the story line and the moral at the end. Your poem had a marvelous rhythm and each line was graced with a well placed rhyme.

Wow! You're good!

Excellent job. I don't know what you could change that would make this piece any better. Reading it put a smile on my face. It almost inspires me to drop everything and try to write something new myself.

This is only the second six star rating I have given out, and I think if there was a seven star rating you would have deserved that instead.

This is a work of fantasy, I see. I kind of like poems with meter, so sometimes, don't know how to rate one like this. It's very well done for a story poem and I like it. If we were all alike it would be a dull world. Miss Sally

    You are welcome. I wrote a story poem. It was "The Lost Nickel." I truly enjoyed it. It is a challenge.

Cindy, This little ditty is giddy. I smiled as I read it until I reached the last paragraph, when I actually laughed out loud. Isn't it funny what makes each of us laugh! Very Cute. Carole
