What would the world do without little boys and their imaginations? When I was young, I had a swamp monster friend. Love your poem.

You have the best imagination ever. I am in awe. The creature you described was both realistic and off the charts. I liked the rhythm to this and the tiny bit of dialogue turned it into a story. Nice job as always.

Very cute, Brooke, a dragon(?) frightening himself
with his own bubble. Kids will eat that up.
And as always, an important lesson embedded within your
poem. I can see why you have to write a poem
to explain that delightful expression.
Peace, Lee

Thank you, Lee :-) Yes, it sounds dragon-like. I didn't actually think "dragon." I just started adding features to it. LOL I appreciate the sixth star, my friend. :-) Brooke

Comment from Enrique28
A creature with scales of green, the nature of which is left to the imagination, but I like the way it turns out not to be as ferocious as initially thought. I love your clever use of chewing gum to make it appear harmless. Very well rhymed and poetically sounding. Great job. Oh, and excellent presentation! Enrique

Comment from emjaihammond
How sweet this little poem about a great green guy that little ones may fear until they get to know him better. A bit of a lesson on not "Judging a book by it's cover" I know it's a clich©, but a good one. Your poem is very entertaining and a joy to read as it always is. Great fun.

Dear Brooke,
You could be writing this about me:) My saxophone breath-control lets me blow ginormous bublles, not green and purple, but the rest is pretty spot on:) Great job--Ted

Ted, it never occurred to me that horn blowers would be good bubble blowers, but it makes perfect sense. You must be loads of fun at parties ;-) Thank you, my friend. Brooke

OH MY! What a darling little guy! You must have the most entertaining photo albums anyone has ever seen. The poem suits the picture quite well, and tells a cute story in perfectly rhymed quatrains. I can never find anything to change or suggest for your poems, which seems to indicate a very careful or perhaps very seasoned and skillful writer. This was so fun to read, and the scene so easy so visualize. Well done, and a true pleasure to read this night.
