What a scary and highly frightful nightmare!. It is a such a 'mare that makes one sweating on his bed. I love the way you woven your words together in this work (as usual though). Great artwork of a charging tiger.

I love this poem! It is so good that I am totally jealous. I am literally turning green with envy. I keep asking myself, why I can't write like that? The simple answer is talent. While I believe that I have some I know without doubt that you have more, much more. Anyway, this is a marvelous effort. Congratulations.

Comment from Joan E.
He may be just a carousel tiger, but he is certainly fierce--yes, "homocidal" is an apt description. I enjoyed your rhymed quatrains, conversational tone and fanciful tale. Cheers- Joan

I liked this so much because of your clever rhyming words, Brooke. Flawless rhythm of course and I think children would love it, (if it didn't scare them.) I enjoyed it anyway, very much. Giddy

Giddy, thank you so much :-) I think the kids have to be slightly older for this one, not two or three or four... Brooke
Comment from Jacqueline M Franklin
Hi Brooke,
Grrrrrr, that tiger is one feeeeerocious critter! As I was reading this, I pictured Sawyer and my twin grandsons with those glowing swords from Star Wars running around the yard sleighing the tiger!! LOL...
Lots of fun, this one!
Cheers * Blessings

Comment from royowen
It sounds like a kiddie's poem, but I'm sure Brooke, but it's your usual great composition, it seems like this is easy, but being original without being repetitive with previous works is not easy! But God has unlimited creative ability and those He so gifts are the same! Well done again, good abcb rhyming, nice even meter, blessings, Roy.

I loved the horror in this writing. This is a remarkable style and you did a great job. I like tigers but not the ones that eat people although they all do that unless they have fresh non-human meat. Well done, Brooke.

Brooke: Joyful, joyful! This was so much fun to read. I knew from the beginning no one was going to die a horrific death so it was all fun. Great rhythm and rhyme and vivid imagination. Linda

Terrific! Fun while at the same time a show of naturally talented discipline. Highly selective, I have thoroughly enjoyed this!

Comment from Adri7enne
That is one mean looking beast. Enough to give a kid nightmares! Loved that first stanza the best. I enjoyed the 'homicidal' 'survival' rhyme. You have such an imagination, my friend. Lovely, Brooke!
