What can I say? Another poem for the young at heart, all literate and metrical and rhyming. As soon as my review will save, I'll hush with excellent.

Comment from Dean Kuch
Yeah, you can count sheep to help you sleep, unless you suffer from omniphobia, the morbid fear of sheep. LOL...
A cute poem, Brooke, and maybe, just maybe, one of these days, we'll see something truly dark flow from your pen. I've written happy, children's and kiddie poetry, and I challenge you one day to write something truly dark.
I'd sure love to see it...
Anyhow, well done. :}

LOL :-)I thought the raiment of autumn was dark - there is dark stuff throughout the portfolio, truly there is, but since Sawyer I just am not very often inspired. Thanks, Dean. Brooke

Well, I can still hope, can't I? :}

Dueling costumes, eh? What a fun time of year to engage with a child! Thank you for sharing this delightful poem of the charming monster, and the handsome photo!

I enjoyed the poem. We need children to brighten up our lives. The world is dark enough. We enjoy our kids until one day, we discover they are all grown up.

Love the photo of Sawyer in his monster suit.
I love seeing the kiddies in their Halloween costumes and you have captured their effect perfectly here.
Thankfully, they are not scary ... just adorable.
Wouldn't mind a whole neighborhood full of monsters like Sawyer.
Hugs, d

Hi adewpearl
I have given this five stars as the presentation, writing, rhythm and rhyme is perfect as always ... but I don't feel the words in Monster who moved to the Neighborhood have as much appeal as some of your other children's poetry might have. If I read this to my 8 year old niece, or my 9 year old grandson I don't think I'd receive much reaction. I hope I'm not being unfair. For example - the word obligation wouldn't do anything for them.
