Excellent

I could visualize the terrible morning you were having. Very well written.
I loved your gift of rhyming and the quaint trace of humor.
The facial expression on the accompanying picture, so descriptive.
Presented in a clear but bright setting.

Well done. Frankeddy

Well, as a nearly bald man...I can relate to the coffee pot not working. Now THAT would be a catastrophe.

What I liked about your poem was its good-natured way of dealing with a situation, I'm guessing, was a real beg deal at the time.

Have a straight day.

I am so sorry you are nearly bald but you probably wouldn't use a curling iron anyway. Thanks for your review.

This is hysterical...and so true. Why is it that we are never satisfied with what we were born with? The rhyming and flow are excellent. Love the photo! A scene from real life condensed so well. Enjoyed!

I like your bad hair day poem. Funny how our hairstyles affect our day. This is a fun poem with good rhythm and flow. The subject is excellent, because everyone can relate to it. Your style is good and rhyming excellent.

I really hate when things stop working - especially alarm clocks. This is a great poem. The tone is appropriate to the subject matter. The word choice is great. It gave me a chuckle.

You use your sense of rhyme in a way that really works in this cute little story in the form of a poem. I enjoyed it and can certainly relate. It's one of those days you should have stayed in bed. Loved it.

I found this poem very cute and pretty well written. The rhymes were very slick and I admittedly chuckled through it. Overall, good job!

Thanks so much for your review. Anything you can suggest that I can improve? Would appreciate some feedback.

Hmm, not much comes to mind. If it wasn't supposed to be humorous, I would say that the rhymes are a little cheesy in some places and it's all very light-hearted. But considering the theme, I'd say it works for you. For this poem, I'd say keep it as is.

When the day doesn't start out right, it can leave a frazzled feeling. We need to look our best to face the day, and of course women need their beauty appliances. It's so irritating when something goes out at the wrong time like that. Thanks for the laugh. I enjoyed your humor, and yes, days like that really happen.

I liked the theme of this poem. What we women go through to present ourselves to the world! There are a few friends who won't go out of the house without makeup and hair done up, so can understand how a curling iron melt-down could be so catastrophic. Nicely done and good luck in the contest.

It is strange how we are never happy with our God given gifts, if you have curly hair you want straight and vice versa, no me I love my straight hair... well written and fun...
