Nice job on your poem. I don't recall ever having a concussion, although perhaps if I had one, it would be difficult to remember. It sure sounds painful. I believe I'd heard something about them in football players. They're noting to be trifled with. I hope that you get better. Thanks for sharing.

You have done an excellent job of sharing the awful side effects of a concussion. Very detailed and precise. The illustration is perfect for the poem and intense in its bright colors. Great job!

Your rhyming couplets read well. There's good flow, good rhymes, and great imagery. I could see this as I read. You are right about the effects of concussions. The picture plus your words match well.
Thank you for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan

Heavens! Did this really happen to you? Somebody whacked you?
I'm so sorry if it did.
However, if this is fiction, you really describe it well. In fact, you've created a visual that's hard to forget. And if true, I'm sure is hard for you to forget.
At any rate, you start with a bang (pardon) , endure pain, and hopefully it ends with a positive resolution.

    Thanks for your review Katharine. This is 100% true, I work with kids with intellectual disabilities and sometimes the only way they can show frustration is to hit. My ducking skills need work lol.

    well, I don't want to sound like your mother, but I hope you're being extra careful, and you feel much better soon.
    That's an admirable thing you're doing.
