Haha, that took a lot of nerve, Jessica. I enjoyed
reading your fun contest entry. Great job with the
requirements of the contest. I liked the Rosie/nosy
rhyme. I believe nosey is spelled nosy unless it's a
UK spelling.
Thanks for sharing and best wishes in the contest, Jan

Thank you Jan!! Your comment made me laugh, as I originally couldn?t remember the correct spelling either! (turns out, both are acceptable) but in the process, I spaced out completely, not realizing I had Rosie spelt..Rosey! Haha Caught it early enough thank goodness, phew! Thanks for your review!

Excellent

nicely done Landay poem you nailed the short, snarky sarcasm that is the essence of this poetic form. the internal rhymes work well too although the form does not require it.

Your Landay fits the syllable count and the sarcasm requirement nicely! The lack of self-awareness of the speaker is funny. The picture you chose suits the tone of your poem nicely.

-Good artwork and nice presentation, Jessica.
-The syllable count is good, along with the topic.
-Effective imagery and internal rhyme.
-You did a good job with the sarcasm
showing the nerve of Rosey and then
describe her audacity when you had
looked in her diary!!
-Well done and good luck!!

I found the author's words interesting to read. They are clear, descriptive,
and creative. The poem is thought provoking and I sensed anger! The
poem flows and connects well. The artwork is perfect and compliments
this poem.

You certainly use irony very well! The odd thing is that people who are the subject of irony, rarely see it! That of course may be a good thing! I like the illustration too.

Yes! I found it a challenging fact to portray in so few syllables, so I?m thrilled you got that! Haha thank you so much.

I love irony- Austen is one of my favourite novelists!

LOL, this Landy poem is very fun. I have never heard of Landay before, but you have executed this challenge very well. I wish you good luck in the contest. And I agree Rosie did have some audacity, indeed! Excellent work. Terry.

Looks like all the requirements have been met for a Landay entry, syllables and sarcasm.

I'm still snickering as I'm writing this. The second line took me by surprise!

Good luck in the contest.
John
