Such a beautiful little girl Ameen. You must be so very proud of her for real. Your poem of milk and honey runs over with praises for her. So very wonderful.

Strong rhyming couplets in good minute poem form
You have good syllable count and stanza structure of the form, too
Not all your lines are perfectly iambic, but it only strays in places
for instance HELPS my HEART is how that reads naturally to me, not helps MY heart
also, her HEART's TONic - is how that reads to me naturally, not HEART's tonIC
and I read PERfect PHONic - not perFECT
That is the reason for the 4 rating :-) Brooke

    I figure my fellow writers and friends are posting to get useful feedback, not to just have everyone say nice job every single time. When I point out a nit when I see it, then when I praise something, you know I mean it. If I just say nice job every single time, you could stop believing me :-)

Aw! I have one of those sweet little grandaughters too, mine is 17 months old. Yes, she means the whole world to me. So precious, innocent, and how they love us. Your poem is beautiful. It is sweet, the photo is also sweet. I love the end "a team we are." They surely are the greatest joys in life. Every moment is precious. Enjoy your time with her! Good luck in the contest.

I love the picture. She is a lovely girl. She knows she is loved. Grandchildren are the rewards we get for raising our own children. Good work Grandpa!

Hi Mystery Author! This is a nice minute poem. I love your subject and the affection that comes across in your words :) I had a little bit of trouble with the iambic tetrameter in the second stanza but that could just be me. Best wishes to you in the contest :)
