Hi, Treischel,
"Teach Thy Children" is an excellent poem following the structure you specified for the Lyrical Virelai. The rhyme and the poem although adequate does not meet the standard of being exceptional.
Your friend and colleague,
Preston

Hi there, Tom

What an interesting style of poetry...

You demonstrate this form beautifully here in this splendid example of what education means to our children.

Well done!

I think you did an admirable job capturing the eager minds of youth. Kids can soak up information faster than any sponge I own. Oh to have that kind of mind again!

I really like the format of the poem. The repetition and physical appearance are very pleasing. Well done, Tom.

Another fascinating form to add to what must be an impressive total. What I admire he is not only the scholarly research that you put in but your ability to then go and write a perfect example of what you have been describing. Many congratulations.

Well written and the children should be learned about everything in this world. Atva young age they are still eager to learn and they should be encouraged all the time.

Your Virelai does have a song-like quality, and I enjoyed your refrain plus rhythm and rhymes. Thanks for the photo of the raptor as well. Cheers- Joan

Another beautifully piece. I am an avid supporter of taking children from an industrial area to an agrarian and wildlife preserved area. So many children are clueless as to nature. No wonder that they know and employ little conservation efforts or make plans for a more pristine future.
