Averages show that the new driver is more apt to have an accident. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a very interesting read.

WHOA! This photo and poem is too funny. It made me smile. Do you know dear poet how good it feels to smile, when I've been crying for days. Thank you! The tone is one of warning and taking heed. liberty justice

The first car s always the most precious car we own. Your granddaughter must be the luckiest person to have a grandmother like you.

This work has reached the exceptional level

This is a fun piece that gives the reader pause for thought. When my sons were learning to drive, I felt the same way. And when their friends also started to drive, I was petrified by the thought of them on the road.

Nice poem... nicely illustrated. Good luck in the contest!

-Nice image.
-You have a good topic to write about, but you do not have it in poem form.
-I would work on taking the experience and breaking it up in phrases.
-Example:
My granddaughter Emma
Got a new car today
-Just make sure when you are done, your syllables add up to 34.
-I like the author notes!
-I will check back and based on that, re-write the review.

This is an excellent entry for the contest
Exact syllables at 34
Written like free verse with a single rhyme
This is supposed to be a poem, but you've listed it as fiction
You can leave it this way, but you won't get the exposure a poem gets
Only Tom can change it. I would contact him under the community Tab
to move it to poetry
Emma looks quite happy, as she should be with that great car
The driving lessons may not be quite as easy
Good use of humor in your poem
And a great picture to match
Well done
Excellent entry, excellent poem, excellent car
Exceptional granddaughter
Good luck in the contest
