Very good. Halloween is not a children's holiday anymore. It's been taken over by adults. Now, it's slutty dress-up holiday. What a shame. I loved Halloween when I was young.

Hi Thomas, Thanks very much for your review and it is a shame that your Halloween is now a sluty dress up holiday ( love this descriptin LOL) I actually do not celebrate halloween as it is not an Australian tradition although it has crept in over the last few years and the kids seem to get into it more than the slutty adults. Appreciate your comments Cheers

Thank you for sharing your Halloween themed entry in the Rondeau poem contest. Your sentiments are true, but some of the lines read a bit shaky, as the rhythm isn't consistent throughout.

I enjoyed reading your rondeau, "All Hallows Eve". You followed all the rules for this genre except in line thirteen - the devil's number. The word gen-er-ous has three syllables. Therefore line thirteen has nine syllables. You may wish to review this. Your poem flowed well and I liked your choice of picture.
All the best.

I really enjoyed your Halloween rondeau poem. I particularly liked "ghosts in sheeting".
Very good rhyme. Well done. Good luck in the competition.
