Excellent

You've written a fine Nonet poem and entry for the contest
with an excellent addition of rhymes
The theme of rain, sun, and evaporation
works well and matches the picture
Nicely done
Good luck in the contest

The author's words are descriptive, clear and creative.
The reader pondered on the beauty of the rainbow.
The artwork is perfect and compliments both the words
and theme of this poem.

Hello kahpot,

I enjoyed reading your first ever nonet poem :) You did a fine job with this contest entry. Your syllables in each line are perfect. You tell an interesting story about how the rain nurtures the life in your area. I'm pleased to see you managed to add aabb rhymes throughout. That takes extra work and talent. Well done.

Best wishes to you in this contest.

Joy xx

Well, kahpot, for your first whack at writing a Nonet I felt you managed to do one heckuva job, for what it's worth.
I wish you the very best of luck in the contest.
