Hello Jmf4119
I had fun reading you free verse
and I smiled while reading about the gnomes that kept disappearing. Now I have one gnome that I keep indoors In the winter when there is snow. In the spring; out doors he goes to sit in my flower garden where the neighbors cat watch over him.
Thank you for posting your story.
Gert

I really enjoyed reading your poem and imagining the gnomes antics. We have some out in our garden, only a few, but I bet they move sometimes too, like toy story haha.

This little ditty made me smile. Some people do get carried away with
lawn ornaments. I like your rhyming. I like your first line......Nan never met
a gnome she didn't like.

It definitely sounds as though the neighborhood took this into their own hands and did away with the gnomes. Not a very neighborly thing to do, especially to a new neighbor who loved her gnomes. This is very well written, clear and concise. You found a great image to accompany your writing. Great job!

    Thank you Therese for your thoughtful and insightful review.
    The gnomes are back so I'm not sure if it was the neighbors or maybe Nan just took them in for a cleaning. We may never know.

Thank you for making lemonade out of lemons with this sequence of rhythmic quatrains. I enjoyed your rhymes but was surprised by the neighbors' intolerance. Smiles- Joan

How fun! I like the way you make the gnomes movements and appearances so mysterious giving them a magical feel. I hope the neighborhood has adjusted to your new neighbor's garden decoration habits!

Hmmmmm.... are you sure that was your only answer, Janet? After all, the gnomes did disappear.... :) :) :) A wonderfully smooth and rhythmic offering, my lady -- thanx for sharing! ;) Yvette

Cute poem. I wished you had continued it further to show Nan's response to her disappearing gnomes. This could continue on for a long time! Nice work. Keep on writing.

Be blessed, Jude

This is really cute and I like it. I guess that I would be surprised walking outside to see my neighbor's yard littered with gnomes as far as the eye could see. I would have loved to been there to see that look that you're describing. Thanks for sharing this humorous and well written work. Well done!
