I enjoyed your celebration of a child's learning colors with your rhymed couplets and colorful examples. Your parallel artwork selection is just right. Best wishes in the competition- Joan

Very fun and catchy, I can easily picture all the bright colors. It could use more details about the sky, like a sunset or sunrise. Very good, fun to read.

A fine way to learn colors for a child by pointing out what object is the color of what they are observing. Nice presentation and word combinations. Best of luck in the contest. Marilyn

The picture you selected is perfect for a child's poem!
The rhyme and meter are dead on!
I love how you used the crayons in the poem,
Best of luck in the Poem For A Child writing contest.

A very well-written poem for children to teach them about the different colors we see every day. When they know the color of the things around them they see the world in color.

Comment from RodG
I think young children will like your poem about colors because you associate each with objects they can easily SEE. But since this is contest entry and this is a poem that rhymes, you need to make your meter more consistent.

Thanks for the advice!

I played with the meter a bit. Can you check it for me if you have time? I don?t care that it?s a contest as much as I want it better. I have a habit of finding these contests when they close in 13 hrs, of course, 8 hrs of which I should be sleeping! Only if you have time - thank you!

I reread your poem and the meter is still inconsistent. Most of your verses are tetrameter (they have four strong beats per line). Here is the simplest way to correct your meter: COUNT SYLLABLES. In your case each line should have EIGHT. Try to alternate the beat by saying out loud each line and listening for the da DUM da DUM da DUM da DUM. Tap your toe to the beat. You?ll get it if you practice. Good luck. Rod

Thanks Rod

I did my best. Some have 7 or 9. It was also tough because it is supposed to sound a bit like a child. I hope it reads better. Thank you so much!

Much, much better. You can be proud of this one now. I added a star. Rod
