A Big Flashy Fun Rainbow Ball [E] Bunny and Honey, Harry and Larry plan a picnic for the neighborhood |
Greetings, ผีKåreEngaในMontana, I am reviewing this today as one of two judges for the "Writing 4 Kids Contest " . Please do not edit your limerick until after the winners are announced! Thank you! First of all, my reviews are intended to be helpful and encouraging, not hurtful in any way. Use what you feel works for you, and leave the rest. Visually appealing Very much so! Easy to understand Yes Followed the prompt & rules Didn't include line count. First Impression What a great piece! I have not read many items in the Gay/Lesbian genre for children; I felt this was very well done. Meter: Required meter for the contest was 8/8/5/5/8. Your first stanza was 9/9/6/6/9. Although you did not meet the required meter, it sounds and flows great, just the way it is. Your second and third stanzas are a perfect 8/8/5/5/8. Rhyme: Good job. Flow: Excellent flow! Nice and bouncy. Technicalities: I didn't notice any typos. Favorites: When Harry wed Larry he knew that soon they would have a big crew; now Barbie and Bob, Rebecca and Rob, two puppies, five kitties and you! I can picture a photo here! Final thoughts: Have you thought about writing in the Gay/Lesbian genre for children? My guess would be there is a need for this genre. Your limerick is fun and bouncy and I'm sure kids would enjoy it. Best of luck in the contest! My review has been submitted for consideration in "Good Deeds Get CASH!" .
