"Game of ThronesOpen in new Window. Hello Joy! My name is Sandra. I am one of the sky foxes.
Title: Fairy's Favor
First Impression: What a delightful poem. The title appealed to me and tickled my curiosity. That almost ominous preview " when the tooth fairy is caught" is a great hook. I felt compelled to read more to find out what happened. I thought what could possibly occur? Your explanation spells it out in rhyme. I never considered that a fairy could and would be caught.
What needs your attention: This may well be just me, but I find the meter, the rhythm of this poem is not consistent. The lines range from six to seven to eight beats in no pattern. This does not however detract from the story revealed herein. It is still charming.
What part I liked best: I find the concept, the idea of this poem to be unique and imaginative. Imagine the capture of the elusive tooth fairy. Most of us have never even glimpsed sight of her. She lives in legend and evokes magic. The child's vested interest in the reward money is believable. Indeed it would be viewed as a "windfall." I love the two stanza description of this trapped fairy. The word pictures of " wings of stardust glitter" and "halo in lavender hue" are fantastic. Congratulations on rhyming phenom and palm. Clever and original to claim that the fairy shapeshifts into the very thing she has come to claim. I appreciate the enthusiasm ,the emphatic "wow geronimo" of the final line. I was cheering as well.
Overall Impression: I will reiterate, this is a delightful poem. Thank you for allowing me to read your work. It has been my pleasure. What does the fox say? Listen carefully.
