Review of Pluto?  Open in new Window.
Review by Valerie O Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (4.5)
Interesting topic. I take it, you were following a specific poetry format. A sedoka perhaps? You did a great job with the syllables. And I agree, someone needs to make the final decision as to what Pluto is...children everywhere are failing science tests because of it *Smile*

Cute! Your cat must love you! I wish I could just lay in bed and relax like that more often. I haven't done that in a while, but thanks for reminding me of how relaxing it can be. I don't see any errors, and I have no suggetions. Another job well done.

Review of Justice  Open in new Window.

Another well-written poem. I don't see any errors. Your descriptions painted a picture in my mind. My favorite part of the poem is line 5. There is detail, imagery, emotion, and personification all in one spot, that it could be a poem all by itself.

Here's a donation for your contest. I only wish I could give more. This contest helped me learn a lot when I started off here at WDC, so it holds a special place in my heart. I'm glad to see that it is still around, and hopefully more donations will keep it going.
