Probably a great ditty for older kids who would love the language. I certainly did, but I'm a boy at heart anyway. This is most imaginative in content, I just loved it, an excellent post, and you've put a great deal of effort and soul into it, well done, good luck, blessings Roy

Good job

Comment from Michele Harber

This is a sweet poem, backed by an equally sweet idea. Like most kids, I, too, grew up surrounded by and singing silly songs that didn't have to make sense. All they had to do was make you smile -- and I can definitely think of worse things than making a child smile! I hope this poem has the same effect on a child. Good luck in the contest.

Excellent entry for the Children's Poetry Contest.

Your grandmother was wonderful. She created memories you will never forget.

The rhymes and meter didn't seem forced and it flows well.

the structure makes sense, it draws on emotions and it presents strong images.

I Would recommend it.

Comment from Terry Broxson

An excellent poem for this contest. I think it could do well and I wish you good luck. My original vision as I read the poem was a music class in elementary school. But your note conjures up a room full of grandkids around a piano. Either way, great fun and well done. Terry.

This is such a delightful poem, Stu. It invites children to have fun and just be silly, making up words to stir their creativity and love of music.
Your grandmother sounded like a wise and enchanting woman.
Very well written.
I wish you well in the contest.
Best wishes,
Mary

This was a fun read.
Thanks for the sillies! Your grandmother was a wise woman. Silly singing makes a joyful soul. And those jingles stay with us forever.
Good job.
