A challenging poetic exercise here to be addressed but excellently executed in this poem for the contest -Billy Bowfish is an interesting character, nay, an entrepreneur.

"Noone" = no one -- two separate words

The prompt is calling for a 'silly' poem and of course, a fish wearing a bow tie fits the bill.

But yours goes above and beyond, IMO -- I'll be grinning all day.

I thought this poem was both humorous and heartwarming. I think we all should be like Billy Bowfish and embrace the things that make us stand out and live and lead with our hearts.

I really enjoy your attention to detail. Your poem is a winner on every line. You have mastered the silly fish theme with all your funny clothes and nose references. A joy to read, well done.

That is a lovely story for a child to read. It tells us that we are all different, and that is okay. You can try to change what you see as your flaws and hopefully in doing so you widen yourself to make greater connections.

What an excellent kiddies poem, this would suit the littlies up to grade two I think, beautifully crafted poem with lots of childlike imagery, flow and good rhyme, which is really what we need for this type of poem. Well done, blessings Roy

What a great children's poem.
Great continuity and rhyme. I spotted one spelling error which is the first word of line seven. This would be perfect for a children's book. Great job.

Your delightful and imaginative poem beautifully weaves together a wonderful positive message. I think with the rhymes this would be a joy to read aloud to a child. This poem is not only a testament to your creative storytelling but also a touching lesson on finding purpose and joy through helping others. Bravo!
