What a very lovely poem, with a delightful story-line. It would make a wonderful illustrated book for young children. Such perfect rhyme and smooth metre. A pleasure to read. Congratulations - this sounds like a winner to me!

This is an epic tale full of sweet sentiments and I enjoyed the ride Shirley. I loved your flowing metre and your excellent matching rhymes, but most of all I loved your inventive and endearing story, a fine entry for the contest, love Dolly x

This is really cute and reads well. I think kids would really like it.
Just this one part:
They say I'm going crazy and I think they're right, be-blowed!"
Maybe think of re-wording it? My dirty little mind went somewhere not so innocent.
It was a great poem though, good luck in the contest.

Wonderful entry for the Poem For A Child contest. It's perfect for children but adults will like it too. Lovely presentation.

I was worried for the poor dilly dot daisy.... good alliteration.

Good luck in the contest

This was a very cute poem. I like how Dilly-Daisy finds some help. Too often in life when we need help we can't find any. I always try to help, but often don't get any in return. Cute picture, and very appropriate to the poem. Great job!

Shirley, This is a very well written poem about the little daisy looking for spring and finally finding it. You used great descriptive words and very good imagery from your words and the artwork. Best wishes in the contest. Teri

How refreshing for this world that's often upside down. I can see little ones getting engrossed in the thought of the characters interacting as they follow their adventure and find Spring. Ending on a note of joyful happiness is awesome!
Smiles, Carol

I think that this is a masterfully written kiddies poem, superbly written, beautifully paced, articulate and a wonderfully rhymed, it would match anything I've ever read as a writer and a reviewer of poetry that I've ever read, and that's a lot, well done, great writing, blessings Roy
