Playing hide n sneak and something wonderful happens16 total reviews
Comment from Pullmanspb
Some times all I can do is to pay attention to my reaction to a poem, what the poem evokes. It brings back memories how a bunch of us, as teens, would plan hide-and-seek, at night. I recall the smug joy when I hid so well the rest of the seekers had to give up.
That was a fun time and that was a fun powm.

As a child, it is an adventure to go where it is forbidden to go. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a good read.

For not having any formal training in poetry I think you've done a really good job with this one. Wonderful poetic language and metaphors used throughout!

Very unusual and interesting take on the world of Nature. Your well chosen words tell us the flower's view of life. I think 'pedals' should be 'petals'.

This poem is well written, Parissa. It has that clever double meaning and makes you see the sunflower in a whole new light. Writing this from this perspective can also be interpreted to life and living as a person, well done.
