I found the peace I('d) known before,

This is a highly commended effort deserving of a six
It is unpretentious with short verses summing up a revisit to childhood with all the sweet, innocent thoughts and memories of her grandparents and the part they played in her life. The rhythm and rhyme scheme ae not exact, but it doesn't detract from the piece at all. A charming read. Well written with a reminder that most mental problems can be countered with a dip into the years of childhood and its peace. Well done cheers Cass

favorite book. there is room within the rhyme scheme to use this word fully without abbreviating it

I stroked him gently.
there is an "r" missing from stroked

Id found the peace I've known before

Only a suggestion buthow do you feel about changing this line to" I've learned to leave all cares behind"

Okay, I guess if I enter this contest, I will be trying win second place, because you've taken the number one spot, and you did it before you kissed the morning dew.

I am thoroughly impressed. I found myself smiling as I read, while wondering can she keep this perfection up. And you did.

Well done and I hope do well in the contest. You have my vote. Out of six
