An enjoyable read. Life as a busy young adult without the care and responsibilities of life. I could see your daughter's hectic life as I read it. The picture and colour font all add to the story being told. Well done :-)

    Thanks so much! Yes I think young adulthood can be one of the best times of life.
    The picture from fan review looks a little like my daughter!

Lovely artwork and a fun poem. I don't have children myself, but I can sure see this in my stepdaughter...the hair, the makeup, the LOAN, haha!

The only thing I'd add (just for me, personally) is the lack of getting a return text - Lol. I don't even try to call her anymore.

They have fun, don't they! Lovely piece.

    Thanks Carol again for stopping by! Your interest is so appreciated.
    Step parents are parents too! I bet you're a great mom or co-mom if you will to your step daughter.
    A great idea to consider for revision, the return or lack thereof of a text. Although my daughter does return mine...eventually. ..
    Looking forward to reading your work !
    Thanks again for stopping by.

I like your short poem about the life of a teenager. I enjoyed reading it and it flows well. Your artwork choice is wonderful. Good alliteration of words her hair in your second sentence.

Writer captures reader attention defining to them the young and their efforts in summer, I find it a delightful read, writer presentation of lines making this work precise in concepts

    Thanks so much for the reading and review! Much appreciated. Glad if you "felt" it in some way--I think what I intended came through. You're right--you have to be so precise in poetry, more so than in prose.
    Thanks again. I'll stop by and look at your work when I can. Have a great weekend.

Mystery writer, I'm guessing you were once a teenage girl OR perhaps the father of a teenage girl. As a female myself, I can appreciate this insightful poem. Realistic, well told, and right to the point.
Well done, and good luck

    I think it's okay to reveal that I have the XX chromosome, LOL, so I'm writing from both memory and watching my daughter.
    Thanks so much for the reading and review, much appreciated:)
    I'll stop by and look at your work too as soon as I can.
    Have a great weekend.

This is very descriptive and well written. Th Teenager's lifestyle is well depicted. The presentation is nicely done and the word pattern sets the carefree mood of the poem
