A beautiful photo, a lovely custom and a Christmas pleasure for all to enjoy. You have captured the event very well in your poem, at the same time as giving information. Best wishes for the contest.

How amazing that you had a light show! Every year when I was small we went to see the Blackpool illuminations and it was a great treat, also the lights at the Arboretum in Walsall, both events were joyous, you put your town on the map here, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

Thank you for reading my poem. We just drove through the other day and it made me really happy. I hope you have a lovely Christmas. :)

You have set your poem on a lovely black background with a gorgeous photo, spaced it well. The visual effect or layout even gives the impression of a Christmas tree! You recreate the emotions and sensations of the experience by looking at the place from both the eyes of the adults and the children. The only suggestion I have for improvement would be to tighten up the wording a little: in a few places, especially at the beginning, I found myself trying to find more of a cadence or rhythm. It just seems smoother in the second half. It has a great feel to it, thanks for sharing.

Thank you for reading my poem and for this wonderful 6 star review. I'll definitely look over the first half. I hope you have a lovely holiday. :)

Very good. From the words of your work I want to visit Bentleyville. I love Christmas light shows, everyone does. Your work is technically sound with a good rhyme scheme, has a strong ending and is supported by beautiful art work. Great job, good luck in the contest.

This is a wonderful light hearted poem which well meets the contest requirements. The image and coloration are great touches. The rhymes work well and the piece has a nice lilt to it.
