Whoa! This was great. The picture was perfect for this poem. The words you chose were really good. I tried this poem. I found it difficult. But you are one that really nailed it. Great job.

The image you create will draw the reader in, some attracted, so jealous, some regretting, some egoically identifying, others, admiringly. I like the humor. Well thought out.

Dear Mystery Writer,

hahahahaha You are voicing the hopes and dreams of every princess in every tower that ever lived. I can't help but think of the princess in Shrek. She did not get - initially - what she thought she wanted. Sometimes our dreams come in differently shaped packages. Thanks!

The knight in the night with the shiny armour: "
Just beneath that brightly knightly vest

There's a more than slightly sightly guest" thank you for sharing and good luck with the contest.

This poem is fun and I wish I can write one today or tomorrow. You have inspired me. I might write one now.

You have painted quite a man with an armor.

Well done.

    From your review, I surmise that you liked it. However, you did not tell me what needed to be fixed in order to merit the four stars (indicating that 'adjustments are needed'). Could you please share those suggested changes; otherwise, I'm left wondering what should be done to make it better.... thank you for your time.

    Sorry that was a mistake. I have changed to Five stars.

There's definitely a Don Quixote-ish feel about this poem--I hope intentionally. Whether or not, it hangs together nicely, with a catchy two-syllable meter which is carried forward into the last two lines. Good job. I think it will do well in the contest.
