This is a complex poem for a child and lengthy as well. Having said that, the story is interesting and well-told, apar from the lack of punctuation. This would have made it easier for a child to follow. I think this poem is designed for the upper age-range of childhood, or for children who are absolutely addicted to reading.

Good writing, my friend. I was rooting for that snail from the beginning! The only thing I would have liked to have seen is more color, either in the background or the font, or perhaps a graphic. I feel it would bring out the joy of the words! Good luck!

What a cute story! I think any child or adult would thoroughly enjoy this poem. I also highly approve of incorporating words that may not be familiar to most youngsters such as Chanticleer. What better way to increase their vocabulary? This is such a great poem. Good luck in the contest. MM

Teamwork makes the dream work. There may not be an I in team, but there is one in win. It is right there in the middle. So if the team is strongly united behind the one , then that one will win and magnify the whole team. This is a magically wonderful tale that I am sure most if not all children of all ages can enjoy. I know that I certainly did.

Bubbins and the Easter Bunny


Hello anonymous

Interesting Easter poem. I had a hard time following the train of thought. I had a great Easter Sunday, I hope yours was too.

You have a vivid use of words that creates a clear picture of the Easter Bunny, the snail and the other animals, I especially love the mention of the dragonfly and the hummingbirds. Excellent poem for children and adults that can be an Easter tradition. I can see your poem with illustrations.
