A great children's Rispetto! Motivating, encouraging and fun. Wish I had read this wonderful creation when I first began on this site because, just maybe, I would have learned the da Dum's a lot faster than I did :)

Thank you for the great review, C. Gale. Yes, it took me a little while to learn the da Dums. I really appreciate the generous stars. I'm glad you liked the piece.

Loved it.
Comment from Karen Estep
This is so much fun! I really enjoyed reading this. As a former preschool teacher I can see how children would react in learning this. Your graphic also went well with your writing, adding a bit of enthusiasm!

Well that rhymed well and I liked the flow. Can't say I have anything negative to say about it. However, I think it was clever to use da Dum da Dum da Dum da Dum.
Good Luck

Comment from Katherine M. (k-11)
How I wish you had written this poem last December, just before the Sonnet Class - it would have been of tremendous help to me as I struggled terribly to understand da dum, all through January (fortunately Pantygnt is a wonderul teacher).

Comment from Katie Mae Dead
This is so absolutely amazing poet! What a great idea to use a rispetto to teach a Rispetto. Your rispetto is in perfect form with good, strong rhymes and flawless meter. Best wishes for the contest with this awesome write.
Ps. One note I wanted to make was the the use of the word "mocking". Forgive me but as a retired teacher I saw the effects of bullying on children. Teaching a child to "mock" someone may not be the best lesson. How about using the word "helping"? It has a more positive note.
Take care

Thank you for the fantastic review, Katie. To be honest, I was really only goofing around, poking some fun at all the entries that joined your contest but didn't adhere to the iambic meter rule. Lol. I'll give the change some thought though. I really appreciate the generous stars and for creating the contest. I had fun with it. Have yourself a great day.
Comment from Bonnie Seach
Duh-DUH, duh-DUH, duh-DUH, duh-DUH. How I love the iambic verse (here in tetra iambic)
A brilliant idea for this contest.
The virtual presentation with a fitting picture enhances the idea admirably.
Best wishes for the contest!

Wow, thank you so much for the fantastic review and the giant sixer, Bonnie. I'm a stickler for the iambic as well. Lol. I dearly appreciate the gracious stars and good luck wishes. I'm glad you liked this silly little piece. I hope you have yourself a wonderful day and thank you again.

I think this Rispetto is very good and very cleverly presented. I wasn't t aware what a Rispetto poem was until I saw it on FS. Good luck In the contest.
