Hello Terry Broxson,
It's a nice piece of Humor Non-Fiction having impressive phraseology, captivating flow throughout from the beginning to the end, and beautifully depicting Eric and John's adventure as well as its after effects!

Comment from Cass Carlton
Golly gosh, so much for wisdom at an early age.What were they thinking? Perhaps they thought the toilet was indestructible for some reason. WRONG!!!! It wasn't the only loo in the house (fortunately), so there was no need for midnight visits to the neighbors. I enjoyed the comment on the agent's reaction to enquiries about cover.
He laughed. I'll bet he did too. Probably lightened his day no end. I am really glad this escapade didn't ruin their futures after all.
It would have been a loss to humanity for these two young minds not to reach their full potential. All's well that ends well, eh what!! cheers Cass

A cautionary tale at an appropriate time of the year. The piece flows well. The images are clear. The piece stays on point. Well done.
Thanks for a good read.

Comment from Sandra Nelms-Ludwig
Good story about the antics of teenaged boys. I like how you developed the plot by describing their book knowledge and educational accomplishments. It was a good foundation for the event to come. The graphic/visual makes sense after reading the story. It fits well.
This line in the story is a bit of an overstatement~ Our now dumber than dirt delinquents surveyed the bathroom. They are hardly dumb, and this one incident doesn't make them delinquents. I feel it would have been good to mention they had book knowledge but were lacking in the commonsense department. Well-done as you know from the honors this piece was awarded.

Nicely done, Terry, and very timely, too. Many fireworks incidents have turned out much more worse than Eric's and John's experiment. Have a safe fourth.

Comment from Ulla
Hi Terry, Oh dear, they didn't know what they were getting themselves into. I do believe they learned their look lesson. I must beadmit that the parents took it very well. But then again they must have realised boys are boys. Hmm!
I loved it. Ulla:)))

That was a great humorous Non-Fiction poem. It was nice how the detail made it so climatic to where the cherry was launched from and what covered it.

I thoroughly enjoy your conversational storytelling style. You usually give an introduction to let the reader know what they might encounter, and in this story, you describe the successful outcome of the lives of the two boys the story is about. Then the backstory provides the 'meat' of the story. This was a delight to read.
