It looked to me as if your syllable count was perfect, Anonymous Poet
As for the content of your nonet, I cannot ride anything that spins around.
Rollercoasters, Ferris Wheels, even the Whip 'n' Whirl I can handle.
But a merry go round, or those little lady bug things with a steering wheel looking device you turn to make it spin faster...NO WAY! I'll upchuck my cookies every time.
Best of luck to you in the contest.

Define Top, I'm out of my dialect,here. No matter. it's true that even sensitive folks like the merry go round, while avoiding the tilt-a-whirl and such. I think you have the counts right.

Very good nonet poem. I used to love merry-go-rounds as a kid but you can't seem to find them at parks these days. I wish they were still around for my granddaughter to experience. Thank you for sharing

A well-written Nonet. The merry-go-round is the most favored ride by smaller children.
One syllable count midtake in fourth line.
No dizz'ness at all either (7 instead of 6)
No dizziness either (6)

I like the theme, merry-go-round but the style of poem does not work for me. It Reads like a memory running away but is too stilted to be a thought. It is well written, hence the five. Thank you for sharing. Good luck in the contest.
