Comment from Dean Kuch
Well, Anonymous Poet, if this poem doesn't put you in the mood for those hot summer days coming up nothing will.
When the heat is that sweltering you find and take relief anyway you can possibly get it.
Good modified Minute that includes all of the words required-- a well written entry for the writing prompt.
Good luck!

Comment from Rachelle Allen
I absolutely love this poem!! I love the lilting rhyme and perpetual rhythm of it and the joy of its message. (Plus, you found the absolutely PERFECT picture!) My favorite part was "cement beach in month of May." You did a terrific job, and I hope you do well in the contest. (But whether you do or not, it's STILL a terrific poem.) xo

This looks like a lot of fun and the way you describe this event is superb and well thought out. I don't think that these children are thinking about the ocean here. The rhyme and flow is good and the artwork is spot on. I enjoyed reading this well written work. Well done!

My sincere thanks for your review!!
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written nearly a minute poem about the prescribed words that you seem to use well. When there is not an ocean nearby, any puddle of water will feel like waves from the ocean in the heat.

It might help if you bold the words required by the prompt. You did make your poem rhyme, make sense, and entertaining. Good luck in the contest.

Comment from Robert Zimmerman
That is a nice poem that clearly meets the rules for composition but it is very entertaining and somewhat nostalgic. I'm reminded of the days when not everyone had a swimming pool but there was always a hydrant close by. It brought to my mind this song from the Lovin' spoonful back in the 60s. "Summer in the city."

I thought thos was an interesting piece for the contest. I also liked how lengthy the poem was and the mere fact that it rhymed helped as well. Great job and good luck in the contest.
