I loved this, absolutely loved it, but I would take 'whilst circles call clowns!' off the last line if it were me. It makes as much sense and has a better flow if you do that I think. Taking my advice or no, this is a great poem.

I thought this was a fun poem and really well written, I have to say that I really like the image of Hogwarts as well. I liked also the inclusion of different characters as well which made your poem come to life even more. I enjoyed reading it, good luck in the contest!

Amazing ABC poem. Full of enchantment and imagery.
Including the likes of Arthur and Galahad puts a
bow on your poem.
Your castle print puts the reader on the guest list.
your poem has the pizazz of a magical spell.
Your entry is written nobly and should be the poem
to beat!
Peace,
Richie b

An Enchanted Celebration

Hello my friend,

This poem looks a lot like the work of my friend, Yvette, but I am not sure. The presentation is breathtaking. The fantasy poem is awesome. Well done my friend. I never have seen a complete alphabet for the ABC Poetry contest.

This work has reached the exceptional level

I had to give this a six star rating because I couldn't even imagine tackling the ABC contest. You have handled the challenge like a pro and I am so amazed by this work. The artwork is perfect too! This is a standout.

A very well-written ABC poem calling all the witches and wizards for an annual party where everything is just magical from the music to the dances happening with their wands.

Oh wow! LOVED this poem! I was really dubious about the idea of an ABC poem but you've really managed to interweave the progression of the alphabet throughout the poem pretty flawlessly (the only point it feels forced is the X, but let's face it; that is always going to be a head-scratcher). I also really enjoyed all of references to literary fantasy characters. Very nicely done.

I'm sorry, I didn't know the meaning of the words in the first two lines, but
I was able to read enough of your poem to say it was delightful. I wish
I was invited. It's very good work in spite of my illiteracy.

    Lol! ;) Worry not, sir -- the first one is a word stage magicians have used forever: say it out loud while you reach into your hat to pull out a rabbit (wink, wink!). ;) Oh, and the second one? Completely and totally made up .... sort of like the other 'magic word' from the old Hollywood movies about genies and stuff: Ala-kazzam!! ;) ;) I am really glad you enjoyed my silly poem... was just in one of those moods, I suppose! Take care and enjoy the week ahead! ;)

Your title is a good description for this lovely ABC poem including many of the well known storybook characters.
Still no word from Harry - cheeky line, made me smile. Enjoyed your poem, good luck in the contest,
cheers
