Comment from Jacob David Collins

Excellent

I enjoyed reading this. It's amazing how much you can learn from other people's work on this site, and improve your own writing at the same time. Your poem did make me wonder who you were referring to as well. A well written piece. Good luck in the contest!

A fine tribute to Helen and all her knowledgeable and informative posts as she has such a fond awareness of life, words, facts, figures and delivered them with great finesse as she teaches us. She will no doubt be honoured by this tribute and your praise is truthful and complimentary, and a joy to read, love Dolly x

Hello my friend

I love Lyenochka, and she definitely deserves kudos. She is very kind and helpful. She is going to live this poem in her honor. How nice of you. Well done my friend. Great entry for the
Teacher's Appreciation writing prompt contest.

I second the motion! Lyenochka rules--she's been of much help to me; I reworked a two-part monologue to a dialog on her advice--the play was far more powerful for it. Lovely tribute! Cheers. LIZ

But when it comes to Helen I agree, she's very good with her research, she's only been here for only a short time, relatively speaking. Her greatest area of growth is in poetry, that growth has been exponential. She's a real asset to this site.this is an excellent post and entry in this contest, good luck, blessings, Roy
I thought it was twaddle, but then it could be that.

Being a teacher myself, this poem really hit a tender spot! Wonderful and natural rhyming; well done! (Hopefully we'll be going back to school very soon!)

'I value new words - I have never known" (I don't think you need the hypen - it reads well without it)

A sweet poem about the admiration for a teacher.

I enjoyed reading this tribute to one of our own poets whose work I also enjoy. This is an excellent entry for the writing prompt contest. The rhyme scheme also works well
