Hi Gen Welcome to Writing.com and also to the 30 Day Blogging Challenge's 'Official' competition round of March. I am also participating in the blogging challenge, and I have chosen your poem Summer Street to review as part of today's prompt. Review of Summer Street There are four verses of four lines per verse. Each verse begins with the line: 'There is a house on Summer Street.' This reminded me of the song: House of the Rising Sun. I even tried to recite your poem to the tune of the song. You can do it, so I liked your poem even more. I read your poem a few times. It has good meter in my opinion. I liked that you used a couple strong rhymes and a couple loosely rhymed words. Doing that, gave your poem a sense of maturity. This poem also packed an emotional punch. I found it somewhat dark, with an eerie underscore. I enjoyed reading and reviewing your poem. May you enjoy writing many, many more, and good luck with the 30 DBC. Cheers Joel
