Greetings, Mastiff! I am reviewing this because I am part of "I Write in 2020. *Smile*


*Quill* First of all, my reviews are intended to be helpful and encouraging, not hurtful in any way. Use what you feel works for you, and leave the rest.


What I Liked

         *Bullet* I love your rhyming title, Fishing and Wishing

         *Bullet* I love your ending! *Laugh* It's perfect.

         *Bullet* You have some great visuals, such as

                   Trees bent back a bough,
                   to reveal a bobcat!


         *Bullet* I had no trouble following the story and I rather enjoyed it! *Bigsmile* Howling flowers, hissing rocks, and talking fish? I think you should take a gander at my newly revised "Writing 4 Kids Contest !


Suggestions to Consider

         *Bullet* After reading through your story-poem the first time, I decided to read it aloud and still concluded that the meter is a bit off and inconsistent. It's close though! *Wink* And it wouldn't be too difficult to even out everything. Stanzas 5, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, & 13 had great rhythm and flow! So that leaves 1-4, 6 and 9 to whittle down a bit (if you choose, of course *Wink*.) I found nothing else to offer suggestions on. *Smile*


Final Thoughts

         I noticed you placed 3rd in the contest! Congratulations!!! It's a fun piece and quite entertaining! You are a storyteller! Now go check out my "Writing 4 Kids Contest .


Have a great day and...*Quill*
