Summertime Is Precious [E] Living in Northeastern USA has some of us treasuring warmer seasons. |
Welcome to WdC from the "Newbie Welcome Wagon" Hi Jabberwb ! I saw you were new here so I wanted to come say hello! Welcome to Writing.Com! Oh gosh, this is such a lovely piece! It flows easily off my tongue when I read it aloud and presents such a nice picture of summertime! Your rhyme scheme is beautiful as well. My favorite stanza is the third about the geese and goslings - sweet! I only noticed a few tiny edits you might consider - In line 3, I believe the word its should not have an apostrophe. And it looks like there is an extra line space between the third and fourth stanzas. Both very minor edits I like to share some tips about enhancing the formatting and readability for your piece because these are key to keep readers from clicking away too soon. I recommend increasing the font size of poems from the standard size 3 to a size 4, or even size 5 depending on the length of the piece and the space it takes up on the page. Increasing the font size and even adding a font color will bring your piece to life and help it stand out from the rest of the wording on the site. Centering a poem like this would also help make it stand out a bit more You can read more about how to enhance your text with WritingML at this link: "Effective Formatting" If you're looking for more tips and tricks for drawing more readers and earning more reviews, check this out: "Seeking Reviews" Don't hesitate to let me know if there is anything I can help you with!
