CommentsDevious CommentsWell, part of the reason for the admittedly obvious attempts at rhyming is that this poem is a re-write/continuation of another of my poems, which begins with the same first line. It pretty much just happened. Hmmm...maybe after I give it a day or two I'll be able to re-write it a bit better...and you're not the only one who wants answers! lol
-- Bah Humbug...not just a seasonal statement, but a lifestyle commitment. Haha, I hope you didn't find my critique too harsh on your rhyme scheme. I still greatly enjoyed the poem, and I hope the critique helps you make it better
-- The PhotoLit Prompt Autumn Feature anyone? Zach Well, I'm glad you liked it, and I would appreciate your opinion on the revised version, if you would like to. [link]

Unfortunately, all of that was dampened mildly by the distraction caused by your rhyming lines. When I read this, it felt a little like you were taking something - which was very cool - and trying too hard to make it into poetry. This ultimately felt unnecessary.
Overall, I thought you did a very nice job, though I'd suggest minding obvious rhyme in the future. Nice work
