Hi HDC,

This is a fantastic poem. The tone is formal. It suits the poem and subject matter very well. The poem is about being careful about using words correctly and eloquently when you write poetry. I very rarely write poetry. I'm not very good at it, but the word usage in poems does seem to make a big difference. I loved this poem and read to the last word. The rhyme is well done and consistent. It gives the poem a wonderful rhythm. The meter is consistent from line to line. The poem flows extremely well. It is a pleasure to read. You have used punctuation and grammar consistently in this poem. There is nothing to distract the reader from their reading pleasure. Great job.
