Hi Chris,

This is a fantastic poem. The tone is formal. It suits the poem and subject matter very well. The poem is about resolutions and how we strive to fulfill them. I make a resolution every year and always try to maintain my resolve to achieve it. I loved this poem and read to the last word. The Acrostic poetic form works very well in this poem, and you have handled it very well. 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 the words New Years Resolutions very creatively in this poem. You have used punctuation and grammar consistently in this poem. There is nothing to distract the reader from their reading pleasure. Great job.
