5/7/5 Bye Bye Blackbird27 total reviews
Comment from Cybertron1986
I like how the "heartfelt melody" and "winsome glee" collaborated. It brought out the nature of the chickadee beautifully, and, as the reader, I was able to internally visualize a lively bird. Well done!

Comment from Susan Burger
This is a very nice entry for the Bye Bye Blackbird writing prompt. I also love the chickadee. It is one of my favorite birds! I didn't check the rules, but I like that you have all three lines rhyming. Good luck in the competition with this one!

Comment from RodG
We have flocks of these chickadees in northern Illinois, but I love our state bird--the cardinal. You describe it subjectively as "steadfast and winsome," terms I really like. Good use of rhyme in this short poem.
