Thank you for this nice review. I have no doubt that you will win a contest soon. :) I really appreciate hearing from you.
Comment from poesyapprentice
If it wouldn't offend, as it tends to do in general, despite the fact that it means good write, I'd have given an honest 4 stars. (One of the very few dislikes for me on an otherwise lovely site). I really enjoyed the imagery and flow of the beginning of the write, the first "stanza" of imagery particularly. There was a skip in the flow for me with the step closer line. The rhyming was good with the exception of the one place it didn't. It's all in fun and it's all done,
to cause my visitors delight! Perhaps awaits rather than waits in So candy waits and I do too?Just a possible suggestion : ) You might be able to dress this piece up with a little editing and a steady syllable count for a sparkling sixer. I really enjoyed the last 3 lines. A smile at the end. Thank you for sharing and promoting your work. I wish you luck in the vote.

Thank you for your honest opinion. I took your advice and made some changes you suggested, I always appreciate learning from others. Thanks again for reading. :)

Thank you for your gracious reply. After being on site for awhile I learn which of the poets I'm able to offer an honest, hopefully helpful, review without offense, but with a blind contest I have know way of knowing so it's a risk. There used to be a fellow on here that was always truthful in a kind way and I credit him for the improvement I made in my own writing during that time. I really miss that since I've returned to the site. It seems to be a pretty rare thing, with friends or acquaintances writing fluff reviews or arrogant poets being critical with an attitude being more the norm. I will check out your changes. : )
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written lighthearted Halloween poem. For children it is all about the fun and the treats. The scary parts they find is a way to laugh about what happened later.

Comment from Dean Kuch
The contest's sponsor asked for a lighthearted Halloween poem and that's exactly what you gave them (and us).
Well rhymed with a theme geared towards having some spooky fun, this should do quite well in the contest.
Best of luck to you.

Yeah, I'm sure.
Instead it was I who wrote the review so I guess I will have to do for now, heh-heh.
You're welcome.

Beautiful as all rhyming poems are. This one about Halloween is absolutely a treasure. I'd love to share it with my students if you don't mind. The rhyming scheme and the rhythm of the poem are extremely pleasant.

It's more fun for me then the trick or treaters. I love Halloween, it's the best time. Thank you for such a nice review.
Comment from Kelly Hanna
What an easy and fun poem to have read! Very festive and spooky. I liked the flow and the length. The rhyming was excellent. You did a great job of putting me in the mood for Trick or Treat. The lines about the cauldrons brew were my favorite of the piece. Great work!

I love HALLOWEEN! I can think of nothing I could improve upon concerning your entry. I'm seventy-one and I still feel like a kid this time of year. I wish you much luck in this contest
