It's been quite awhile since the antics of Wally Weasel have graced the poetry pages of FanStory, Yvonne.
It's good to know that he's doing fine and still the ornery, adventurous guy he's always been.
Good aabb rhyme scheme featured in all six of your rhyming quatrains and the rhymed couplet as well.
Great work, as usual!

    Thank you, Dean. I'm so glad you like it. I was afraid Wally was getting to be a little old to folks.

    Wally could never grow old, Yvonne.
    He's a great character for kids. :)

Oh goodness. What a sweet children's poem. I love that it is based on a dream/imagination. Kids need to explore that more these days. I loved Wally Weazel's "adventures." :) Great write and a joy to read.

I have to say this was a very well written poem for children! Didn't see anything about it which needed fixing up. Well worth the read and five stars. If I could of I would have given it six stars. Wish you the best of luck in the contest!

I was right there with Wally on his entire adventure. It sounded real enough, but a dream by a waterfall is much safer. haha
Wonderful imagery. I still see the bumble bees, bobble float and him parachuting in a orange jumpsuit.
Perfect rhyme.
Best of luck in the contest.

What a wonderful poem, I love the fact that this young one, even though he went nowhere he dreamt of things outside, not playing video games, I think this is an excellent, inspirational, and a 0learning read for the children, very well done and best wishes for your contest****kahpot

Haha, so very cute. This should totally be made into a picture book for children. Imagination is key to anything. What an inventive and rhythmic piece you've penned here. The rhyme is perfection, the image choice, and the entire piece felt cohesive and lighthearted...children will be able to relate to dreaming and imagining a life to live beyond their front door, LOL. Great job with this entry. It's presented flawlessly and straightforward. I found no errors. Good luck in the contest.

A child's imagination is a wonderful thing. I gave my five-year-old daughter and three-year-old son some colored pencils and paper and told them to use their imaginations and draw a picture. My daughter asked, "What's imagination?"

Her brother said, "That's when you're dreaming, but you're awake."

    Isn't that cute! So true. I worry about children these days. They don't seem to have any imagination. Thanks for reviewing.

Looks like Wally the weasel was having a good vacation. I like this poem, but I think you might make it interesting to enlighten the character more. Otherwise, it is a good poem.

    I'm sorry you think that. Actually, this is a chapter added to a book of Wally stories. He's pretty well known here on FS. I guess I expected everyone to know him. Thanks for reviewing.
