Hi Lisa, I can't thank you enough for the very kind words for my ABC poem. This was a lot of fun for my first time and I loved doing it. I do have to admit it was more of a challenge than I thought it would be though. LOL. And I am honored by your six stars. I thank you again, my dear friend.
Love, Debi

A fun and funny alliteration, abecederian poem all rolled into one delightful poem.
This is one rich grandmother to be sure.
Nicely done Debi

Comment from Ginda Simpson
Oh my gosh, Debi, you covered every letter of the alphabet in this delightful poem. It flows naturally, not at all forced to fit the pattern, which is a challenge, well met.

Comment from Kelly Louisa Balliu
Who is this amazing Grandmother? The poem gives us that nudge to remember and embrace what we all love(d) about our own grandmas. The only thing I might suggest is that 'vacation' may read better as 'vacations,' to fit in with the other examples (recreations, outings). It looks as if it was fun to write and that is so important. Kelly x

Hi Kelly, you must be new here. I welcome you. I hope we can be good friends.
But with much respect, I have to ask you if you watched his reviewing is done and read the suggested book on reviewing? Did you notice this poem was an abc poem, where every letter of the alphabet was used in order and I not only did it in two sentences, but I told a story that made sense?
Very hard to do!! Did you also know that giving a four star review erases a six? If you have been given fives, it's because it's the respectful thing to do if there are no major writing issues found.
I would be more than happy to assist you in any way I can, as I often greet newbies and offer help.
The score can be changed for this and others and then saved. You find where you wrote it and change then save again. Also if you give a four star, it has to come w an explanation of what you think they could do to improve it.
Like I said, I welcome you and hope we can be friends and am here if you have any questions. A couple of us do that to help cut down on questions to Tom. And thank you in advance for changing this score. Debi
Also, always look to see if a post you are reviewing is in a contest to see if the degree of difficulty is more so.

Hi Debbie. Many thanks for for letting me know about the star ratings (I had no idea). I did read a little about the review process and wondered why some of my reviews had not been given the 4 star rating that I had given, but now it seems a lot clearer in my mind, so I appreciate that. I am a newbie and I'm thinking that if it takes me as long to get used to the website as it does to get used to a new phone, then I might be confident somewhere around Christmas 😀 Here's hoping! I guess I felt I had to give advice about one aspect, as that's what I read in the guidelines, but to be honest, I find it quite hard to be critical about work I like? Thanks for being so understanding and I will enjoy reading more of your work :-) Kelly.
p.s. Now I will go back and adjust some of my star ratings!!
-
Thank you Kelly for taking my suggestions how they were intended. I was hoping they didn't come off as rude at all. Oh my, you should have seen me the first couple months, and I just about drove Tom batty with all my questions. LOL.. So that is why a couple of us help out where we can. So feel free anytime about anything to ask. I look forward to getting to know you better.

The abecederian (not alliteration as the contest is named)-is one of my favorite forms.
I'm plum out of sixes but you have done an excellent job creating a cohesive story...
Your presentation is polished as well.
I sense a winner here!

Since you are my only reviewer this morning, I would like to express my deep gratitude for your very kind observations and comments. Your virtual six stars mean every bit as much to me as the real ones. Thank you, thank you and thank you again, dear friend. Love, Debi

Really, Debi. I've read a ton of these and yours, (in my opinion) is far and away the best!
Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
This is really interesting. I have never seen anyone make a story using just the one alphabetical word in each line, and the story makes sense. That's pretty impressive.

This is a marvelous entry for the ABC contest! (Sorry, I don't know why they called it Alliteration.) Your entry makes great sense, and you worked in every letter of the alphabet in a fun way. Best wishes in the contest! Carol

Comment from Paul McFarland
I didn't give that one a try. You have used all the letters of the alphabet. You have done a really good job, and you should do quite well in the contest.

Comment from Heather Knight
Aha! This is pretty original. It's the first time I see a poem like this and I like the idea very much.
So one word per line and each line starting with one letter of the alphabet (all in order, of course).
Cute.
Thanks for sharing.

Yes, Heather, this is the kind of grandma I can see you being. Hehe! The kind we both would like to be if the funds were there, right??

It looks like a difficult poem to write. I don't think I'd have the courage to try. x
Comment from GWHARGIS
Lol. You got me with this one. I read it and thought it was a birthday poem. I start looking for an author by the name given (title). Then I checked back and saw this was a contest entry. Good luck in the contest. Awesome grandma, by the way. Gretchen
