And lusting in the summer heat
Plagued by his constant begging
Ignorance at its best
Complying finally
Fearing he'd leave
All I have
Left is
Regret

Style: Nonet
A nonet has nine lines. The first line has nine syllables, the second line eight syllables, the third line seven syllables, etc... until line nine that finishes withone syllable. It can be on any subject and rhyming is optional.
(I did the syllable count for most of the words by how you say them so if the count seems a little off in some places thats probably why)

very good, the form should have been followed more strictly (couldnt catch all the syllable counts in rythhm or IC), but overall a very touching poem!
-
this is good but shouldn't there be a space between each other. I loved the write it was very touching.
-
It may be short...
Though it is short, it's still a very well written piece. Words chosen perfectly to describe how you were feeling. Keep it up.

this is a good write. Keep up the good work.

*cries* i like the poem, subject matter is moving tho.. i think it flows great and is fine, but i dont critque well, i just look at what people write about. nice work

This is good... but the last line has 2 syllables not one... and the fifth line has 6 syllables not 5... so that cost you a few points... but not bad at all. Here's your score:
Title: 9/10
Followed Form: 35/45 (syllable mistakes... no big)
Creativity: 17/20
Metaphor: 15/20 (could've been stronger)
Followed Rules: 5/5
Total: 76/100
Very nice job! Rock on! xoxo Meg -
In the first line, there should be a space between each and others. This is a nice summeer poem, it reminds me of my boyfriend and I. The summer that we never want to end and once they do it's like summer just started and then all the things we wish we did are just left undone. But nice write, keep it up. Oh and goodluck in life
