Question: I have Written a Poem About Childhood, can you please read and critique it!? I know it's steryotypical!.!.!.!?
It begins with them talking,

It ends in a fight

Tires screech by

Doors slam! shut very tight!.

Hold the pillow close

It's lonely inside

Mommy left for the night

And daddy is drinking again

The screaming has stopped

I'm still full of fright

She still isn't back

What'd I do wrong!?

Can't I do anything right!?

Tears roll down

My delicate face

It feels like forever:it's only one night

But There's still more to come

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
It's very good, but there are few parts to work on!. I actually like the part about doors shut very tight!. It really conveys a child's emotions locking up while house doors also slam!.

The part where Mommy left for the night and Daddy is drinking again gives a good picture of what is happening in the home, but it needs to rhyme better!. Try to fix that part of it to rhyme!.

I hope that this isn't happening to you!. If so, I am so very sorry!. Be strong and find someone to talk to at school about it!. Don't deal with this problem on your own!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
