Comment from Marilyn Hamilton
Brooks are one of my favorite things. So beautiful and relaxing. We have them all over here in Maine and I love finding them on hikes in the woods where not many people have managed to discover them. Your poem brings it to life with your vivid descriptions. Soon the ones here will be iced over but they are still beautiful and often the water will keep flowing through the winter. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you Marilyn for sharing your memories and for a lovely review
Comment from CM Pickard
I felt like I was sitting on a verandah and watching this as I read it. Rhyme is one of those things that people either like or they don't, when done well as you have here it adds to the poem rather than detract. Great work.

Excellent, I really like the way your words flow and follow one scene into the next, bringing all the beauty and dangers that critters and children may come across, though so peaceful we must always stay vigilant, very well written****kahpot

Comment from DonandVicki
It makes me wish that I lived near a brook. When I was young our home was near a creek and as young boys, we spent a lot of time in or near the Tousaint creek. Your poem took me back.

Thank you, DonandVicki for sharing your memories about the creek. I too lived near a creek and I too played there with my brother and sister.

A beautifully written post Pam, with distinctive rhyming and a well metered flow that help the narrative easily pretty well like a flowing stream of liquid words in the narrative, beautifully written my friend, blessings Roy

Comment from Cecilia A Heiskary
Pam,
What a wonderful poem. I love the way it rhymes and flows to completion of the story. The picture is an added bonus. You can almost here the brook bubbling as you are reading the story.
Great job

Thanks Brenda for a great review
Comment from Pam Lonsdale
Again, you are giving us a picture of not only the earth but all the creatures that it supports. I love the story of the dragonfly. Occasionally, our backyard is filled with dragonflies - perhaps hundreds of them at once. It is always when the mosquitos are thick.
I had no idea there was so much action around a babbling brook! I'll have to visit one real soon:-)
