A fun, funny poem. Meter maintains consistancy throughout and rhymes are rock solid. A creative chronical in the day of an imagined pixie. The red neck ending is clever.

A very well-written poem about the mythical creature we know as a pixie. Very little people saw them, but when strange things happen like things falling out of your hands or your glasses are not exactly where you put it you can know there was a pixie around you.

This is a cute little poem, a fun read. Very interesting start to finish, and your character really came to life. I really enjoyed all the southern slang. Great job, good luck with your contest.

This poem, Dixie Pixie, presents a charming little spite with a penchant for playing tricks on others. Her eventual Red-neck handle might fit her well. ......

    well, her red neck is supposed to be because of the beet juice - however, you never know. She's been writin' country lyrics - lookin' for a song.
    Thanks for readin' and for your comments.

This poem speaks a story about a girl who is mischievous, she got a new name, and sometimes she commits mischief even open; well said, well done. Write to inspire, change -- DR ALCREATOR

This work has reached the exceptional level

This poem is adorable, and such a fun way to start my day. The southern dialect is so true (i.e., you sound just like my friend from Louisiana - although you did forget "Isn't that special?"), and used well to help create your characters. I enjoyed that both your main character and her father have personalities that come across in the lines you have them say, and that, without saying it in so many words, you've even established the close relationship between the father and daughter. That the daughter getting sprayed with beet juice was greeted by her father not with anger but with a head shake, a laugh and cute endearing nicknames speaks volumes. This is a very enjoyable read, and I wish you luck in the contest.

A bit of a nonsensical poem using rhymes that fit but don't make much sense, but then again this is a mythical creature so I expect this is all acceptable, good luck with the contest, love Dolly x
