Round and Round You Go! You Go! Make the wind that steady blows. Whoosh! Whoosh! Don't spin loose. I'm sitting here below. Yes, Yes! This breeze is best. Put up my feet, and take a rest. A crack above, Oh No! Oh No! One more crack, and down she goes. Ouch! Ouch! I've been knocked out! I think I've lost a tooth! No more breeze to blow and blow, the ceiling fan spun loose! dancing freely with the stars, |

Funny poem. Very much like Silverstien or Prelutsky. Have you considered including an illustration to this poem? Perhaps a child being shot off the page as they come loose from the fan? I think such an illustration would compliment this poem nicely. Disclaimer: The preceding statement is just my opinion. |

This is a nice post. I like the style a lot. My only suggestion is to perhaps use a consistent tense and make sure the wording in your explanatory lines read smoothly and without awkwardness. |
