  • This is amazing! I loved To Kill A Mockingbird, it is one of my favorite books of all time. I loved the way you based the character so amazingly in this poem. I loved the way it flowed, and the detail, and everything. I don't have much criticism for this, it was absolutely beautiful. The grammar i and everything in spot-on, and it's just purely amazing. Great Job(:

  • This is really beautiful. I especially liked the part that says "Smile sadly, Sweet One. Hide away from the cruel world. Those who say that you've gone crazy;" This struck a nerve with me because countless time persons have tried to talk to me like I'm crazy and treat me like I'm crazy too. This poem is just too relatable and the grammar is 100% I can't really say anything bad about it. Good job c:

  • Wow. I really love this poem. I've never read To Kill a Mockingbird, but I hear I'll have to read it next year. I may read it before then, though. But, anyways, this was really beautiful. My favorite line was, [i]Why the whole town laughs about you, when you wouldn't even hurt a mouse.[/i] And, I think the quote you worked in, in the last stanza, worked so well right there. I just can't get over how fantastic this was. It makes me want to read the book.

  • This is just...fantastic...You embodied the character so well and I'm literally speechless. This was beautiful and it brought back so many memories of reading this in class and being the only one feeling bad for Boo. I adore this piece. It just says so much that was never really highlighted in the novel. you have a great ode to a great piece of literature here. :) Keep writing.
