Gorgeous. I didn't like the word naught, but the rhyme scheme was perfect. . .do you mind if I use it?
I swear, I feel like you know members of my family. This is how I feel about some of them. Kudos on taking an old cliche and working it around so effectively. :)

Oh so true.

hey, I really like this one, I can totally relate, when you're a kid you're parents tell you that and you believe it, but then you truly see and you start to question it. I loved that, beautifully written!

Intense emotion and furver. Excellent work! :o)

You know I never did by the whole "Stiks and Stones" thing this is a greeat way that you wrote this.

Liked the idea. Good piece

it seems a little forced, but i loved your last 4 lines

Stick and stones
May break my bones.
But your words
Hurt me even more.

and nice theme, though a little repetitive

I like this one better. It's a great poem! It's very true, and I can kinda relate to it. Great job.

im wow-ed. i love the idea behind it. i think you wrote every line perfectly. great rhythm, it just keeps moving and moving and moving. good ending too. good work.

hey, caught your review of my stuuf, so...
this is good, interesting, some rhyme, some not.
Feel free to try a penta-ku, just give me credit for the style plz.

You sure you are 14? You sound very mature indeed, while me here, 17 this year still dream of nothing but dreams... never consider myself grown up yet.

Nice. I remember thinking about that bitterly last year. I've realized that they'll get what's coming to them and I can enjoy it when it does. It's good.

ohh this is true. i like it alot. and thanks for all the reviews!

too true, cuts heal faster than cruel words. Nice poem!
(and thanks for reviewing my stuff!)

This is really good, don't want to repeat myself a lot, so I'll just say... can I have your talent?
