    I like the rhythm a lot, except the last line seems a little out of place because it's so long. Maybe you meant it that way, to make it stand ...

    Although Brad's comment was funny (and I'll have to remember it for use at some point in my life) I have to disagree with him. Simplest thought for a seemingly ...

    Everyone else has already commented on the mechanics, so I'm going to totally ignore that and say just what I feel from the words themselves, though in retyping I might ...

    I like how you chose to personify the fountain. I think the poem would flow better and hold people's attention better without so many sound effects put in though. A ...
