I absolutely loved this poem! It was one of those deep but simple things, like melodies you hear every single day, and yet they manage to strike you just as forcefully every single time. It was -- as AEChronicle put it -- whimsical. And I've found that a drop of whimsy always succeeds in adding to the originality of things in this already unoriginal stream of thoughts we weave. Since there's not much for me to review, I'll just skim through some of the stuff I saw and let this be an encouraging cookie review. How about it?
So, I think you could improve this bit right here:
She flew out in the snow
and so she screamed
"I want to catch a cold!"
Wielding her gleaming net,
Her butterfly-catching
Scheming net,
OK, so since you've used "and so she screamed" here, the reader excepts a reason leading up to why she screamed. Also, when you use the word "net" twice, it just gives this feeling that you're trying to emphasize on something, but you're not entirely succeeding. I'd suggest you replace the second "net" with something else.You could play with the words here, bring in a few changes... maybe tweak the sentence structure...
And it would be something like this:She flew out into the snow
and screamed in ecstasy
"I want to catch a cold!"
Wielding her gleaming mesh.
Her butterfly-catching
Scheming net,
But this is just me making a suggestion here. You can play with the words just as it suits you! After all, everyone has their own unique way of writing!
Overall, I really enjoyed reading this! Keep it up! Keep writing!
