  2. I like the line that said "We've been watching you all along." It's very poetic.
    Also, there is a lot of asking in the poem, it adds variety to the poem. Great work!

  3. I like how you used the flowers' perspective for this poem and used a certain tone that created a suitable theme.

  4. Hai :) you did really well by writing the poem in a way that shows the hollyhocks are constantly influencing Bill's actions and thoughts. The meaning of the poem is really clear. Good job!

    W.S :D

  5. Awesome Angeni! I like the tone and mood you've created. I think lots of people who wrote the poem in the perspective of the hollyhocks, including me, portrayed them as the "evil voices" that influnced Bill's actions and thoughts. And I agree with Winny that you've done a great job in portraying the theme. Well done!!
