*Note1* My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines.


*Reading* THE POEM

A poem about the curse of Sleepy Hallow and a hint on how to break the curse.

*Idea* WHAT I LIKED

I enjoyed the visuals the poem conjured up in my mind. Very good job capturing a bit of a darkert one.

*Star* STRUCTURE

This is a free form poem. There's no rythme scheme.

*Star* MECHANICS

I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes.

*Star* DESCRIPTIONS

I liked: "Beware the spirits whose intentions mean ill, Travel always with lantern in hand, Or on saddle attached" This is a great visual. I pictured a man on horseback, late at night, with a chill (of spirits) following them. It evoked a shiver and speaks to apprehension and building tension well.

*Star* PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS

The opening intrigues the reader in and keeps them reading. The title is a goood fit for the poem and sets expectations. Nice word play. A spooky poem that's perfect for October!
