Complementary: I like how you kept the tone of your voice consistent with the tone of the poem. I also like how you read it in a somewhat musical way to match some of the rhymes the poem has.

I thought that you accurately captured the rhythmic nature of the poem which made it more entertaining to listen to.  This emphasized the rhyme patterns and this enhanced the recital.

Your voice was very easy to understand and the poem went at a decent steady pace. Your emphasis on the rhymes make the poem more enjoyable to listen to. However, I think that you can change up the tempo on certain parts of your poem to further emphasize the more meaningful lines such as in the second to last stanza.

all six elements of reciting are there, however you could've ended on a stronger note. words that linger with us

this line could use more emphasis and can be more inquisitive.
