    I've never been to Cali.. I've never even been out of Aussie. Yeah, But anyways. I liked this. This was my favorite part:
    "My California is
    sparkling Southern beaches
    to colder Northern bays;"
    I thought it sounded really pretty. =) And the rhyming you used seemed good too. Nothing in this I think I would change. 5/5

    True, you can't imagine a whole place without seeing it with your eyes. Great imagery and descriptions

    That great, I liked this poem. It brought me into your world, and I saw things from your perspective. It's a joy for the reader to imagine. Awesome stuff. Sounds like a beautiful place.

    You had some great imagery in this poem that made me see the California you know and love. I felt like this poem was good, but it didn't have a Great wow to it. I am trying to think of some advice that would make this poem say wow, but I can't think of any right now. I guess it seems like a surface poem and I am so used to reading the really really deep emotional poems. Perhaps it is just different than I am used to. The last stanza of this poem really brings it together. Nice job.
