If it were structured like a typical story, it'd be less out of place, but it just feels weird to me that it's structured like a poem. Theres no symmetry in the rhyme, meter, or syllables. It just doesn't feel like a poem to me.

With regard to the story, though, I really enjoy the concept. My biggest hitch is the idea that this child has been there before, but only now is it really sinking in. I would say that this should be the first time the child has been there. That's just me, though. Yeah, I think about halfway through writing this, I started to feel weird about it being a poem. Thanks for the push in the right direction.
