At first I thought that this application was taking forever to load. After I had touched the iPad screen purple words began to pop-up. Once I had finished tapping the screen the poem loads and appears line by line moving from left to right. There are various letter sizes ranging from smallest, medium and Large. These sizes appear in no specific order. Another feature is that the oldest lines fade as they scroll across the screen. This application provides a great reading experience however there is no creative element since the user is not making anything new.
