This is only the opinion and suggestions of the reviewer and it is still up to the author of this piece to consider this review as a corrective action or otherwise. THE POEM A poem that tugs on the reader's heartstrings as it communicates the power of a simple touch. WHAT I LIKED I loved the uplifting message of the poem. There's something powerful about reaching out to other humans in a kind, compassionate way and this poem captures the essence of that gesture. STRUCTURE This is a three stanza poem comprised of quatrains. The 1st and 2nd lines along with the 3rd and 4th lines rythme. The poem is has a nice beat when read out loud. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. Good use of WDC ML to increase the font and make it easier to read on WDC. The poem is easy to read. DESCRIPTIONS I liked: "For the homeless on the street, who beg for change so they can eat," -- the words create an easy visual in the reader's imagination, but they also hint at an emotional description, one of hopeless, which sets up the inspiring message the rest of the poem delivers. PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS The title is an accurate fit for the poem, and the opening drawers the reader in. This an honest, candid, poem that ends on a note of hope. Well done.
