*Note1* My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines.

*Reading* THE POEM
A stirring poem centered around a solider placing flags on graves.

*Idea* WHAT I LIKED

The pictures are very stirring and compliment the poem well. I appreciated a little of background and history and how the author was inspired to take pen to paper.

*Star* STRUCTURE

This a free form poem. There is an AABB rythme scheme.

*Star* MECHANICS

I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. The poem is heartfelt to read and has a nice flow when read out loud.

*Star* DESCRIPTIONS

I liked: "He pauses a moment in front of a grave, I cried when I saw the salute he gave." The verse captures a framed moment in time, that contemplation which concludes with a gratitude and thankfulness that stirs in one's heart. It's easy visualize and evokes emotion well.

*Star* PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS

There's a reverent, respectful tone to the poem which shines through; an appreciation that has been cultivated and is sincere. Clean expression that tugs on the heartstrings. The title is representative of the poem.
