*CakeB* HAPPY WDC ACCOUNT ANNIVERSARY FROM "Anniversary Reviews*CakeP*



*Balloonp* Happy Party Time Espero! I am happy to do a review to celebrate you! *Delight*


*Balloonr*WOW! This story poem is absolutely enchanting. I loved reading it and look forward to reading it to some kids I know. I enjoy fantasy themes and the little deer on his mission is endearing. The surprise twist at the end was an unexpected, rather comical event! *Salute*

*Balloonp* The tale was easy to read and follow in a coherent way with its consistent rhyme and vivid descriptions. The dialogue was so effective and enhanced the drama and emotional sense of the story line, giving life to the characters and lending some speed to the read. I couldn't wait to see what would happen. The names are fanciful and I like the choice of fox as an ally!*Laugh*

*Balloonp* The pictures add colour and reality to the tale, nice breaks between scenes. I am not sure why some lines are detached from their verses and some are two line verses or four lines. may have something to do with adding pictures etc. I know spacing can be an issue. It does not detract from my read and enjoyment as I was entranced by the imaginative creativity.

*Starstruck* A fabulous piece of writing, and not easy to keep an epic going in rhyme. I am inspired and impressed! Way to go, word wizard! *Salute*

Light on the path as you write on!

*CakeB* HAPPY WDC ACCOUNT ANNIVERSARY FROM "Anniversary Reviews*CakeP*



*Balloonp* Happy Party Time Timothy! I am happy to do a review to celebrate you, fellow Power reviewer! *Delight*


*Balloonp* What a sweet title that reveals your theme, fitting your short expression. I could imagine the scene in the simple words that portray the poet in his element.
I liked the idea of thinking of love on a spring day as it suggests new beginnings and hopeful dreams.

*Balloonr* The short four line poem has a lovely flow with clear rhyme. I enjoy the sing song effect when I read it aloud. The repeated word in the short phrases in the first three lines really works. You lead us into a relaxed state and then bring us to the mind pondering. Very effective.

*Balloonp*Some use of repeated sounds like "b" and "s" works to create a pleasing sound scape as I read aloud as well. Good job!

*Star*Thanks for sharing your vision and craft! I enjoyed entering that world.

*CakeB* HAPPY WDC ACCOUNT ANNIVERSARY FROM "Anniversary Reviews*CakeP*


*Balloonp*Happy Party Time Soh! I am happy to do a review to celebrate you! *Delight*


*Balloonr* I was drawn to the delightful title that had me pondering all the little things we could derive pleasure from...that children do so easily! *Heart*

*Balloongo* It is a delight to read this short episode which showed well the magic of children. The theme of the "eyelash" was cute and I even recall that bit of magic though had not heard of it in a long while! I liked the absolute faith and potency of Mia in commanding the situation! By the way, you spell Maya in two ways in the story. *Wink*

*Balloonr* The dialogue was effective to reveal the story and emotional sense. Watch the use of too many "ly" adjectives. Not sure what you would use instead and they did not throw me out of the vision. The first paragraph "suddenly" is not really needed because we feel the sense of immediacy already with Mia's excited tone. And what would "eagerly" look like as Mia waited? *Wink*
In the second paragraph, instead of "and" you could use "as she.."

*Laugh* The wish at the end was so... perfect! It fit with a child's desires.

*Star* I had fun entering into this lovely vision. Thanks for sharing the pleasure of the child's world. And Happy Anniversary! *Cake*

*Balloonp* Welcome to WDC just in time for WDC 18th Anniversary! I am happy to do a review to celebrate you! *Delight*


*Balloonp*Your title intrigued me, so good choice! *Wink*

*Balloong*Your free style poem was captivating too. I enjoyed the language and vivid images you created along with its message. I laughed at the last line. *Smile* The personification of vegetables and the content is unique.

*Star* I am not sure of the Pi significator in the poem but the creation had a potent feel and point of view to it! Interesting and something for me to ponder. *Thumbsup* Thanks for sharing your unique vision.

*Delight* Happy party days Genipher! I am happy to review your item from "I Write 2018"! *Fairy*

*Balloon**Cake*What a hilarious stunt played by your main character! I like how you portray her as really innocent and believing in the event and her audacity as asking for Mb's, a place to stay etc! I laughed aloud at her paying with cake and the part about the beardand not looking eighteen! *slaugh* The character is well shown..so curious, exciteable, distracted by everything
and straightforward in speaking!

*Cakeb* It was fun to read the dialogue only story and it was easy to follow along with the speakers. Including real names of WDC authors and how they were involved was perfect in relaying the story and making it possible for us to think that she really thought it would be a real party.*Thumbsup*

*Cake* I appreciate the creativity especially the magic cake, and the sci fi time element! The explanation of how they were to be unfindable and how she did it was so cool! *Thumbsup* You brought in quite a few elements, themes of WDC life.

*Star* Thanks for sharing your vision, which was entertaining and delightful to read. Clear voices, energy and interaction that was coherent. I could just imagine it! Write on!!
Good luck in the contest too! *Shamrock*

*Balloonp*Hey Amay! Happy Party days! I am happy to do a review to celebrate you as it popped up on the Random Reads today! *Delight*


*Cake* What an alluring title that made me curious. I thought of skunks right away but the term can be used for many things. LOL I see you chose a totally perfect theme and yep, the thought makes me want to hold my nose. Good one!

*Balloonp* I have not heard of an Aquarian poem so thanks for the note about it. You did a great job and the topic suits the form especially with its vivid expression of emotion. *Shock2*

Wonderfully vivid, I could totally imagine the sight and smell and the reaction of the poet in these short line verses that take us from the beginning to the end of the episode. *Thumbsup* One can tell this is an experience you are familiar with and many moms and dads will laugh! Even the explitives and words the poet says are true to life. Punctuation was used to advantage here as well.

I had to laugh at the third line in the last verse...as you leave us hanging and I can just imagine. Not again or false alarm. Tricky baby! *Laugh*

*Star*I had such fun entering into your vision. Thanks for sharing your craft! Keep on writing and have fun at the party this week!

*Balloonp* Welcome to WDC Misty James, just in time for teh 18th Birthday Bash! Check out the Party Central Tab on the left! *Wink* I am happy to do a review to celebrate you! *Delight*


*Balloonp*I was drawn to to the title as I have friends who are avid gardners and back home we had a huge garden for vegetables. It is an activity of love and persistence and so relevant as a theme!

*Balloonp* Your short paragraph is easy to follow as you detail the process of gardening from start to finish is a summative fashion. I liked the beginning line with its information and the indtroduction of a true gardner in the next line. I would like to have seen perhaps more detail and yet you have given the total picture.

The only little glitch for me was changing the voice, pronoun. You begin with third person in the first two lines. Then say WE and then YOU. The first and second "You" work but where you say "what you have sown" should be "what we have sown" in keeping the the "we" who are the gardeners. and the you is the reader who can come pick. *Wink**Smile* For the same reason "your heart" should be "our" heart as it is "we" who are gardening.

I enjoyed the vision of the bountiful harvest at the end of the work! It takes me back home to when we, as kids, all had tasks to do in the garden and harvest...but wow, great eats!!*Laugh*

*Star*Thanks for sharing your vision and craft at WDC! Keep on writing and reviewing too.

*Balloonp* Welcome to WDC Maria just in time for our 18th Anniversary Bash! I am happy to do a review to celebrate you! *Delight*


*Balloonp* I was drawn to the title as it had a question mark and made me curious and prompted me to engage in the question myself. *Smile* I really felt the vibe here and thought that it does sometimes happen that when we compare to others, we come up short! *Think*

I liked the short free style, that suit the content of a reflective nature. Addressing the notion of how to be happy when someone else is..especially if one is the one left behind in a break up, is a relevant theme.

IT was easy to follow the message and punctuation asssited the read. The only confusing part were the first words in the first two lines. I wanted to change 'Is" to "It's" for proper grammar.

Evocative ending as I could hear the sigh! *Thumbsup*

Thanks for sharing your little thought and getting your flair out here in WDC! *Starstruck*

*Balloonp* Hiya ruwth! I am happy to do a review for you in "I Write 2018"! *Delight*


*Salute* Wow! How incredible! I am inspired by you learning Spanish this way! I love the language and did learn it in school a long while back...but not fluent! I studied the bible in Ancient greek and a bit of it in Hebrew in University during my Classical History days. Quite a long time ago and hardly useful. LOL

*Camera*The photo is beautiful and I like the flower laid on the page. The backstory is inspiring and so authentic in voice and tone. I enjoy how you reveal your journey with the language and could relate to the "reliance" on the translation! LOL Yep, our mind knows better and wants to be lazy.
*Laugh*

It is so entertaining to think of you river rafting. I have done that too. Whew!*Delight*
How you came by the flower is memorable too. Cool that you still have it!

*Smile* The narrative was easy to follow and interesting to read. You drew me into the story.
Thanks for sharing your remarkable experiences. *Heart*

Light on the path as you write on!

*Balloonp* Welcome to WDC Peterc just in time for WDC 18th Anniversary! I am happy to do a review to celebrate you! *Delight*


*Delight*Wow! I love the philosophical tone of this piece of free style poetry. The theme is evocative and I enjoyed how you weave through interesting thoughts to the conclusion, reflected in the title. I like the idea. *Smile*

*Balloonb* I noticed a typo "universl" missing an "a". *Wink* I like the imagery of the "ring of the universal bell". *Thumbsup*

*Balloonr* The voice of the universal "we" is consistent and the use of query and pondering works well. It was easy to follow the flow coherently. I was a bit distracted by the ALL CAPITALS, which is not a usual useage.

*Balloongo*You need a comma after we in "AS WE, THE SMALL THINGS". The use of bits of inner punctuation helped with the read. I wondered about the noun "things" here. You use it quite a bit...was is meant to be non specific and to indicate our smallness compared to the vast universe? *Think*

*Star*Thanks for sharing your thoughtful reflective poem and allowing me to comment. Keep on writing and enjoy the party this week. *Partyhato*

*Balloonp* Welcome to WDC just in time for WDC 18th Birthday Bash! I am happy to do a review to celebrate you! *Delight*


*Balloong* Wow! This is an awesome collection of verses and as it would be hard to comment on them all, this will be a more general review. *Smile*
I enjoyed reading your variety of poems, some free verse and some rhyme, some sad, others uplifting. The tone was evocative and your voice rang authenically! *Thumbsup* I liked the combination of themes where you wane philopsophic, idealistic and where you follow your mind as it weaves through discovery, joy and pain. Even the last one ends on a hopeful note.

The first deep poem engaged me and drew me to read on! Well done!

*Balloong* You could take a couple of the longer ones and put them into their own items...for reviewers. *Wink* Yet I know space in basic membership is limited. *Wink* Keep writing and get reviewing! *Smile*

*Star*Thank you for sharing your heartfelt creations. It is so cool to write the feelings and thoughts of the day..like working out what ever needs to be released. I appreciate the vision.

*Balloonv* Welcome to WDC just in time for our 18th Anniversary Party Bash! *Delight* I like your handle. *Choco*

*Balloong*Your title was intriguing and evocative that I had to read on! Good choice. I am more a poet and the title made me look! LOL

*Balloongo* Wow! This is so creepy! You grabbed my attention from the first line with the active imagery and I like how you slowly reveal what is going on. It was an unexpected twist when the butcher came in and the horror intensified. The last line was a brilliant ending... you kept the rationale to the end.

*Balloony* Your description was detailed with vivid images and the first person voice was effective and consistent through out. I noticed you repeated "I could tell" close together. I wonder if there is an alterative way to say it the second time...eg. I could see... as you are looking at shadows. *Wink*
Also I am not sure about this but should "was" be "were" in " now was the cats"?

*Starstruck* This was a horrific vision! You might like the contest "SCREAMS!!!! Thanks for sharing your work at WDC! *Salute* Have fun at the festivies.

*Balloong*What a fabulous idea for an in and out and a brilliant way to get WDC some kudos out in the wide world. I am not sure I saw this before, or if I did, forgot to come back. Shame on me! *Smile* The survey part is so accessible.

*Balloonb* The links to the outside sources are helpful to the intent of this article too. I have not checked them out yet but I love the idea of nominating!

*Balloonv*The article is clearly written and organized with bold and colour fonts to emphasize and draw our eye to content. The tone is invitational and engaging. I think this will get a plug today! *Wink*

*Balloonp*Ahoy Maryann! I am happy to review your delightful monorhyme! *Delight*

*Delight* I love rhyming poems and this was fun to read with its unique three line verses and its joyful vibration! *Star* The images are endearing and I was intrigued what you might write about a crocodile. *Laugh*

*Cake2* Your notions of the "old hat" and the "map" made me laugh. That map idea was brilliant too. I was drawn in by the question in the first line as it made me ponder too... it leads nicely to the theme of so many things to choose from.

*Cupcakev* I did wonder at the second line, unclear about what the brilliant writings are brilliant at? *Confused* I also wonder who "another" is, in verse two.

*Star* The monorhyme form is intact and it tripped merrily along in a celebratory manner with a positive tone. I especially appreciate the "no combat" as it reflects the comraderie of WDC. *Heart*

*Starstruck* Thanks for sharing your vision in this 18th year of WDC. I am so glad you jumped in with your special flair! See you in the next round. Get your party dress on! *Heel* Keep the quill moving!

*Balloonp*Ahoy! I am happy to review your wonderful poem in the "I Write in 2018! *Delight*

*Partyhatr*Wow! I loved the image of the doves the notion of comforting in the passing season. Brilliant and moving! *Salute*

*Candler* The free verse suits the theme and nuance of the piece and your use of consonance and assonance was very effective. It was a pleasure to read aloud. I loved the moanful sound of the "o" in the first verse showing the sorrow. The "s" and "e" sounds create a coherent effect as well. mm. "weeping children" is lovely too. The weave was well thought out and evocative. I could really enter into the vision here. *Star*

*Cake* Thanks for sharing your gift and enjoy the 18th Party Bash as you write on!

*Delight*Hello again Ridinghood! I am so happy to review your wonderful piece from "I Write in 2018! *Heart* I like how you give references to tarot cards too. *Cool*


*Fairy* The title is evocative and I like how the last line reflects the title with the topic "rapture in line one. Opposites! Well done.

*Fairy*Reading your weave aloud was a pleasure as your use of rhyme, assonance and consonance was very effective. I especially liked the numerous "s" sounds. You created a soundscape of interest and the unexpected. Line 2 and 3 are my favourites. "lie among roses and cosmos"! What an evocative idea! Lines 4 and 5 really reflect a heavier image of weight in the soundscape and flow as well. Delightful to fall into your images. You are a word wizard! *Starstruck*

*Fairy3*I really felt for the poet at the end accepting her fate. The notion of last refrain had me hearing its lonesome echo. Wonderful!

Thanks for sharing your gift and vision. *Heart* Keep on musing with your pen!

*Smile*Hi ruwth! I am happy to review you in the "I Write in 2018" activity! *Delight*

Wow! What a delightful theme for your photograph contest! I love feet and we all have such unique ones. The black and white picture is stunning and so real. I appreciate your being out there sharing your feet and the trials they have been through! *Thumbsup*

Your commentary is honest and engaged me especially in the evocative question at the end. I always enjoy something to ponder. Our feet carry us on this Earth walk and a symbol in many faiths!

I like how your feet wanted to have their own way no matter what the doctors said! Might as well be different. I bet kids would love the idea of finding the foot prints to discover who left them. *Laugh* Mystery feet. I don't think I have actually seen the word "bunionectomies" before. *Shock*

Your title evokes a vivid image, speaking to your earth walk as you keep climbing to the heights, maybe stumbling but never giving up! Well conceived and engaging as a notion to think about. The whites of the imprint of sandles look like mountains too. Cool! Thanks for this vision! Now let's go shower some love on our feet. *Flipflops3*

*Delight*Hi Prosperous Snow! I am happy to review your poem in the 'I Write in 2018' contest! You are sure flying!

I enjoyed how you responded to the prompt with the idea that each week provides an opportunity for beginnings, tieing in the gratitude and day of reflection. Some do not take that time to just be with all that is. A lovely reminder in your message.

The imagery of the dawn, first day of the week and setting a new goal all focus our attention on the theme. Well done. In a few lines as given by the prompt as well you drew me into this personal experience. The atmosphere of the quiet was vivid too. The idea of "inhale" and "whisper" add to this vision. *Thumbsup* I like the unique rhyme of the two words balancing in the two verses.

I was wondering about the idea of "day of beauty" signifying Sunday as each day has that capacity. I wonder if there was a more meaningful describer, but it is just a thought. LOL

Thanks for sharing this calming moment which inspires me. I like to think that we who take time to meditate add peace to the world especially when all focussed together. Thanks for sharing you! *Starstruck*

*Moon* The title of the work is evocative and really suit the picture with its theme..edge of road, edge of poverty, edge of nature vs man etc. Your response to the prompt was brilliant and moving as I could feel the intensity of the meeting of the two women.

*Sun* The unique images and words like "ghost particles" and "blazars of edgework" are thought provoking and vivid.
I appreciate the scientific with the personal! *Starstruck* Wonderful free style with clear image and potent message.

*BalloonR**ConfettiP*HI Jay! I am here with a review to celebrate you! *Star*

Wow! A poem in 24 syllables Great job! I missed this prompt and I love the colour blue! *Smile*

I so enjoyed the content of your expression and especially the last line. I felt the sense of freedom. The image of the sky and birds on the wing was perfect one to inspire the idea of freedom too. Watching birds gliding in the blue yonder comes to mind. Gulls over water are a favourite as I used to live near a park by a bay and would watch them soar. *Laugh*

This poem captures the flavour of Azure in a vivid picture that was easy to enter. Thanks for sharing your vision. *Starstruck*

The title gives a definite theme and your Paythya Vat has a powerful vibe. I was engaged by the first alliterative line which had a strong voice, almost a command. The imagery is so clear as well. The notion of protective robes is evocative.

It was pleasant to read aloud with effective soundscape and flow. I liked how your last line gave the vibe of a slower pace to indicate safety. Brilliant! *Star*

The only thing I noted was that in the form line 2 and 3 should rhyme. I liked the assonance of your two end words here though. I imagine it is difficult to get this imagery into the form.

I have never heard of the person you tribute ... and wow! Potent voices all round! Thanks for sharing your vision and craft. *Heart*

*Balloonp* Welcome to WDC Luna! So happy you have posted your gifts here! *Thumbsup*


I was engaged by the simple title as it made me think of country fields and had me curious as to what particular field you would take me to. *Smile*

Your images are vivid with active verbs like "squelches", "stride" and "trudge" ! *Thumbsup* I could imagine it! You did an effective job of contrasting the beauty of flowers and the rot and thorns part of the journey in the field. Reminds me of life's ups and downs and hidden stresses. I liked the idea that tredding too heavily reveals the danger.
I wondered at your repeating the same idea twice in the last 3 lines. *Think* Yet the last two lines seem to reveal a message to sum up. *Thumbsup*

The free style of poem suits your theme and content. I wondered if there was a more descriptive word than "overwhelming". I will dream! *Wink* I wanted to tweak the line with try for more potency: like "As I look closer, I discover the source: Thorns and nettles..." *Wink* Just an idea.

Thanks for sharing your vision, into which I enjoyed entering! I love nature and how it evokes our muses to ponder life! Keep on writing! *Starstruck*

*Balloong* Welcome Cy to WDC!

*Delight* Wow! I was drawn to your curious title as it gave me something to ponder: mortality as an art! Cool. *Cool*

What a brilliant and original concept you create at the end.! *Starstruck*

The voice of the speaker is clear and has a comforting yet practical tone as he explains the situation. I like the idea of speaking to the deceased. Kind of creepy yet it felt like the speaker knew the guy would be keen to know, perhaps he was a scientist of some sort when he was alive.

A few glitches I noticed:
I wondered about this part of line three "and for that I am heartfully sorry". as you already said you were sorry in the first part of the line.
In paragraph 9 you need a comma or revision at "and not with us" as the first line is only a phrase..and needs to connect to something.
The long line after "eulogy of sorts" is confusing and could be tightened up a bit for clarity. *Wink*

*Delight* I really liked the name for graveyards as if is unexpected and fits with your title and theme. Thanks for sharing your genius vision! Keep on writing!

*CakeB* HAPPY WDC ACCOUNT ANNIVERSARY FROM "Anniversary Reviews*CakeP*


*BalloonR**ConfettiP*HI fivesixer! How great this popped up on the Read and Review Page today! *Delight* *Star*

Your title is evocative and encapsules your message. Unique thought! *Thumbsup* I like the theme of music connecting people and the symbol of "My noise".

The free style had its own flow and I only got stuck abit with the fifth line when yoyu seemed to change voice. First you are talking to the "YOU" as in "lose your heart to." and then the next lines seem factual with "it hums..." I was expecting maybe "Let it hum...etc. and "will be a part of you".. as you are asking the you to carry it as an imperative. After "without" the flow was coherent.
It might just be me misinterpretting.... or grammar nut! LOL

You have a vivid imagery and I enjoyed reading lines like alliterative "wicked, whimpering shell" and words like "ripples" and "clamour" are active and even "spun backwards" fit the musical theme. *Thumbsup*

Thanks for sharing your original voice and vision as usual. Very engaging. *starstuck*

Light on the path as you write on!!*Star*

*Star**BalloonB*Welcome to WDC MysteryBox42! I am here with a review to celebrate you! *Delight*

*Delight*This was fun to read and I like your imagination about how King got himself to ride a bike. Brilliant! You did a good job keeping the intensity of a flash piece and the twist at the end was effective. *Laugh*

*Burstr*You engaged by attention from the first lines where you set up the mystery. The horror aspect was vivid and your description was detailed. I smiled at the comparison to the Challenger and the sound without the baseball cards. *Thumbsup*

*Smile* There should be a comma after "darkness" I think before "darkness". The adverb "crazily" does not really describe so I can see what it looks like. *Wink* A rule of thumb is to use less adverbs and more vivid ones.

I was really entertained by your story, well composed, exciting and easy to follow. *Starstruck* Thanks for sharing your vision and craft!

Keep on Writing!*Smile*
