Review of Echo Okay  
Review by eyestar~*
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  
Rated: E | (5.0)
*Star**BalloonB*Welcome to WDC Midnight Angel! I am here with a review to celebrate you! *Delight*

*Heart* Wow. Your poem evokes a sadness somehow. I really like the way you express this "hollow" feeling. The repeated OK is so effective like an echo and using the word "haunted" bears that out.*Thumbsup* Onecan sense the way the poet may not have been ok but unwilling to open the mask. Brilliant.

*Fairy* The free style poem suits the content and emotion. Your weaving made its mark.

*Star*Thanks for sharing your vision and craft. Keep on writing from your heart! *Heart*

Welcome again to WDC and happy writing and reviewing!

Hi Jay! I found this wonderful poem on the Read and Review Page! *Delight* What a wonderful treasure to hold of your father! And to the tribute you are to him as a poet as well walking the walk.

*Shock2**Salute*It is amazing how he got main ideas of the old and new testament as well as the journey of the boy into this story poem complete with rhyme.
It is a challenge to do! I was not throw out of the read though the rhythm was not always even..more a free style that way..which suits the theme and content. It was quite moving how the boy grew up looking after his mom and tussled with his call. *Heart*

Thanks for sharing this vivid vision and creation. It must be rewarding to have this memento of your dad. Wonderful poem. *Starstruck*

Review of My Perfect Dream!

*Delight* HI Jaiam! Your fun little poem popped up on the Read and Review page and I got a kick out of the title. Don't we all have a perfect dream? So it was fun reading one of yours. *Delight*

What a delightful image of romance and love! I had to laugh at the second verse...as it would be cool if you woke to it! LOL

The free style of three line verses work for the content and it was fun to read. The rhyme scheme was consistent though the last line has a rather off rhyme. It did not throw me out of the read as it was entertaining and one can feel the excitement in the end.

I think you need a comma after "me" in verse one to connect with the last line of verse one.

Thanks for sharing your vision. I had fun! *Star* Keep on writing!

Review of Anxiety

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

*Delight*Wow! Your expression is a wonderful and I enjoyed the read. You really captured the experience in living language that was vivid and the tone and emotion was potent. *Thumbsup* The images were so real and the speaker's voice is consistent. What a day!

*Fairy* The free style verse suited the theme and content as it runs like a story. The addition of bits of rhyme and effective enjambments added to the flow as I read aloud. Good word choice shows use of repeated sounds as well. I was able to read it in a coherent manner even without punctuation..as I know punctation is a choice as long as it is consistent. I think not using it adds to the atmosphere of anxiety you produce. One feels relief at the end! *Smile*

*Star* Fabulous vision. Thanks for sharing your gift! Keep on Writing!*Smile*

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

*Quill* I was caught by the flowing title and the notion of poetry as movement.
Wow! Giving tribute to mentor poets is brilliant and the voice addressing them is consistent throughout the weaving. I enjoyed the free style with its free rhyme and word choice. the repeated words illustrate the cyclic pattern and help create your image of poetry in motion. Well done. *Thumbsup*

*Quill*The only line that threw me was the "I won't never rest". Do mean you won't ever rest? Otherwise I think it means I will not never rest? *Confused* and does the next line follow from it? I just got a bit confused there.

I found that particular font hard to read, but that is just me. LOL

Thanks for sharing your vision and gift. I had fun spinning with you! *Starstruck*

Keep on Writing!*Smile*

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


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

*Candleo* I liked the evocative title of this piece and it made me curious. I enjoy philosophical and wisdom themes. This short poem reveals your thoughts on what creates basis of friendships. It really gives me something to ponder on.

*Candleb* The three line free verse is simple and clear in tone and intent. Mutual trust can be value as well as trust that people will be who they are even if they make mistakes.*Smile*

*Candler* I did wonder about "onward path" and whether the word "common" goes with that as well. eg, does friendship require people going a similar direction. And it would seem reasonable that the path would be onward in anycase..rather than backward. I will ponder more. *Wink*

Thanks for sharing your vision and inspiration. *Fire*

*Fairy*Hi tucknits! Long time no see so here I am! I found this title and could not resist butter! Yum!! *Laugh*

What a simple and vivid expression! *Delight* I fell right into the vision with its appeal to the senses. I have heard of this Brevee form but never written one. Thanks for the note on it. "sixains" what a word!*Laugh*

*Fairy* Your composition is sound given the parameters! I like the rhymes and imagine that would be hard to do when you only have two syllables in some lines. You nailed it.

*Smile*It was pleasnt to read aloud with its short lines, fine rhyme and soundscape. Your use of assonance and consonance was effective. *Thumbsup* Lots of visual appeal and I can recall fresh bread from the oven and melted butter on it. We would come home off the bus on bread making day and yum!

This reminds me to of a kid's poem with it simple image and short lines. Wonderfully tastey!
Thanks for sharing your gift and vision. *Starstruck*

Review of Tomorrow's Child  
Review by eyestar~*
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  
Rated: E | (4.5)
*Delight*HI Percy! I found this wonderful expression on the Read and Review Page and had to stop and say WOW!

*Delight*I so enjoyed the eloquence of the language as I read it aloud. The quatrains were well composed. Its flow was pleasing with an effective balance in verse, rhythm and rhyme. The soundscape showed a fine use of assonance and consonance that gave the flow its elegance. I noticed the "l",
"r" and "s" as in "living Legacy" and "resume, rescue right from wrong" etc. *Smile*

*Fairy*The repeated words in your queries and indeed, the use of questions added drama and made me ponder as I entered into the philosophic theme. *Thumbsup*

*Fairy*I notice the syllables in each line are not always in a pattern..there are a few longer lines, yet I was not thrown out of the read. *Wink*

*Fairy*The theme of tomorrow's child is relevant and the choice of polarity is ever present.

*Fairy* The image in the first two verses drew me in as the description of this child is vivid and I felt sad if the dark will be the fate. I like the way you banter and compare the light with dark in the questions and I like to think there is a hopeful intent. Words like "nurture", "sunbeams" and "love" shine as positive images.

*Star*Thank you for sharing your craft and vision. I so enjoyed the experience. *Starstruck*

for entry "Old Barn Haiku
Review by eyestar~*
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  
Rated: E | (3.5)
*Treepine*Greetings! Thank you so much for entering the "Haiku Hunt Contest! *Delight* Here I am with my brief comments on your shining entry.

*Fairy* I was drawn into the quiet and gentle vibe of your weaving. The personification of dawn opening is evocative and lovely. I felt a sadness in the imagery of the old barn and no cows. *Delight*

*Fairy*I see you used the basic 5-7-5 haiku pattern of syllables and was surprised at your use of complete sentences rather than phrases, perhaps in trying to stick to the pattern. I am not sure adverbs like "softly" are haikuish as it is an interpretation by the writer as opposed to an observation of the fact. I was thrown off by "milk barn" when silent old barn would still give the image, and your reference to cows in the last line says to me that the barn might be for milking. I try not to repeat ideas in short poems.

*Fairy* The poem tells a story that one can see clearly. I did not feel a strong Aha though I loved the over all picture of the scene and the feeling it evoqued for me. *Thumbsup*

*Star*Thanks for sharing your vision and craft.

Good luck in the contest! *Shamrock*

*Balloony*Hiya Prosperous Snow! I am happy to review you for "I Write in 2018! *Delight*

*Mountains* Wow! This is a wonderfully appealing poem. I love the nature theme and it is amazing how you managed to use all of the prompt words coherently in your message.

*Paintbrush* The imagery of the environment is so vivid that it was easy to enter into the vision. The personification of some elements is brilliantly done. I really liked "light's brush, heavy with the colours of life" and "nature"s easel".*Thumbsup*

*Smile* The free verse suits the theme and content. The vocabulary of art words was effective as well and the idea of nature as artist and the created piece shines through. *Star* The gentle tone is appealing and it was pleasant soundscape to read aloud.

Thanks for sharing your gift and craft. Good luck at the contest! This rocks. *Starstruck*

*Balloony*Welcome to WDC Ella Wrenn ! *Delight* I am happy to review to celebrate you! *Bookopen*

*Delight* Wow! I enjoyed this unique expression in free verse poem. I like the philosophic bent of it. The image of the kiss is vivid and the soundscape of the language made it a pleasure to read aloud. The consonance of "s" and "c" assists with this effect. The idea of "dependency" is thoughtful as well. Good job. *Thumbsup*

*Smile* The opening image drew me in and the colour contrast in verse 2 is appealing. I like "crisp green" as evocative. I wonder about the ordinary word "beautiful" at the end. I think you could create something more potent to end the poem. Wonderful message.

*Star* Thanks for sharing your gift and craft.

*Balloony*Welcome to WDC Writer1 ! *Delight* I am happy to review to celebrate you! *Bookopen*

*Delight* I really enjoyed your expression with its heart-felt tone and the surprise at the end that you are speaking of "Mittens"...I assume it is a pet! or is it a pet name for someone as you cry on shoulders, and she had a "walk and talk". It is a moving story in any case, and you captured the picture vividly.

*PenB*I notice you have it posted as a poem and yet it is written in paragraph format, not like a poem though the feeling is potent. It is well written as a bio piece and easy to enter into your experience. I like the image of "cleaning out the heart" and the singing and the difficulty of the decision. *Thumbsup*

Thanks for sharing your gift and craft. *Starstruck*

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


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


*Delight* I so enjoy children's books and poems so I am having fun scoping your port! I could not resist this one as I can relate to not wanting to clean up..even now! LOL I always wished we had the magic of Poppins or Sam the witch to get things done! *Laugh*

This poem with its easy rhyme and flow was a delight to read and I got a sense of speed about the action. The child's voice inviting the help of the toys is clear and consistent as he commands an organized plan of action, which is revealed in a coherent manner with vivid images. *Thumbsup*

The verses were simple and the repeated lines added drama, emphasizing the importance of each action. The rhyme is awesome and the verses balanced. The last line is upbeat and we are left to imagine the mom's happy reaction. The word at the end shows relief and I can imagine the child, especially as all the toys would have to have been back in place too. *Shock*

I did not notice a defined syllable pattern/scheme and the pace and energy vibe of the speaker was evident. Wonderful! *Star*

I really enjoy your child heart. You did a great job with the prompt. *Delight*

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


*Earth**Delight* OH wow! This totally rocks! It sounds just like "the House that Jack Built" in its repetitive nature and would really be appealing to children and young at heart like me. It is so neat to use all the features to show where you live, expanding from the universe to the specific place on the planet. Great way to teach this idea as well. *Thumbsup*

*Sun*I enjoyed reading it aloud and could imagine illustrating it as a child's book. One could leave blanks in it for any child to insert specifics for himself. I could see using it as a template if a book came out. *Wink*

*Moon*The image of the "spiral arm" is appealing to me as it makes me think of being held and safe even in the expanse of space.

*Cloud* I was wondering if there should also be "commas" or semi-colons after the words "planets and stars, that's in the.." in each verse as the last line in each verse still refers back. Just a puzzlement. *Confused* I am not really sure how one punctuates when the thought gets longer.

Thanks for this entertaining creation that was fun to read and inspired me. *Starstruck*

*Delight*HI Tinker! I am happy to review your piece for "I Write in 2018! I have not written a Sedoka before though I have seen the form. Thanks for the bit of history in your author's note. It clarifies the idea behind the form. *Thumbsup*

Your poem is a model of the Sedoka with its correct format and counts. I like the parallel imagery on the beach (the tide and the walk, shells, and spot) the romantic suggestion that your weaving conveys. The seashore is a magical place and your description is so vivid that I could entry the vision quite easily.

It was pleasant to read aloud as your use of sound combinations is effective. I liked the prevalence of "s" and the "l" is the first verse. Nice use of the long "i" as well. The verb "litter" is perfect for the picture it creates of shells everywhere. The parallel of "marks" a spot and "right here" is effective too.*Star*

This was fun and well composed! Thanks for sharing your gift. I learn from you. *Starstruck*

Review of I Write In 2018  
for entry "Mindful Connections
Review by eyestar~*
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  
Rated: 13+ | (4.0)
*Smile*HI Carly! I am happy to review your piece in the I Write 2018! The title was intriguing and after the read I can so see how appropriate it is. I liked the play on "mindful" in the situation. It was really fun to read and imagine the reaction of the young lad! It is realistic to think he might have spoken aloud and you show well how he comes to realize what is going on.

I enjoyed the bit of mystery as we do not know what the lad is running from at first and it made me curious to read on! And like the character we do not know how the gentleman knows the situation, outside of reading minds and what his interest or motive might be for helping. It engaged me as I could ponder possibilities. Describing him with a sad nod of head may point to his having been in a similar situation. *Smile*

Usually one uses italics to show inner thoughts so I was a bit confused at first but caught on that the apostrophes were to show the unspoken words. *Wink* I see you used quite a few "Ly" adverbs and I think less is better in most circles now.

In "eyes twisted back to him to catch him" I think you could tighten it up by dropping "back to him". The twisting of eyes is an odd expression. *Smile* I don't think you need "Then" in "Then when".
I felt a punctuation was needed after 'uttered a word' *Wink*

This was an engaging flash piece in which you captured the characters vividly and kept me interested in discovering the whole story. I like that it ends on a hopeful note that the lad will take action and the elder's wisdom was useful.*Star*

Thanks for sharing your gift. I find these are a challenge to write. *Salute* Write on!

*Smile* Hi Tinker! I am happy to review your piece in "I Write 2018". The title appealed and intrigued me. I am not familiar with the painting but have done my share of digging up potatoes in baskets! *Laugh*

*Fairy* Your description is vivid and I could imagine the age of the basket and the contrast of the "sombre" painting to the brighter Sunflowers .(I have seen that picture) I really enjoyed the choice of words for the sound and flow as your use of repeated sound combos was pleasing to read aloud and the free style suit the artistic theme.

*Paintbrush* The middle verse brings me to see the artist/poet being inspired by the master's work --and the physical experience. It also changes it to the present tense where the first one is past with "hung".
It is interesting that the third verse adds the location and then returns to the personal "brush". I like the notion of "smudges my soul". Brilliant! *Thumbsup*

I wondered about the need for the word "and" in the first verse, though it does add a breath, and the use of two "ly" adverbs.(though they work well and I am not sure how else you would describe it) I just recall reading that direct description is more potent at times than adverbs. *Wink*

*Heart*I was moved by the piece and fell into the vision much like the poet may have gone into that artist's realm. Wonderful read. Thanks for sharing your gift. *Starstruck*

*Star* Hey ruwth! I am happy to review your item for 'I Write'! The title and theme appealed to me too as I love trees! *Delight* Your pictures are wonderful and the way you tell the tale of your search for the perfect shot is entertaining and I enjoyed the read. The twist at the end was sad and isn't that just the way? *Smile*

*Tree* I like the cows and the way you had him look at you. Lucky to get a shot with the sunlight! Cropping it into a circle added flair. I like how you wove memories of your father into the journey. His pride in the crazy tree is too cute!

*Tree2* I noticed a typo in " to possible write about." IT should be "possibly" and I wondered about ending a line with "about". *Wink* The tale was coherent and point of view consistent. Your feeling about parts of the journey is evident and one can tell you have an observant eye.

*Delight* HI Sabastian! Welcome to WDC! I was intrigued by the unique word in your title and enjoyed going to look it up! It really fits your poem.

*Fairy*I liked the contrast in your theme as it begins with the emptiness and seeming dark message and then shines with brighter song. My favourite lines are 7, 8, 9 as they are lovely images and lyrical to read aloud. I enjoyed the philosophical ideas and the personification was effective. The prophetic tone was appealing too. *Thumbsup*

The last three lines are part of a query so I wondered if you needed a question mark. *Wink*

*Fairy* Hi ridinghood! I am happy to review your piece in "I Write 2018"! What an interesting prompt. I like tarot cards too! *Smile*

The theme about body and motherhood has wisdom. The first line drew me in and the image of the older other still able to rock her daughter is beautiful and touched my heart. *Thumbsup* I enjoyed reading the weave aloud and engaging in its vibration of comforting strength. The references to Goddesses adds to the idea of the power we have as woman not matter the body type.

The line about "maybellined to be a queen" made me smile and the rhyme added to the read and flow!
Awesome! *Smile* The old fashioned "vibe" of the words really worked for me!

It was neat to see this free form style...as one does not often see epistles. Your rendition is well composed with a meaningful message from mother to daughter. It is relevant to pass on wisdom like this.

Thanks for sharing your vision and message so eloquently and vividly. *Starstruck* Lovely read.

The image of the feet on coffee table and the comparisons are brilliant and evocative. The preacher in the tent I could so see this "circus". The word "suspiciously" made me ponder too. *Thumbsup* The references to poets and the quote are well chosen and assist your message. Well done!

*Salute*Wow! This alliterative title was fascinating and I am glad you gave the definition of "Dis"as it seems there is another. I like that it is a mythical place and God *Star* as it made me curious and evoked a rather happy tone.

The poem was a pleasure to read aloud and the scene was vivid. I could imagine the dancing! The rhyme and non patterned rhythm was effective and made a bit of a lyrical soundscape for the dark theme. *Delight*

I thinked you could simplify and shorten one line by dropping "answered" and use "said". The enjambment where you repeat "place" is effective.

I had fun reading this romp in the moonlight. Thanks for sharing your poetic vision. *Starstruck*

*Flowery* Hi Maryann! I am so happy you popped into the Daily Poem and took up the difficult challenge. YOu did a brilliant job on not using the letter "a" in a sonnet. LOL The topic is unique and the tone is happy and light. IT was fun to imagine the picnic and goodies. I liked the rocking food song and the notion of food bringing folks together. *Delight*

I think "lot's" needs to be "lots" to show plural. Likely a typo. *Wink*

The format is well composed and has an emotional aspect! Good job! *Star* An no "a" s! *Shock2* Thanks for sharing your creativity.

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