I read your emotional poem "Poems of My Mind." I am doing a review for you. I am not a professional reviewer. I can give you feedback on how your poem has impacted me.
You gave an excellent description of poetry in your writing. I found it very interesting about the titles: "Safety of Books" and "Not Quite Right." I encourage you to write. Feel free to read any of my writings at any time.
I hope you are blessed with friendships, good health, good songs, love, and happiness. Let them follow you daily.
I read your article "Android 15 Update." I am not a professional reviewer. I can give feedback on how your article impacted me.
I appreciate the update on Android 15. It sounds like this is good to have. I have much to learn about computers, iPhones, androids, tablets, etc. I am 67 years old. Privacy is important and it's important to go public.
I encourage you to keep writing. What someone doesn't know can help others learn more about.
I hope you're blessed with friendships, good health, love, happiness, and music. Music helps me when I am feeling good and when I'm feeling down. Hearing songs from the past is great for lifting our moods.
I am reviewing your poem "PTSD." I am not a professional reviewer. I can give feedback on how your poem affected me.
Oh, wow! There is a lot of emotion in your poem about PTSD. PTSD happens when you've been in a war. I have been through three major traumas at the age of seventeen. Though I have never been in a war, I witnessed something I shouldn't have seen. I wondered if PTSD should've been my diagnosis. I think about checking into that sometime.
I encourage you to keep writing. It is traumatizing to be in love, especially not knowing how the other person feels about you. Your writing helped me in a lot of ways. I admire the courage it must have taken to write your story and to share it in public. Don't be scared; the more you write, the better you become.
I hope the best for you in every way. I hope you will have smiles lasting for a lifetime.
I just finished reading your story about yourself "MY FIRST WRITINGS." I am not a professional reviewer. I can give feedback on how your story has an impact on me.
It sounds like you're going to be entering high school this summer. I am 67 years old and would like you to know I have struggled through the same things as you have. It doesn't matter what age we are, we go through the same things.
Love is hard when we love someone who doesn't love us back. Sometimes, we often cry tears because we don't understand why they don't love us.
I don't judge people by their writings. I know it's especially hard when you're trying to learn English when you're from another country. I admire you for taking the step to give it your best effort. I encourage you to keep writing. The more you write, the better you will get.
I have had trouble with writing and I am an American. Don't give up. I have found out from being critiqued on my writing, I have many things to learn. It was easy to give up and quit, but I am determined to be a good writer and be able to self-publish my books.
I hope you have blessings of good health, friendships, love, and happiness.
I just finished reviewing your article "Business Automation." I am not a professional reviewer. I can give feedback on how your article made an impact on me.
I learned a lot by reading your article. It's nice to know there's an outlet where people can contact someone 24/7 when they have a problem with an assignment and need to find an answer to a question or have a resource to turn to when help is wanted for a mental health problem. Anytime there's a question to be answered, AI is there to answer them.
It's wonderful how automation can help someone anytime they need help.
I encourage you to keep going on with your writing. Your writing is very informative; it will help someone no matter what. I am a bit scared of AI. I heard other people are a bit afraid of it too. I have used AI a few times and have been very impressed with it.
Hello and Good morning to you!
I just finished reading your poem "Comforting Loneliness." I am not a professional reviewer. I can give feedback on how your poem impacted me.
There is something to be said about loneliness. A person can be surrounded by people and yet feel lonely. Being alone is not easy, however, a lot of people are alone. It's nice to have people to talk to, but sometimes can be exhausting. When you're the only one in a house or apartment, you can be free to do things without someone hanging over your back. This alone can make one feel lonely, even though you wish for someone to talk with.
I encourage you to keep writing; it's good to be able to write about how you feel. You can help others by sharing.
Yes, I can relate to being lonely.
I hope you can be surrounded by many blessings, good health, friendships, love, and happiness daily.
I just finished reading your story "Returning to Writing.Com." I am not a professional reviewer. I can give feedback on how your writing impacted me.
I am happy you returned to Writing.Com. I have discovered a family here. I love that you consider yourself a doctor even if you're not medical. I can imagine how hard it is to be a teacher and not be able to talk about certain things. Working with children who have disabilities is a wonderful thing. I am happy for you to complete a novel and have it self-published. I hope you will write more. I am hoping to get my books self-published if I can do that. I am confident I can do it, however, there is a little bit of doubt that sets in, but I am determined to do it. I have 250 writings on the Writing.Com website. I am happy I found the courage to go public with my stories. I believe I can help people deal with having a disability called mental illness; I have one as well. I have a schizoaffective disorder. Taking the medications Aripiprazole and Bupropion have been life savers for me. Taking the first one was like a miracle drug for me.
I hope you have many blessings of friendships, good health, love, and happiness to surround you daily. Again, welcome back to Writing.Com. I am happy you have a house now.
I just reviewed your emotional and personal writing "Suffocating Goodbyes." I am not a professional reviewer. I can give you feedback on how your writing has affected me.
Wow. I can feel your emotion of heaviness of trauma. I can relate since I have gone through traumas in my life. I have been told to let go of them since they happened years ago. The trouble is they seem to follow me throughout my life. I talk to the traumas saying I wish they didn't happen, yet, they did. I struggle with the severity they've had on me. I wish they (traumas) would go away, because like you say, they are suffocating. I feel like putting on a warm blanket over you so that you would feel better so I can go on with my life.
Because of medication, it helped me to cope better about it. The effects of the traumas come back, but I can cope with them better. Dealing with traumas is not easy but I do my best to live with them daily. I put on music to ease the pain they put on me. Try to do this, you may find you won't let them bother you as much.
I hope blessings of friendships, happiness, and love will follow you every day of your life.
I encourage you to keep writing. I feel that other people can benefit from reading your story.
Choosing one man over the other is difficult for a woman. The one who lost out on her love, because purple wasn't her favorite color, must have sparked some interest in her, otherwise, she wouldn't have kept thinking about him. She must have seen some good qualities in him that made him stick out in her mind. I wonder how he felt when she chose another man over him. The man liked the colors blue and red. These colors must have had a special meaning for her; the purple color was not an issue. Somehow, she was drawn to the other man, because he had chosen the color purple, therefore, she decided to go for the other guy.
Shocking herself back into reality was a good thing; she could focus on her one true love. It almost sounded like there was a bit of regret there. She knew she made the right decision to go for the guy who liked the colors blue and red.
Your story was interesting. I encourage you to write. I can believe that you have more stories to tell. Keep up the good work!
I hope you have blessings, friendships, and happiness in your life.
I hope I made sense in this review. I apologize for the confusion if it didn't come out like I wanted it to sound.
I just finished reading your article "Thoughts on a Complex Relationship." It will be my pleasure to do a review for you. Even though I am not a professional reviewer, my feedback on how your article has impacted me is something I can do.
It's sad when someone's family can't give the guidance a person needs to grow. It's wonderful how your family stepped in to give this person the support they need. By setting healthy boundaries, this individual can appreciate the depth and beauty of this unique relationship while ensuring it remains healthy and fulfilling as you stated in the last sentence of your article. Congratulations on that!
I encourage you to keep writing. I enjoyed reading your article. Keep up the great work.
I hope your day is filled with blessings of friendship, good health, and happiness, and continue to keep on going after that.
I just finished reading your poem "Enchantment." I will give you a review. Even though I am not a professional reviewer, I can tell you how much your poem has impacted me.
The first two stanzas and the last one are as follows:
I went to look at the moon on a summer even
When winds blew softly over the ripened wheat,
Only to look at its unattainable beauty.
But the moon came down from the sky and lay at my feet.
All my being suffused with unspeakable wonder,
I held it there in my hand; its golden rays
Filled the night with a tender ineffable glory,
A thing to remember and cherish for countless days.
This is the place to be paid throughout years of living,
When dark clouds lower over a weary land:
Never to weep for a moment of lost enchantment
When I held the moon like a golden ball in my hand.Th
I could feel the emotion that went behind your poem. It sounds like you put a lot of thought into putting it down on paper. I liked the part you wrote:
Nover to weep for a moment of lost enchantment
When I held the moon like a golden ball in my hand.
It's amazing to me, how you could hold the moon like a golden ball in your hand. I probably wouldn't have thought about that.
I encourage you to keep writing. Your poem was beautifully written. I am glad that you dared to share your poem.
I hope that your life will be filled with blessings of friendships, good health, and happiness.
I just finished reading your poem "8..." I will give you a review today. Although I am not a professional reviewer, I can give feedback on how your poem had an impact on me.
The part of your poem I found to be interesting is as follows:
So, when you next feel the surge of a cool breeze against your cheek,
Thank Her... not only for your being but for Hers
For Mother Nature is everywhere, everyone, everything.
She is the formidable tree you climbed and conquered at just 8 years old
She is the briny blue ocean that practically swallowed you whole as you learned of Her crude warnings
She is the juicy, sweet, crisp apple you bite into; the apple your last baby tooth finds itself stuck, separated from the mouth She gave you in hopes that you would tell Her story...
This is so true. I remember an old commercial on television that said, "It's not nice to fool Mother Nature." Mother Nature is a force not to be reckoned with. She can be kind or unkind. She has the power to cause the weather to be destructive. It's best to be on her better side.
I encourage you to write. You give a nice, detailed description of what she is like. I enjoyed reading your poem.
I hope that my review has helped in some way. I hope you have countless blessings of friendships, good health, and much happiness.
I just finished reading your poem Mother Nature "Untitled (love)". You deserve a review and I will do one for you. Even though I am not a professional reviewer, the feedback on how your poem left an impact on me is something I can do for you.
Your expression about nature in your poem was well done. I could feel the emotion behind it. It sounds like a lot of thought went into writing it. I encourage you to write. The first two stanzas are as follows:
The sweet, billowing breeze rushes to greet my nose.
My eyes flutter closed as I absorb the energy whirling me.
Raindrops beat on my forehead as Mother Nature kisses the top of my head.
I stand, unwavering in the face of the storm.
A smile stretches across my face.
I know I remain divinely protected.
I need nobody else,
For I have Mother Nature standing at my side.
I love how it flows so brilliantly.
I encourage you to keep writing. Writing is good therapy; it helps me feel better by getting my thoughts down on paper. Coming out into the open takes courage and I'm glad you have taken the first step by sharing your poem. I enjoyed reading it.
I hope you have many friendships, good health, and happiness. These are blessings everyone should have.
Have a great day! I hope my review has helped you. I pointed out some capitalizations and periods in your poem. I put them in when I wrote the two stanzas.
I just finished reading your essay "An Unforgettable Nightmare." You deserve to get a review and I am giving you one. I am not a professional reviewer. I can give feedback on how your essay had impacted me after I read it.
I agree with your essay. The corona virus was an unforgettable nightmare. There were a lot of people who lost their lives through this ugly disease. To my knowledge, I haven't heard of anyone losing their life due to the corona virus in my family. I wish I could bring those people back. This was such a tragedy.
I wish more attention was paid to getting rid of this disease. I heard there is a new strain of it going around named flirt. I hope this time it can be kept under control (nip it in the bud) before it gets out of hand.
I encourage to keep writing. You were descriptive in how it came about. It took courage to share your essay and I am glad you did.
I hope you are in good health, blessed by friends, and happiness.
I just finished reading your short story fantasy "I Can't Believe You're Mine." Your story is worth a review and I will gladly give you one. Although I am not a professional reviewer, I will provide feedback on how your story impacted me.
I enjoyed reading your story. It was a cute love story. They couldn't keep their eyes off each other; they were very much in love. When she asked 'Who do you like?, the response was I like you because you're gorgeous, sweet, and funny. These are admirable traits to have. She dropped her coffee after she was told that she was liked.
I encourage you to keep writing. It was an enjoyable read and other people should enjoy it also.
I hope your upcoming days will be filled with many blessings of friendship, good health, and happiness. I hope the review I provided was helpful. Feel free to read any of my writings when you have the time.
I liked the second sentence, "We'd just left the coffee shop. When we walked by, she giggled and pulled me aside saying, "C'mon, let's be basic white girls and get some pumpkin spice!"
I just finished reading your poem "Erase." I will gladly do a review for you. It helps a writer to become a better writer from the feedback. I am not a professional reviewer, however, I can give you feedback on how your poem has affected me.
It is hard when someone has to move on and start over. I'm in a relationship now that I'm trying to figure out. I fell in love with him and now he wants to leave the area. He said we can be snowbirds like we discussed, but, I have this feeling inside of me that feels -that once he leaves, I won't see him again.
Love can hurt sometimes. When the other person in the relationship doesn't want to talk to you, you know something is up, like they want to move on.
I want to encourage you to write. I can feel the emotion in your poem; it hit me hard by the words you expressed. I wrote a poem "Cold-hearted" that puts a lot of emotion out there.
I just finished reading "The Pie, The Pie, and Oh That Smell!". It is such a delight to do a review for you on this children's book. I am not a professional reviewer, I do, however, give feedback on how a story has impacted me.
Your book sounds exciting to me! It talks about a child's valuable lessons while sparking joy and imagination. From what you wrote, this book takes a child on many adventures. It sounds like a good book that I would like to read.
I encourage you to write. I have a creative imagination and hope to get everything together to self-publish some books. This is a dream of mine to do this. I have a lot of material together; I don't know how to get a manuscript together.
Feel free to read any of my writings when you have the time.
I just finished reading your short story "Dream and Challenge." I am going to give you a review. I believe that reviews are important because they help us improve our writing. I am not a professional reviewer but when given feedback on how your story has impacted me, it could be helpful for you.
I am delighted with your short story. I love the inspiration behind it. It shows how a person can achieve their dreams when they don't give up. Even though his parents didn't feel that he didn't make the right decision regarding his career, in the end, they saw how much he enjoyed his profession and couldn't help but come around. Persistence pays off on what one needs to do to accomplish their dreams. Don't let anyone deter you from your dreams.
I encourage you to keep writing. I was impressed and inspired by your short story. I'm sure others would get a confidence booster after reading your story.
I hope you will find my review enlightening. Good friendships, health, and happiness are the things I envision for you always.
I just finished reading your poem "I Can Smell The Rain." I am going to give you a review. I am not a professional reviewer. I am giving you feedback on how your poem has impacted me.
I enjoyed reading your poem. It was beautifully written. I could feel the emotion and the rhythm. I felt great after reading it. I have been battling with allergies for about five weeks now. I was informed that if we could get some rain here, the tree pollen would clear itself up; and the pollen count would be less. I should get some relief if that were to happen. I sure hope that they're right.
I want to encourage you to keep writing. Your attention to detail felt like you put a lot of work into writing it.
I hope miracles of healing, friendships, and happiness surround you.
I just finished reading fiction story "The Abandoned Mansion." I am going to do a review for you. Reviews are important for a writer; they help you to become a better writer. I am not a professional reviewer, but my feedback can be helpful to you. I will tell you how much your story impacted me.
Your story terrifies me because it talks about an arachnid. I am afraid of spiders; they give me a chill.
The last paragraph of your story is as follows:
Suddenly, the room plunged into darkness. Panic gripped me, and I fumbled for my flashlight. With a click, the beam revealed an unsettling -- a massive arachnid perched on the mirror's edge. All I saw was its spidery long legs, reaching out like twisted branches. Paralyzed, I watched in horror as it scuttled towards me, weaving shadows into a sinister dance. The whisper returned, revealing the mansion's secret: a spectral arachnid guardian, ancient and hungry for trespassers.
I would definitely get out of harm's way when it comes to being faced with an arachnid. They give me the creeps. One time when I was doing dishes, I saw a spider in the sink. I began talking to the spider. I said, "I am going to leave the room now, and when I come back, I expect you to be gone. When I came back, it was gone. I was certainly relieved after that.
I encourage you to keep writing. This was a good horror story. I hope my review was helpful to you.
I hope your day comes with many friendships, good health, and happiness.
I finished reading your story of fiction "Keeper of Forgotten Tales." After I finished reading it, getting a nice review would be a nice thing to do. I am not a professional reviewer. I can offer feedback on how your story impacted me. Getting reviews are important; they help you to become a better writer.
I enjoyed the whole story. The following lines were interesting:
"I seek understanding," I finally replied, "of the realms unseen, the stories untold. I wish to grasp the essence of existence and unravel the mysteries that elude mortal comprehension."
A special smile played across his lips, revealing teeth like ivory needles. "Understanding is a precarious pursuit, for the more one seeks, the more entangled they become in the cosmic dance. But fear not, for in your quest, you may find truths that transcend the boundaries of mortal understanding."
With that, the man released my hand, and his eyes, like portals to a forgotten era, closed once more. The wind carried his whispering words, bidding me to continue my journey into the unknown.
As I left the shadowy enclave beneath the colossal oak tree, I couldn't shake the feeling that I had brushed against something ancient and profound - something that lingered at the edges of perception, waiting for those daring enough to peer beyond the veil.
I have a few minor corrections for you. The line that starts With that, should read as follows:
With that, the man released my hand, and his eyes were like portals to a forgotten era, closed once more. I hope the above correction will help you.
I encourage you to write. I wanted to know more.
I hope your days are filled with blessings of many friendships, good health, and happiness.
I just finished reading your opinion story "ELECTION IN INDIA 2024." After reading it, I wanted to give you a review. I am not a professional reviewer. I can offer you feedback on how your story impacted me.
Your story was very detailed and well-written. Thank You for giving an update on how the election process works in India; it was a good history lesson for me. Thank you for your opinion.
I want to encourage you to write. Your story was well-written. I learned something today.
I hope your day is blessed with friendships, good health, and happiness.
I just finished reading your poem entitled, "Tingling Thoughts." I am giving you a gift by doing a review for you. I am not a professional reviewer but getting reviews, in my opinion, from another writer is important. I learn from my reviews; they help me to become a better writer. I can give you feedback on how your poem impacted me.
This was a short poem. You stated in your poem that sugar was a tingling sweet thing. Oh, the joys of having a rush of sugar enter your veins. Having cookies, cake, and ice cream is known for that, yet we continue to absorb them in our bodies. You explained things well. I encourage you to keep writing. Others will benefit from this information.
I hope you will have blessings of friendship, good health, and happiness.
I have done a review of your article entitled, "The Great Unknown." I am not a professional reviewer but sharing how your article has impacted me may be helpful.
I enjoyed reading your article. I agree with you. Teaching the next generation about respect wouldn't be a bad thing for them to learn. I am 67 years old and was taught about having respect for older people. Older people have more wisdom due to the experiences they've gone through. It scares me that the youth of today are instilling violence. This makes me very sad. I am an optimist; even though things look bad right now, I believe, with all my heart, we can turn it around for the better.
I am not a professional reviewer but I do my best to inform you how much your poetry has impacted me. Reviews are important to me as a writer because it helps me to become a better writer.
I finished your poem entitled, "Love for Poetry." What I liked most about your poem was the part that said at the beginning:
I was only the poet
But I too wanted to be a poem.
All these words that I use
I too wanted to be arranged like them.
Just the simple words
To make sentences so beautiful
I wonder how would I be
if I were to become a poem too.
I also like the following:
My poems only contained the words
But that's not only what I wanted to write
With each word I wrote
I wish to write emotions as well alongside.
It's not only me but the whole world
That admires the beauty of poetry
Though everyone feels the same
Only a poet writes it down beautifully.
It's just not the beauty alone
But emotions that we feel as well
Maybe,
I wanted others to feel what I felt
Everytime I wrote down a poem.
There are a few minor corrections I would like to point out:
The second stanza should read: I wonder how I would be rather than I wonder how would I be.
In the fifth stanza, a comma should be added after: With each word I wrote, rather than omitting it. In the line below that should be: I wish to write emotions as well along the side rather than I wish to write emotions as well alongside.
In the last stanza, on the last line should read: Every time I wrote down a poem rather than Everytime I wrote down a poem.
The whole poem was beautiful. I encourage you to do more writing. I hope that making the few minor corrections didn't deter you away from any writing. I only wanted to help you.
I hope you will have many friendships, good health, and happiness.
