Hi Queen Elizabeth,
I think this is the 2nd or 3rd poem of yours I've reviewed! This poem, 'Raindrops on the Windowpanes of Life" is interesting. I've never thought of life in this way, rainbows on a windowpane, and I think you've got a good point, creatively written into descriptive word play. Yours is a poem that makes one think. It has me. I can't speak for others but yours is a good poem to sip my morning coffee and reflect. Thanks for sharing. tc and have an excellent day.
Hi V,
I really like your poem 'Life.' It's thought provoking and well written, creative and truthful. Life is amazingly mysterious and I'm a lifeaholic!
tc and have a nice day in the life.
Hi Fivesixer,
I like your poem,'Weightless.' There's a lot of imagery I see, reading the words, and pictures are painted before my eyes. I think that's what good writing is about. Not telling the reader what to think but painting pictures with the words and allowing the reader to decide for him\herself. i think 'Weighless' is a good poem about the wonders and the heartaches of love, second chances given or not given. tc and have a nice day.
Hi Tim,
You poem,'The Beacon Shining' is a good read. I like how the words you've chosen to use paint such a vivid picture of the beacon and the waters. Good job. Have a nice day.
Hi BeHereBook,
I like your poem, how the lines spell out "be here book" with every first letter. I read the poem clear through before I realized that! Creative. tc and have a nice day!
Hi Emily,
I like your poem, 'Quiet,' and I think it's a creative write with a heart around every word. I, too, was a teenager once and I felt exactly as your poem describes. It gets better with time though. All that old shyness faded away and I found out that I was OK. Not perfect but OK and OK is alright in my book. Thanks again and I hope you have a great day.
Hi Jace, Good quatrain poem and an interesting pledge. I've not heard of "quatrain poetry" before so I learned something new today. tc & have a nice day.
Hi Harry,
The last line of your poem, "Burying a Teenage Son' has me perplexed so I'm gonna have to read the entire poem again, see if I can't figure it out. That's the sign of a good writer though. I don't know if I "should" feel stupid now, for not understanding this poem or "smart" for thinking I might! tc & have a good day!
Hi Keaton,
I like your poem 'Refugee." It's sad, considering all the refugees being taken in here or there, how lost their eyes seem and how grateful their hearts are. So many people are down on helping the immigrants and refugee. My feelings are mixed. I think a lot of us in this world can relate to the refugee heart though, in one way or the other. You have creatively written words that, to me, explain some of those feelings perfectly. It's sad though. tc & have a nice day.
Good thoughts on love, Charlie. I like your poem. I agree about love being risky but I also think it's wise to follow our gut intuition. Maybe there's no such thing as past lives. I tend to think not. I think all of life's experience have already been known and that's it's an all knowing, omniscient power from above that puts people together in life. If that's the case, maybe it's why we feel we've known someone forever when we just met. I don't know but I like your poem!
Hope things go well with you and Julie.
Hi Rhyssa,
'What do you want to Play?' is a good poem. I liked reading your poem and the way your words took me back to my own childhood. It's nice to think back on those old sibling days of play and my mother, too, had a tissue at hand. Good poem of 18 lines. Thanks.
Hi Bentley,
'Will There Ever Be Another Rainbow" is a sad poem. I think there will be another rainbow. The rain of our lives needs it. The sun will come out. Anyway, I hope you find yours. Good poem. Thank you.
Good poem,Andie. I read it and thought of my beloved Grandma, how she used up and sing in her kitchen, cooking dinner. Her husband, my Grandpa, would sing too, though not as much and not as loud. Singing is good for the soul. Thanks for sharing your poem. Have a gr8 day.
Hi Kim,
i like your poem. It's sad though and I feel for the "son" you write about. I wonder why he's closing down and falling apart. The last line, I wonder, who or what breaks his heart. Most of all, I hope the "son" finds himself and the peace he needs to cope with his situation. Take care and have a good day.
Hi Fyn,
I like your poem and especially the line that reads, "the crayons are broken and rounded, too little to sharpen". I think that's a really great play on words, like, we're getting older and life isn't made for us to be perfect. I picture the "circle" being empty, as you wrote, coloring outside of it and it gets me to thinking. I'm not sure what you meant by it, exactly. I can only paint my own picture of what I see, which is the purpose behind reading and writing. A person's poems, like yours, can\could be interpreted in different ways. No two people think a like. I read about the circle being empty and see someone who is not happy with his\her life. It's positive that he\she thinks enough to draw outside of his unhappiness and look for brighter colors. Anyway, thanks for the poem and I apologize for rambling. Have a gr8 day.
hi Neva,
I read your short story, 'How I Sprouted Wings,' and like the word play. I keep thinking of Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz though. It's not a bad thing, really. What i mean to say is that, in my opinion, Opehlia didn't need Clyde to bring her a genie anymore then Dorothy needed to get to Oz. The wings and the glass slippers weren't necessary anymore then a one wish genie. I think Opehlia had it within herself to fly all along! Of course, YOU are the writer of 'How I Sprouted Wings,' and I am the reader. I like the story you have written. It made me think and reflect. I'm glad I'm not 'Ophelia' though. I'd hate to live in a country or situation where my parents decided who i would marry. Sorry for the long worded review. Have a gr8 day!
