Oh wow, this could be interpreted as quite a dark piece.

You have absolutely superb diction, which I adore seeing in use. Language is not utilised enough these days.

I think you have presented a really good concept in, that is concise, relatable, and something that I think a lot of people could unknowingly become enthralled in.

Good work, and keep it up.

Review of Silent Rain  Open in new Window.
Review by E Simony Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (4.0)
I really like this piece.

To comment on your short description, I think some of the most amazing poetic works have come out of dark and depressed feelings. So, good on you for choosing to utilise it and express yourself so well.

The piece flows quite well, with the effective repetition of "Drip. Drip" joining each stage of the persona's journey together to create a smooth and fluid story.
Your diction is good and is evident of deep emotional roots.

Overall, a pleasure to read.
Keep it up.

Review of Black  Open in new Window.

My, my, how I love this.

It is short, sweet, to the point and so successfully expresses the message in such few words. This can be rare to find and is a talent to be recognised when you do.

Nice work.
A beautiful expression of love's many complex layers of emotions.

Keep it up.

Review of Our Love  Open in new Window.

I like this piece of writing a lot.

You are good with your words, and the piece flows very nicely.

May I ask, I am young, what does "With you my heart has been love stormed" mean?

Anyway, I think you have done this well, and there is a lovely story to it.

Good work.
Keep it up.

Review of September Rain  Open in new Window.

This is a really nice piece of writing.

I appreciate the diction, and the stanzas have been set out well.
The story and meaning behind it is simply a pleasure to read about.
It is a little bit heavy, but not really lagging - which is good.

Good work.
Keep it up.

This is a great piece of writing.

Acrostic poems can often seem so forced, but this piece flows quite nicely with a good rhythm.

I think you have explored the thoughts and opinions surrounding new years' wishes quite well. You seem to be good with words. You are concise. It is good.

Keep up the work!
Would love to read more.

Review of Apropos  Open in new Window.
Review by E Simony Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (4.0)
A great little piece of writing, you have created here.
I thoroughly enjoyed being allowed into your past and current thoughts on your journey.

Just thought I would mention, I think the words "do's" and "don't's" don't actually need apostrophes. Sorry - I am a grammar natzi.
Otherwise though, your grammar seems impeccable. It is really nice to see a well punctuated and enjoyable piece.

Despite the fact that you have successfully told your story in few words, I think you have potential that should be explored in longer texts as well. I would love to read it!

Anywho... I really did enjoy reading this.

Keep it up.

Review of Morningtales  Open in new Window.
Review by E Simony Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (4.0)
Ooh. I like this a lot.

It is not the sort of topic you sort of read about. Which is surprising actually.

Anyway! I thought this piece had a good flow and rhythm to it.
Your stanzas are phrased well, and it was 'catchy' to read.

Just one thing - One of the lines, and I don't know if this was intended because I might just be reading it wrong, it says "Grant my thy boon" where I would of thought it would say "Grant me* thy boon." I could be wrong though, so if I am you can ignore it.

Anywho - keep it up!

Review of Ambience  Open in new Window.
Review by E Simony Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (4.0)
This piece almost gave me chills. In a good way, that is.

I really enjoyed reading this piece.

The beauty and simplicity of the stanzas both intrigues and enthrals me.

Personally, and this really is just a personal thing, I thought that the repetition of the word "when" was distracting from the importance of the emphasised beloved character. But I understand the difficulty to write four similar stanzas with varying words that mean the same thing, or start a similar story.

Otherwise, I think this is really well written, as did the judges of the October contest about inspiration. They obviously know their stuff.

I really enjoyed reading this though.
Thank you.

Take care and keep it up!

I really like this.

I think you can write really well, and you are good with words too!

With each line that I read, I found myself drawn deeper in until I was almost completely enthralled by it.

It is a great piece!

You have just worded a ... not common, but not rare feeling beautifully.

I really like this piece of exploration of the Islamic religion and its impact on the world today.

Your use of stanzas successfully allowed the reader to absorb the piece bit by bit, without disrupting the flow of it.

Good work!

Keep it up.
Take care.

Review by E Simony Author IconMail Icon

Hm... I really quite like this piece.

It is challenging to the reader, and you have successfully covered many relevant points to your topic.

I like the use of four line stanzas. It allows the reader to be drawn in bit by bit, just as I was from the first moment.

I really quite like it and will be looking out for more! Thank you for posting!
Keep it up!

I quite like this piece! C=

It is simple, and utilises repetition effectively, which is great.

At each line, I found myself wanting to know what might come next.

Despite what some people might say, I think this is quite a deep piece.
It conveys a certain sense of intellectuality that you should be proud of !

I look forward to reading more of your work!

Take care of yourself!
