I enjoyed your poem very much.
Your ending: What can prayers do to you and to me?
Miracles happen---be blessed, be comforted,be healed,
Be forgiven, be delivered, and be saved---
With the touch of God in our prayers.

Ha, ha, ha! This is funny. I enjoyed the story as much as the rhyme. I'm glad the pig survived the ordeal of losing weight. It sounds like it was an interesting journey. The poem should go into a children's book, in my opinion.

Your poem tells me it's time to walk away and find a better love but your confusion and uncertainty keep you from doing so. Will he become a more caring man? I think not. He lives to control.
I found no errors in your grammar or punctuation.

I've seen that commercial. You have used it well as a writing prompt. Great Work! I enjoyed your story very much. It was told in logica order and carried me along.
I feel that you could combine some thoughts and cut out some unnecessary words. For example, in your first paragraph,
Mr. Edwards paced in front of his phone. He wasn’t a very patient man, but now he found himself waiting for the call that would decide what happened in his life. It would tell him if he has a job or not. The phone rang just as his wife told him to sit down and eat his dinner. “Mr. Edwards,” said a man with a raspy voice. “We have a small problem with the job that you wanted. We have narrowed it down to you and one other person. We would like you to come down for a second interview.” 100 words
Mr. Edwards paced in front of his phone. (An impatient) man, he found himself waiting for the call that would decide what happened in his life. It would tell him if he has a job or not. The phone rang just as his wife told him to sit down and eat his dinner. “Mr. Edwards,” said a man with a raspy voice. “We have narrowed (our decision) down to you and one other person. We would like you to come down for a second interview.” 85 words
Cutting unnecessary words is something an publisher will look for in a piece presented for publishing.
I didn't notice any errors in spelling or punctuation.

I enjoyed your well-told story within a story. I was drawn in as I read and could feel the tension, sorrow and regret within your words.
I was a little thrown off at the transition from the scene in the hospital to the memories of the dying man, but I recovered and was drawn into the story. I felt the transition from the memories of the dying man back to the hospital room was smoother.

A SilverQuill WDC Power Review. This review of niki's, story, See Me was requested.
I am not a professional copy editor. These are my opinions as a writer, reader and lover of words.
I see you and I care!
I enjoyed and identify with your short work.
Sometimes our best beginnings are hidden inside our work. I think your second sentence fits that bill. Then, if you combine your thoughts and cut out unnecessary words, you will uncover a very good story. I've used part of your first paragraph as an example of my meaning.
they say that our eyes our the window to our soul. . everyday people pass me by and i think "oh how lucky you are, no pain in your soul, not nightmares to fear, when was the last time you really cried?"……
Pay attention to capital letters in the beginnings of sentences and wrong words (our instead of are), examples of my meaning.
I think you have potential and I urge you to continue to write.
Thank you for sharing this piece. I look forward to reading more of your work.

A SilverQuill WDC Power Review. This review of Roxi Flash's story, Happy Birthday Katty, was requested.
I am not a professional copy editor. These are my opinions as a writer, reader and lover of words.
It sounds like your parents got creative in giving your party. I enjoyed reading about it. There were no mechanical errors or misspellings or punctiation errors that jumped out at me. However, your piece does tend to be a bit wordy.
If you combine some thoughts and take out unnecessary words, your piece will flow better for your reader. I've taken your first paragraph as an example of my meaning. I cut your word count from 62 to 39 words without changing your meaning.
My parents planned the craziest birthday party ever. Everyone, even the dog was forced to wear a party hat and the guests were the most nerdy people in the world because my parents thought they were a "good influence".
Thank you for sharing your story. I look forward to reading more of your work in the future.
