I hope the following comments will be useful but please remember not to edit your poem until the contest has been judged and awarded.

This is an emotional, and seemingly personal poem about the emptiness that follows the end of a close relationship. I can relate to the feelings expressed here as I'm sure many other readers will.

The theme of lost love is very common in poetry and for a poem to stand out it needs to have an original take on the subject. Unfortunately your poem is a little cliched and doesn't really say anything new. Also some of your phrasing is rather awkward and feels a little forced to fit the rhyme ('to memories I will cling' for instance, rather than the more natural 'I will cling to memories').

On the whole your use of rhyme works well but the first two lines of your final stanza don't rhyme which breaks the pattern and throws the reader off somewhat.

The pacing and rhythm of the poem are inconsistent. Reading the poem aloud should help you hear where the poem doesn't flow so well.

I like your insight at the end of the poem about the importance of loving yourself.

Overall this has potential but needs some work to make it flow smoothly, and to get it to stand out from the crowd.

Keep writing!

Best wishes,
Mark

This long poem is a delightful satire, poking gentle fun at big money poetry contests. As well as the humour (which made me chuckle) this poem shows a lot of intelligence and skill.

You display a wide knowledge of classic poets from the past here, and for any reader who loves literature there are a lot of treasures to be discovered within your poem.

The poem is well-structured and you use a number of poetic devices to great effect, particularly rhyme, alliteration and assonance. Despite the poem's length you maintain a fast pace and wonderful rhythm throughout.

This would make a great performance piece as your words really trip off the tongue when the poem is read aloud.

This has a very polished and professional feel, and you should be really proud of what you have achieved with this poem.

This was a real pleasure to read and earns every one of the 5 stars I'm giving it.

Write on!

Best wishes,
Mark

I hope the following comments will be useful but please remember not to edit your poem until the contest has been judged and awarded.

I really like the subject matter of this poem. Many times listening to a busker in the street has lifted my spirits.

I found the rythm a bit bumpy in places, especially in your first stanza where you use mid-line full-stops (periods)in three successive lines. I think this stanza would flow much better as one sentence rather than four. You can simply remove the full-stop in the second line as your first two sentences flow together very naturally. Then I would suggest shortening the pause in the third line by changing the full-stop to a semi-colon. In the last line of the stanza you could replace the full-stop with the word 'to'.

I also found your penultimate line a little unwieldy due to length. I would suggest tightening this up by changing 'you are the Beethoven. You are the Beatles' to 'you are the Beethoven, the Beatles,'. I think that comma after 'Beatles' is important to fit better with your final line.

In your second stanza you use 'alright' which is a common error. The correct spelling is 'all right'.

I love your phrase 'street corner symphony'. That has a nice ring to it. You also use aliteration well in your first two stanzas.

Over all I really enjoyed reading this.

Keep writing.

Best wishes,
Mark

This is a delightful nature poem with some lovely imagery. By writing of the dreams of the blossom you have found an original and creative angle for looking at a familiar subject. I love that spark of originality in this poem.

Your words flow well and I think your choice of rhyme words are great. Thanks for providing a definition for 'berceuse' at the end of the poem as I imagine this word would be unfamiliar to many readers. It was to me!

The only thing that jarred a little for me was 'myriad insects and bees'. The phrasing of this is a little clumsy as it reads as if bees aren't insects. You may wish to revisit this line but otherwise I have no suggestions for editing.

I very much enjoyed reading your entry.

Keep writing.

I hope the following comments will be useful but please remember not to edit your poem until the contest has been judged and awarded.

This is a very interesting poem about a mind deteriorating as a result of Alzheimer's.

Your first stanza is striking and really sucked me into the poem. I love the image of 'crayon colored panes'. I love how you use colour in this stanza and the whole poem is quite visual.

I think 'bloody crimson with childbirth' is possibly too strong an image for an E rated poem and would suggest a change to ASR.

You make good use of aliteration, assonance and subtle rhyme especially in the first half of the poem. There are some phrases which really jump out. For instance, I love 'cluttered shattered mind' though it could possibly use a comma after 'cluttered'.

For me the rhythm falters a bit in the last couple of stanzas and you may wish to look at tightening up this section.

This was a great read, thanks for sharing.

Best wishes,
Mark

This is a lovely poem on the fleeting nature of youth and beauty. I really like your use of the life-cycle of a rose to ecxplore this subject.

I also like the structure of the poem which flows very well despite the occasional weakness in your rhymes ('glow/now' isn't an exact rhyme for instance).

You have some nice imagery. I especially like the lines about the pollen clouds.

At the moment this is rated 18+ but I think you could get away with a 13+ rating.

Youth and beauty are both subjects which have often been written about in poetry but the way you've constructed this poem gives these themes a fresh feel.

Best wishes,

This is a very well-written poem about how we can be our own worst enemies. This is a subject I can really relate to. I'm sure many other readers could as well.

You keep a fairly consistent number of syllables in your lines and this helps create a strong rhythm for much of the poem. However, the flow of the poem is interrupted where your pattern of rhyming couplets breaks down. At the end of your first stanza 'atop/naught' doesn't rhyme, neither does 'dream/sea' in your final stanza.

In your penultimate stanza the comma after hesitate isn't grammatically correct and creates an unnatural pause when the poem is read aloud.

These points aside, you have a very good poem here and have chosen a great subject to write about. You have some great turns of phrase. I particularly like the last two lines of your second stanza and the way they sound.

Keep writing.

Best wishes,
Mark

This is a very powerful poem about someone walking through a town ravished by famine and then witnessing a shooting spree.

Your descriptions are fantastic and really draw the reader in. I found this a very visual poem but it's written to evoke all the senses. It is also very polished and flows beautifully.

I can't think of any way to improve this poem. An excellent piece of work.

This is a lovely, inspirational poem that should bring comfort to anyone who feels like a nobody.

I really like the wordplay in this poem, especially in the last stanza. Your last line is wonderful -- a great ending!

I found the rhythm a little bit bumpy in places and your use of rhyme is a little erratic (especially in your 7th and 8th couplets which don't rhyme at all).

In your first line 'befriend' should be 'befriended' as you're writing in the past tense.

This poem has great potential but some careful editing could improve it.

This is a lovely, moving poem, honouring a past love. You have some nice phrases here. I particularly like the bit about your hand fitting perfectly in his.

I did spot a couple of errors:

'you shoulder' should be 'your shoulder'

and

'Time and distance has seperated us' should be 'have seperated'.

The rhythm in this poem is rather uneven due to the variety in your line lengths. A little editing to even these up would help the flow of the poem.

I enjoyed reading this. Thanks for sharing.

I hope the following comments will be useful but please remember not to edit your poem until the contest has been judged and awarded.

This is an incredibly powerful, moving poem about the damaging effect an abusive mother slowly destroying herself with drugs and alcohol has on her child.

I really like the rawness of your writing, the stream-of-consciousness style. It makes the poem very immediate and emotional.

For free-verse this flows pretty well overall.

There are a few errors throughout the poem (eg. 'lent' instead of leant or leaned, 'too' instead of to). I also found your use of a lowercase i throughout rather distracting and would suggest following convention and capitalising your i's when referring to oneself.

If this is a poem about you then I really admire your courage for writing and sharing it, and I hope you have found some help and healing in the time since you wrote it and are now doing better. If this isn't about you then you display an admirable amount of empathy.

Many thanks for sharing this.

I hope the following comments will be useful but please remember not to edit your poem until the contest has been judged and awarded.

This is a powerful poem on the important subject of a soldier's sacrifice.

Your use of rhyme and short lines helps create a good, steady rhythm throughout most of the poem.

There is one line where I feel this rhythm breaks down:

'His assailant is deceased'

This is just a little long and I think it would work better without the word 'is'.

There is also one use of a half-rhyme that jars a bit ('race/fate'). This weakens the flow of this section in my opinion.

I think the poem could use some more punctuation to help the reader know when to pause when reading the poem.

You may also wish to consider breaking the poem up into stanzas (perhaps with four lines each as this would work well with your use of rhyme).

This is very good writing that just needs a little more editing.

Thanks for sharing.

Mark

I hope the following comments will be useful but please remember not to edit your poem until the contest has been judged and awarded.

By writing of the sacrifice of a single soldier you make a powerful statement about the cost paid by all those who currently serve in the armed forces and those who have served in the past.

The repetition in this poem works quite well. You abandon your rhyme scheme towards the end of the poem and this weakens the flow and rhythm of the poem in my opinion.

Apart from this you have written well on an important subject.

I particularly like your repetition of 'safe' with its two different meanings. That was cleverly done.

This is a beautiful, moving poem recollecting childhood. The Sestina is a complex and demanding form and overall you use it very well here.

You've made good choices for your repeating words.

I did find the rhythm of the poem rather uneven and I think this is mostly due to the variation in your line length. If you wanted to work on this poem more I think it would be worth looking at the possibility of shortening some of your longer lines to help with the flow of the poem.

Apart from this I think this is very well written and the last part about the death of your grandmother is very touching.

I notice you have this listed under 'other'. I think several genres would be suitable for this poem, including (but not necessarily limited to) family, personal, experience and death.

Thanks for sharing this poem. Congratulations on getting second place in the Quotation Inspiration contest.

This is a very powerful, very moving memorial to your son. I found this deeply touching, and beautifully written.

It takes a great deal of skill and talent to be able to write on such a personal subject and convey such strong emotion in a form as complex and restricting as the Sestina (a form I haven't been brave enough to try yet).

You've chosen your repeating words really well.

I really love the envoi of this poem and it's good to see you ending on a positive, hopeful note.

I have no suggestions for improvements as I think this poem is perfect just as it is. It deserves all the five stars I'm giving it and you should be very proud of this poem.

I think anyone who has lost a loved one will find great comfort in the closing words of this poem.

This is a beautifully descriptive short poem. I particularly like the image of 'drips of colour' staining 'sherbert white snow'.

I found this poem very ambiguous. That's not necessarily a bad thing. It certainly left me asking questions. Who's throwing the petals and why? What does 'legion of scandal' refer to?

I wonder if you need another dash at the eend of your 8th line.

For freeverse this flows very well.

I really like how this poem gives little snapshots of humanity and reveals the fragility of life. It's cleverly done and powerful.

The structure is good - I like the the way you alternate three line stanzas with stand alone lines.

The rhythm and pacing of this free-verse poem is mostly good but a little uneven in places especially in the longer lines. Reading the poem aloud might help guide you to where the flow could be a little smoother.

This is a very small thing but I was wondering if 'tourists passing by' might read a little better than 'tourist passersby'.

In your description, 'vingettes' should be vignettes.

This was a very thought-provoking read. Thanks for sharing.

This is a beautiful little free-verse poem about someone who wants to share their sorrow with a loved one so as to be comforted, but doesn't want to make them sad. That's an emotional subject matter which you handle well, resulting in a moving poem.

I think you overuse the word 'eyes' in the poem. The repetition jars a little towards the end.

I also noticed you have an extra full-stop (period) at the very end of the poem.

This is a very good poem that was a pleasure to read and review.

I hope the following comments will be useful but please remember not to edit your poem until the contest has been judged and awarded.

You really capture the pain of lost love in this emotional poem.

You use a fixed rhyme scheme here but some of your rhymes are only partial ('please/wish' and 'pure/cruel' for example) and this weakens the flow of the poem.

There are also a lot of grammatical errors in the poem, especially concerning tenses. As an example your second stanza is partly in the past tense and partly in the present.

These difficulties can be improved with time and practice. Reading your work aloud will also help especially as English isn't your first language. You may be able to hear where there are problems easier than you can pick them up on the page or screen.

You write from the heart and that's a good thing.

This poem has a lot of potential.

Keep writing!

Hello Kenzie

This is a great, anecdotal little story about the source of one churche's slightly peculiar tradition.

I agree wholeheartedly when you say that tradition for its own sake can be a bad thing. Personally I think too much tradition and ritual in a church can detract from the Christian message.

Your finally paragraph left me curious to know whether you did research your own church's traditions as you were invited to do.

This is a well written piece with a good message.

Thanks for sharing.

Hello The Huntress ~ Finding Love ,

I am one of the judges of the Invalid Item  contest. Thank you very much for entering round 1.

*Star* I hope the following comments will be helpful but please remember the rule not to edit your poem until this round of the contest has been judged. *Star*

This is a beautifully descriptive poem with some striking imagery.

The poem flows well and you've chosen your words carefully.

I would suggest a little more punctuation to avoid ambiguity in your meaning; specifically I think you should put fullstops (periods) at the end of your sentences.

As an example of how your current lack of punctuation could lead to a certain amount of confusion for the reader, let me highlight the following lines:

pleading for air that drowns
This sun, a life-giver that kills,


This could mistakenly be read as the air drowning the sun. It is only the capital 'T' in 'This' that suggests you're starting a new sentence in the second line. I hope you can see my point.

Otherwise this is a very strong entry.

Well done.

Best wishes,
Mark

Hello zoey2010

This is obviously a very personal piece of autobiographical writing and I like the sincere sentiment in it. I think you make a strong point about how are perspective on our parents, and our appreciation of them can change as we grow up.

You have worked hard on editing this since I first read it at the weekend. This has certainly improved your writing.

There are still a few errors though. For examples 'i am' in your last sentence shouldn't be a small 'i' but a capital, you use 'an' rather than 'an' in several places, 'wont' should have an apostrophy, and 'diffrent' is missing an 'e' before the 'r'.

Overall there are some real positive elements to this piece.

Keep writing!

Hello Insane Mosaic

This is an interesting short poem about the transforming power of time and the mysteries of identity.

I found the pacing of this poem rather uneven.

You use the word 'what' three times in your first two lines which I felt was a little repetetive and jarring. I think simply 'what was and what is' to 'what was and is' could help here, and would also improve the flow of this opening.

I also found 'flow like peak to the sea' rather awkward. It took me several reads to be able to see the meaning of this and I wonder if it could be better phrased.

These points aside this poem has potential. Thanks for sharing it.

Keep writing!

Hello Jeff

This is a nicely paced, well constructed short story about a couple of bank robbers and the inside man they work with on their latest job.

You provide a nice twist at the end of your tale.

I have just a couple of suggestions that might help if you choose to work on the story some more.

Firstly I think the comma in the following sentence should be removed as it creates an unnatural pause (try reading it aloud with the pause then without it, and you should be able to see my point):

'They had to be more selective about their inside man, now.'

Secondly I would suggest cutting the following sentence from your fourth paragraph:

'They initially contacted him by phone.'

This particular sentence becomes redundant when you write in the next paragraph:

'These preparatory conversations were all done by disposable phone, ensuring the Demetrios brothers' anonymity.'

Effectively in the space of two paragraphs you're saying the same thing twice. This repetition has quite a jarring effect and is best avoided, especially in such a short piece.

I found your story entertaining. Thanks for sharing it.

Hello Julia G.

This is a nice little poem about the stars which uses some good imagery.

It seems from your description of this poem that you intend to revise it some more. With that in mind, here are a couple of small suggestions which I hope will help:

Firstly wouldn't the night sky be 'across the kingdom of the' moon rather than the sun? That seems to make a little more sense to me.

Secondly the 'it' in your fourth line seems rather vague and ambiguous. If 'it' refers to the blending of light and dark in your previous line then you may wish to consider slightly rewording your fourth line to remove the ambiguity. 'Never seeming to end' could be a simple alternative.

Your poetry shows potential. Thanks for sharing it.

Keep writing!
