Hi, Ravenwand,

I loved your little poem "The Creator". I especially liked the surprose ending, as I was not expecting the creator to be a child. How cool?

You have obviously done an excellent job with this form also. I see no obvious mechanical or spelling errors.

good job

Review of Weapon's Weavings  
Review by Cynaemon
Rated: E | (4.5)
Hi, Fyn,

I really enjoyed reading your poem "Weapon's Weavings".

Swords shot while women weave - this line seemed a bit forced to me, as I am not sure one would shoot a sword.

Other than that, you have done an excellent job with this most interesting form.

Best Wishes, Cynaemon

Hi, Hunter's Moon,

I loved your poem "Morning Ardor" although I have never been a morning person myself.

Thanks also for including your lexicon. The word aubade is new to me, but I will definitely be using it in the future. I love finding new and fun words.

You have done an excellent job with this form. I see no spelling or mechanical errors here.

Hi, Fyn,

I enjoyed reading your lovely Thanksgiving poem. And you truly do have something to be thankful for. What a wonderful sentiment. I love the last line: "no stumbling blocks--only stepping stones!" So often we forget that simple truth.

You have written a good free form poem, which has a nice rhythm and flow.

Hi, Dorianne,

I enjoyed reading your poem about life's storms. It is a lovely poem with a beautiful sentiment.

Your quatrains are excellent and well-contsturced. Poems with such long lines are often hard to write, and to keep the rhythm and flow going. You have don a great job with this. Good rhymes also.

Review of To: Whoever

Hi, Osigen,

This is a really neat poem. I am not familiar with the pantoum form, but it seems a bit like a sostina.

How romantic to write a poem a year after your first date. I could wish I was the fair Ashley, and that someone was writing a poem for me.

Good job.

Hi, Kate,

I enjoyed reading your poem, and love the way you describe the lines on a person's face as a roadmap to their lives.

I have never read a triolet before, and I found it interesting that some lines were repeated. YOur poem has a nice rhythme and flow.

Keep up the good work.

Hi, ravenwand,

What an interesting little poem. I don't think I have ever seen a shaped poem, and I really enjoyed reading it. The poem itself is really nice, and you have obviously done a great job with the shape.

This is a nice free form poem. You have inspired me to try something like this also.

Hi, Meg,

I loved your poem about the old deserted shack. You have described it so well the reader can really see it and feel it and taste the dry dustiness all around.

I especially liked the line: For it's warm and holds the memories of good cheer.

How nice to think of an old shack giving cheer.


Good job with your quatrains and your rhymes.

Review of The Tatooed Man  
Review by Cynaemon
Rated: E | (3.5)
Hi, Pony Tale,

I enjoyed reading your poem about the Tattooed Man. What an interesting idea to come up with to used the prompts given.

The reader really has to stop and think as you move from lion to wild horses. One has to imagine how the man looked. I liked that.

You have done a good job with your free from poem. It has a nice rhythm and flow.

Review of Summer Heat

Hi, Dave,

I thoroughly enjoyed reading your Saraband Sonnet. It is a beautiful love story. I did not know that there was such a thing as a Saraband sonnet. I will definitely have to try this form.

I love to play Sarabandes, and especially my favorite, G.F. Handel's Sarabande from the Keyboard Suite in D Minor for harpsichord. I have had the pleasure of actually playing it on a harpsichord, but usually play it on the piano when I am performing. LOL, which has nothing to do with reviewing your poem.

You have done an excellent job with the form.

Hi, Maggie,

I really enjoyed your poem "Bridge Across the Atlantic". Your words and images take the reader to an interesting fantasy world. I especially liked the first two lines.

I wonder why you picked the Atlantic to cross in your fantasy, as I believe the deepest part of the ocean, the Mariana Trench, is in the Pacific. LOL, just a bit of nit picking, as I love the beautiful Pacific, and was blessed to be born and raised along its shores.

Hi, Windsong,

I really enjoyed your poem "Message in a bottle" where you, the writer seem to actually be the message.

You have well constructed quatrains and good rhymes. In verse six, line two is very short compared to your other lines. But surprisingly this works in this poem, and does not break the rhythm and flow of the reading.

And i love the way you call the Pacific Ocean "mystic." There is just no other ocean like it.

Hi, gullionmar,

I enjoyed reading your poem and tribute to your mother. It was really nice and heartfelt. She must have been a very special person.

This is a nicely constructed free-form poem.

Only one small error: With my precious son to. In this line, the word should be "too"..Other than that I see no obvious grammtical or spelling errors.

Hi, Alex,

Really enjoyed your little poem about Altos. I am a first soprano, and you are right. We always do seem to get the recognition. However, I have always longed to have a beautiful deep alto voice like my Mother's. Maybe it is just that we do not appreciate what we have.

Anyway you have written a cute little poem with rhyming quatrains, and have done a great job.

Hi, Qaz4,

I really liked your little poem "Calling Me Home". I loved the images you painted with your words. I especially liked the last verse, as I return from my wanderings in space to come home. Only someone who knows the night well could create such images.

You have a nice free form poem with a gentle rhythm and flow.

good job.

Review of MY SECRET  
Review by Cynaemon
Rated: E | (4.5)
Hi, Meg,

I enjoyed reading your little poem about a secret. It really was fun. I think many of us can remember little secrets that we had when we were small. Sadly it seems, the secrets we have as adults are so much darker than those little secrets from long ago.

Now you have inspired me to go and write a poem.

Thanks and best wishes, Cynaemon

Review of Silence  
Review by Cynaemon
Rated: E | (5.0)
Hi, Forge,

I really liked your little poem on silence a lot. I love the way you compare sounds and sight, and sounds and light. One does not usually think of sounds as something visual. And even in the last line your silence still asks the reader to see it by comparing it to dreams appearing.

Excellent job.

Hi, Dr. M C,

I enjoyed reading your little love poem very much. I thought it was interesting that your poem is titled "I Keep Tears", and in all the verses until the end you do not shed your tears. Then suddenly you do.

You have done a good job with your format, and I see no obvious mechanical errors.

Good job.

Hi, Mr. Winston,

I enjoyed reading your most interesting poem. You are right. It could be interpreted in a number of ways, which made it a challenge to read. Well, I do have my interpretation, which I shall keep to myself, as yours may be quite different.

This seems to be written in sonnet style, and you have done a good job with it.

Keep up the good work.

Hi, W~W

I really enjoyed reading your poem about your totem animal, the wolf. I especially like the way your free form poems leads the reader on a journey with you.

Although the poem is long, the way you have varied the lengths of the lines and punctuated the poem made it easy to read and follow.

Excellent job.

Hi, loveofearth,

This is an interesting and fun little poem you have written. I am not sure that your description of the poem really describes the poem accurately, as It does not seem to be about a typewriter at all.

This is a good free form poem, and you have done a good job with that format.

Best wishes, Cynaemon
