Hi Ann

This story is so true. Love is like a wild bird. If it flies away from our roof, it seems impossible to see its returns.

Love is so delicate and easily breaks, as it demands a lot of respect. When the respect is gene, love goes.

But there is a miracle that you should know about: It is possible to bring the bird back, to put the pieces back together. And the remedy is love itself.

Hi

I think this is exatly what love is. As I read somewhere, "love is war". Only with all its pain we get the chance to appriciate it.

Love is a constant struggle to unite individuals who are so different and yet so dependent on one another.

Well done

Review of Child Be Gone  Open in new Window.
Review by RainStar Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (4.5)
Hi

This poem is not my type and the reason is as follows:
poetry should come from heart and at moments when the soul is crying to escape..... Poetry and contest do not make a good couple unless an already written poem get submitted for a contest related to the poem's subject.

Anyway. It is my opinion and it does not mean it is correct! And by the way, to be able to write such a good poem and follow a contest rule, you must be a very able poet. And I can see this in your poem here.

Write on.

Hi Flower

I have already read the item in this folder and gave my comments earlier.

But I think you deserve stars for the folder itself. This is for you to write on your short stories.

So you keep writing for now and I will come back to read more.

Hi Flower

This poem of yours has something that I have mentioned in so many of my poems.... I am 38 now and when I look back at my young days, something always comes to my mind... Image of a wild girl with a hair scattered around her shoulders... Chasing cats and butterflies...

I love it when you said:

"with my hair flying
behind me."

So emotional, so deep!

Yes. I love this poem.

Hi Flower

This poem is so philosophical and deep. It is so sad and true that we sometimes forget about life for the sake of living.

We miss all the beauties that surrounds us and forget that the rainbow is out three as you mentioned and still busy kissing our eyebrows.

Such a sad fact! And how cleverly you portrayed it in this poem! Well done.

Review of Masks  Open in new Window.
Review by RainStar Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (4.5)
Hi tiger lily

The answer to your question is yes. We all hide behind masks, and do not have only one mask... We have so many different masks for different occasions and different individuals.... Masks are like clothes we wear... We put on clothes to hide our bodies, as well as how our bodies... Our clothes sort of represent our personalities... And so are our masks....

I loke this poem. It is a poem without a mask.

Review of Saving Grace  Open in new Window.
Review by RainStar Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (5.0)
Hi

I was amazed by the fact that the writer of this story is only 13. I came to this site while reading a testimonial by the author. The age 13 was mentioned. I have a daughter myself, so by seeing this item on the port, I decided to read on.

It is a fantastic story, both the plot, and the characters are well brewed and lovely.

Well done and I would like to come back and read more when you have other items here. You are a natural writer.

Review of The Accident  Open in new Window.

Rated: E | (4.5)
Hi

I like the way you describe images. They are like watching a film.. The pictures come alive in front of the reader's eyes.

I suggest that you use your talent in describing, to try adding some otehr senses such as smell, and taste to your writing. This way you would be nearer to reality...

Hi Kings

Happiness is where we feel good, perhaps in all of writing.com moments.... Why two hours per day on this site, reading and reviewing? Because it makes you happy: it is something to look forward to when you start your day.

Keep writing, and reviewing... Look forward to having you on my port....

Get here and make a logical story with only three words! I enjoyed adding my three words and I am sure you certainly will do too.

Pop in, raed the rules, read the story and add your three words.


This is a very original way of making stories together.

Well done. I love it.

Hi

This is the second matlib I have ever read. It was absolutely fantastic and surprising.
I specially enjoyed:
"To prove themselves, the contestants will have to compete in an endless string of pointless challenges, including, but not limited to, eating DONKEY EARS. But that’s just the beginning. In addition to having to survive each other, they’ll have to survive the company of Paris Hilton and POSH SPICE!”"

Well Done and thanks for the item.

Hi

This is the first matlib I have ever read. It made me laugh a lot. Quite entertaining.

Especially that I used the programme to be the "NEWS". LOL, and it came out as "you are sexier than you are in News."

Thanks for the item.

Review of Presence  Open in new Window.
Review by RainStar Author IconMail Icon
Rated: 13+ | (5.0)
A true philosophical item of fantasy:

This is a very beautiful and classical fantasy. I like the way Unusa searches for the truth.

Just a few opinions:

Overuse of the word “mist”., used it five time sin the first five paragraphs.

I like the following description: “ “Usuna, my Lord, it is so good to see you,” the man said as he finally reached Usuna. He reached out with his hand and held it there to welcome a handshake, but Usuna ignored this and gave the friend a bear hug.”

In the sentence: “We are at rest, now, and that is not what our Greaters would want of us. Let us smile and shake hands.”, what do you mean by “Greaters?”

In the ending, I would use “gods” instead of “Gods”, but it is up to the author to make the final decision.

I have not found any spelling or grammatical issues. The use of vocabulary is great.

Well done and write on. You are a very good writer of fantasy.

Hi Cubby again

You have someone who enjoys your port a lot.... And that is me again, RainStar, or as you called me, Rain!

I like this poll, as I had the question in my head as well. I used to blog and stopped it as I found people who bloged, were not serious about writing.

When I used writing.com for my trial period, I was amazed to see so many high calibre authors at this site, and I knew by instinct that so may of them were actually published authors and editors.

The reviewing system is great, but I found that with the number of people publishing on the site, there are not enough reviewers.

I personally think that whoever uses the site, has to do three proper reviews for each logon.

This way, we all get to read and review each other's work.

Review of A Letter  Open in new Window.
Review by RainStar Author IconMail Icon
Rated: ASR | (5.0)
Hi mswrite70

This item reminds me of two books "A Man" , and "Letter to a Child Never Born" both by Oriana Fallaci, an Italian Journalist and Novelist.

The style is similar to her style talking to someone who is passed away and telling a story.

I like your item and I think it is easy to expand it to a more comprehensive story. But as a letter, it is perfect.

Hi Ann

Quite an emotional call to what had been like for your mother at hospital.

This poem appeals to so many older people and is a reminder to younger ones to be tolerant and kind to elderly as one day, soon or late we would be their age and we will have their issues, loneliness and being overlooked.

God bless

Hi Storymaster

You sent me gift points for reviewing some items, and I though I return the favour and step into your port to see what you are up to.

I found this FREE article!!! *Bigsmile*.

On serious side, I personally think that writing.com is doing an absolutely great job. I love everything about this site; the fact that you continuously improve your services and created so many different items to attract more people into the community is easily perceived and I can't imagine you even get such accusations.

I have started my membership as a free trial. The range of free facilities for a free membership was above what one could expect for "FREE" anyway.

By the way, I have been thinking that you still can do a lot to make the site even better.

One of my suggestions is to provide a portfolio rating system as well; a place that users can give their overall opinion about each others port. This makes all the authors to pay an extra attention to individual styles and methods of grouping items in the port.

I have so many other suggestions too. But if you get a chance let me know what do you think about the one above. *Smile*

Hi

A good memory and a lesson to teach and learn.
First of all do not judge people by their dress: This applies to writing.com authors, do not judge them by the colour of their case.

Second: Do not assuem things are the way they are just by seeing the signals.... I mean the cup made the author to think that the lady was a beggar and the pale pair of jeans added to the reasons..., but it was not the case at all.

We make so many of these mistakes in our lives every time we judge someone by just looking at the surface...


Good story.
