Beneath the Surface is an amazing anology describing what many of us have heard about mental illness. I must say I have never experience the illness first hand as I have not known or have had anyone in my family with mental illness. But you have laid out a picture in your poem that seems to encompass all the challenges one must deal with. This is a great way to share with the world the issue.

Your words so carefully outline what goes on at the same time giving hope where there is so much darkness. I would hope this poem has been shared with support groups and family members of those who are afflicted with mental illness.

Thanks for sharing this important poem. Blessings to you and your family.

Exciting! This is one poem form I am not acquainted with. To think that poetry would be blessed by the subject of food. There is no end to its creation. I guess we could dress up just about any food we may not like, say, egg plant!

You have done very well with it. I hope it won recognition.

Review of Bully  Open in new Window.
Review by Seabreeze Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (4.0)
Interesting poem on Bulling. I believe we have all experienced some of it at some point in our lives. How we react to bulling is so important. If we do embrace it then it becomes a nightmare. If we overly approach it, we may become as one who does the deed. Your poem brings out some of the ways it can influence us for good or bad.

It is a good write, thanks for sharing.

I love your short story. The concept...who would think of feeding air to someone. Very clever!
It's the type of story that could go on, become more. You have done well with the dialogue. I don't have any suggestions as to how to embellish on it.

Welcome again, newbie!

Review of Harvest Ball  Open in new Window.

Wow, very impressive. I have to admit that I had no idea about the format of a Kyrielle poem and the work that goes into its construction! So, I did look it up and now I have a new style to try, thanks.

I love the fact that the last line is repeated because I like its sound and what it brings. And I love its rhyme aspect! I guess, one has to besure they check and double check that they have the right combinations of syllables. In any case, well done!!

Amazing love for the an author and her art! I love how you have brought her to life in sharing your love for her. It is fun to even take it steps further in sharing her dress, period of life style, parties, jewelry and more. I took my granddaugher to a tea party once, so much fun to dress and have a special time together.

Your story is complete, great detail, and I could not imagine that you have missed anything important about the writer. You have done well with Jane and I must check out your place for other great writes!

Blessing to you,

Review of Wheat  Open in new Window.
Review by Seabreeze Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (5.0)
Poetry allows us to examine life. Take your wheat. It tells us that in the wind, even mild, we see it moving in a breeze. I think of wheat that way cause we see mostly when moving. I love your "silent seas" as it is like an ocean when you see large fields of grain. And, yes - cut down in its prime so that it can do its magic for those who process it! Wonderful poem.

Review of Spring Diamante  Open in new Window.
Review by Seabreeze Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (5.0)
This type of poetry is so much fun. I love yours as it gives us everything we would want to acknowledge in seed! What I really like about a Diamente is that it can point out to us about life, life of a particular subject. It gives us a more focus on the parts of a subject. Great job on this one.

A lovely poem. Who does not want His everlasting, heavenly and beautiful light? His return will surely bring us that!

You have captured the essence of what our Lord wants for us and what he provides for us, His children. If we could only see it; we need to open our eyes wider.

Your poem is well written having good flow, pulling in its reader as your beautiful descriptive words guide us. Not much more I can say. I love it!

This is an excellent reference to use for reviewers. I am returning to Writing.com after being away for a long time. I want to start reviewing again but I could not remember or find out how to turn back on my review button. It is currently set to the off position when I left and now want to reset it. How do i do this??

Thank you for your response.

Great story; well written piece! Never heard of it; funny! I guess every country has its "War of the Worlds" story.

Review of VISION  Open in new Window.

Rated: E | (5.0)
Amazing story! I related at many points and when you mentioned how you could see individual blades of grass, my heart jumps with joy. I wear glasses and have since my mid forties; nothing like being a child and discovering "life" as it is meant to be. However, when I got contacts, I remember going outside at night and seeing the stars, bright, individualized for the first time. Blessing indeed from our father, site. So glad to have read your story, thank you.

Very cute. I love animal stories. There is always something we humans can learn from such tales. Here I am reminded that no matter how different we are, we all want to be treated equal, have friends and want to care and love each other. We just need to learn how to do it better.

Thanks,
Seabreeze

Very nice Tanka poem. I like the ending...makes us think how much our bodies do to get us here and there! And the title is truly A tale of loyalty.

An amazing heart tugging story and so well written. We must, as we read, try to put ourselves in this position. Otherwise, how can we possibly understand or have the compassion that is needed.

Thank you for writing this and sharing it. My blessings go out to Kathie,

What adorable story. I remember my son's 2nd grade teacher, he had a crush on her. I don't remember if he ever got a kiss though.

I had a crush on one of my high school teachers, history, Mr. Borum. He was from Oklahoma and he had one of those drawls. Dark hair and handsome. I started out with a D grade and ended it with a B - just for him I remember, ha, ha.

Thanks for bringing back memories,

A great story. Who would ever think, though, the zombies would meet the pirates. I love the how you have intertwined the two and how she came to be a hero. Wonderful imagination. Beautiful ending.

I love it! It is the bridge, which I have not crossed in years! I miss California (native) and live in Utah (no ocean, ha, ha). I have tried color pencils but have not had much satisfaction. I like how you have blended the sunset colors; very nice.

Art work is truly a way to take us from our worries or everyday challenges! I can get lost in my watercolors (still trying to improve myself). At some point, I will try to share something, if I can remember how to post it. I do believe I have a few things on my portal, mix in with my poetry: a rose, a watercolor of a window/villa entry. Hope you can look at those.

Thanks for sharing....love to see more.
