These are very pretty words.

Very unique poem.

I like how you mix the turtles and nature to show the birth of your grandson.

Your poem looks almost like a flower...were you going for shape poetry??
(If you added pink or red for the top and the rest green it would look like flower!!)

Your poem flows well and I really like the repetition of the 'floating' line.
Your rating, titles and genres are good.

My favorite part:
'and the cord is cut
you bobble to the surface
rising to the light,'

*Leaf1* OVERALL IMPRESSION:
I love the title you picked for this.
You show a womam's distrust and weariness well as she tries a new love.

My favorite lines:
'No, the dominos slide.
The icycles hang from the palace
of dreams.'

Your comparison of the sleigh in the ending stanza is very creative.


*Leaf2* MY OPINIONS/SUGGESTIONS:
Why worry?, I say to him.
I'd remove either the ? or the comma.

In the above line icycles should be icicles

This sounds like it could be a very interesting story-line if it was developed a little more.

You briefly mention the tail at the end...

My Overall impression:

Your poem is so romantic and tragic.

You capture their life and love well with these words
I could feel this man's pain and sadness.
Your imagery is good, I could see this elderly man standing at her grave site.

My favorite part:
Off weathered cheeks fall silent tears,
As he watches over his precious wife.
Her love and laughter his greatest wealth,
She’s the special chapter in his story of life.

My Overall impression:
Your rating title, and genres are all appropriate.

Your story reads well.
I did not notice any typos or grammar errors.

Suggestions/Errors:
I understand this is fantasy but it is really unbelievable.
There are a few thing I think you could do...one set this up a little more. Not just have one day you are on the island...??

Another would maybe show yourself waking up at the end as if you were dreaming.
I could see this more as a fantasy/dream.

Or why not let him pick/ why sit there and die?? If he chose one, then the fantasy could advance anyway!

*Gift2*OVERALL IMPRESSIONS*Note3*

I like your ending stanza and especially the line with sorrow.

You briefly show a confused man who has went through some bad times.
I'd like to know more on this man and his life.

*Gift3* SUGGESTIONS*Note3*
Watch your repetition of words.
In stanza two you have from three times.

You could add one more genre, maybe personal or emotional or bio.

I think you should try and personalize this a little.
Maybe add a few more details on why you feel this way.
