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

I like the thoughts and questions that you leave your readers with.

*Idea* Suggestions/Errors:
You have a period at the end of every line, I think if you removed some of them the read/flow of this would be more smooth.

Line eight should end in a ? instead of a period.

*Star* My Overall impression:
Great title.
Your rating and genres are appropriate.

I'm not sure if I agree with all of your thoughts or not...I think if the two people involved are mature and straight forward with their intentions then it's up to them what they 'call' their relationship.

But I do agree with safety, there is so much out there now that people really need to be smart and protect their self.

You describe this well, I could easily picture my brothers and nephews in these words.

*Star* My Overall impression:
Your rating, title and genres are good.

Very cute children's poem.
I think a child would love to have a poem like this read aloud to them.
I think it would keep their attention and make them laugh while teaching them about manners and rules.

The rhymes, the alliterations and the repetition of Wiggly Worm Sue all work really well together!

If I had a young child, this is definitely something I would pick to read for them.

favorite part:
'Hush and sleep now Wiggle Worm Sue
Tomorrow holds many surprises new.
I will sing you a lullaby and blow you a kiss
Once you’re asleep your sweet smile I will miss.'

*Star* My Overall impression:

With dreams like this~we'd all get to sleep as soon as we could.
Love the descriptions you give~great imagery throughout!

Your poem flows well and your rhymes are good.

The ending is my favorite part:
'See sights unseen in waking life,
be hero, child, or fairy bright,
sail oceans wide and cross the sky,
and still be home by morning light.'

*Idea* Suggestions/Errors:
Add some genres, they will help your item get exposure.
Fantasy, nature and mythology would work.

*Star* My Overall impression:
Regarding your note in the forum about being scared.
DON'T be~that is what WDC is all about~getting out in the community, posting your items~getting feedback, returning the favor and having fun!!
(You might get some negative feedback~learn from it and remember it is just an OPINION!)

I enjoyed your poem.
The title is good and fits well, your rating is good.

I like this part on someone touching your life:
'a merry sunbeam distributed her cheer,
and set my world a'right somehow.'

I like stanza five the best.
I think we are all guilty of taking things for granted and focusing on the bad.
Your thoughts/feelings here are a reminder for your readers to be thankful and count our blessings.

*Idea* Suggestions/Errors:
Add some genres, they help your items to get more exposure.
Personal, experience, philosophy or self help would all work.

I would go through and check my punctuation and capitalization.
In places it seems right and other places you don't have it or the beginning line isn't capitalized where needed.

*Star* My Overall impression:
Your title is creative.
Your rating and genres are good.

Who hasn't had a romance like this.
You set it up well and your in ending is good.

my favorite part;
'Who could hurt more?
Me or you, it was all the same.'

*Idea* Suggestions/Errors:
I think the flow is off in stanza three because of these two lines:
One day we're happy
And then a shadow covered our days
try
One day we're happy
Then shadows covered our days

In stanza five, line one I'd cut so, which would help with the flow/read there.

Be sure and read your poems aloud to see how they sound and flow.

I like your ending thought of this being a game but you might try this for more impact:
For you hurt me, I hurt you.
John's little game.
try;
For you hurt me-I hurt you
In John's little game.

What a tragic love story this poem tells.
I like that you reflect at the end on being mature enough to see why this had to happen.
Your ending is so sweet how you show the love/him always being in your heart.

This has always happened and happens still...I was lucky and never had parents that did this to me. But as a parent of a thirteen year old.....I wonder if certain situation(s) occurred would I forbid her from seeing someone...

Very sweet poem, I got goose bumps when he talks of his empty house.

Your poem tells a story.
It also makes one think when you see a homeless (or tattered) person...don't assume anything about them..you don't know their story.

*Star* MY OPINIONS/SUGGESTIONS:
Why do you ride this way each day?

Your rating and genres are good.

I'm not sure I get the full meaning of this, so it is a little hard to review it.
So I will just let you know what parts I like and what I don't like.

I like this part the best and get it.
'Together we will grow in painful passion,
like lovers intertwined in disease and agony.
You are my pain; you are what makes me complete'

I also get the next to the last line about you being whatever they need but then the last line kind of loses me again.

*Star* MY OPINIONS/SUGGESTIONS:
A little confusing on death of roses in stanza two and on the black love?
Does this mean you like making love in the dark or...? does this mean the two of you are not good together or shouldn't be together?
(If you want to clarify this for me, I can re-rate it if you want.)
