Review of Interloper  
Review by Deb
Rated: E | (4.5)
My kind of poetry. I like to be able to understand without searching for meaning. This perfectly describes the plight of the dandelion.
I like that you relate it to life as well in the last line. As we all know, it matters not how beautiful you are if someone decides you are different and don't belong.

Thanks for sharing.

What a lovely way to express the essence of God. Not a single molecule that is not connected, such a overwhelming concept. Thank you for sharing.

This was a very engageing story. I enjoyed tremendously and will look forward to The Dragon Riders.

I have to tell you that when I read I often see characters or hear their voices as someone I know of such as actors etc. Every time Whiff called Analia "little lady" I saw and heard John Wayne. I hope you get your book published soon.

In the paragraph; Lord Haut looked at her with resignation.....
The last sentence...As you know there is nothing quite so close to a god as a the battlefield.

I am not sure of your intent..as the or as a.

I think in the paragraph, The cell door....
The last sentence; She did radiate hostility should be did not radiate....

The paragraph,"Your hurting me you beast!" Elaine quickly shouted. It is Elise.

This is not about this chapter but in our description at the top beginning of the book the title reads The Long travelor. Also revealed is spelled reveled. I am enjoying the book and all the characters.

At the very end of part 15, I believe it should read generations of Schermons.

In the first paragraph pealed should be peeled and sops should be soups. Also several times toward the end you refer to Nania as Nana. Did I miss that Analia shortened it?
I love that you are tying all of this back to man's unquenchable thirst for power and the failure of so many civilizations before ending in failure due to this. I love a story to have a positive purpose.

Khelti is spelled wrong in the paragraph, Peter quickley recovered.

I don't know if you want small corrections but In the first paragraph it should read more and more angry. In the paragraph abut the festivities raisin is misspelled raison. And in the paragraph beginning, At a signal from the cheif referee, Lord Alwathe is spelled Alwthe.

The story is great and I continue!

You are taking us on a quite a journey. I feel like this world is actually our future rather than our past. I realize this is fantasy, but it is thought provoking nonetheless.Reading On!!

Tiny little things,part 3 when the dragon is telling Analia that she is warn down. I thought you might have meant worn unless it is the dialect.

Part 4 you say Pieter name is Schermon but his father is Shermon.

The sentence about the 2 young men in the tavern: At the end of the paragraph about Pieter it says estate of his on. Own?

Great story so I will continue!

We have all been there! This is a good start. I am sort of in the same place. It seems like it si easier to write when I have some emotional turmoil going on.

Your poem is heartfelt and real and I certainly hope your scribbles continue. I enjoyed reading your work.

Hi Magoo, I always try to return a review so here goes!




First Impression*NoteR*




Loved your poem. I think children will be enchanted! I also has a underlying message about trust.






Favorites:*SuitHeart*


I don't think there is a particular line but I love the way you incorporate the various other magical elements!



Truly love the line about imagining making a meal of the candy.






Suggested Tweaks:*Checkg*




None




Thanks for the great poem. I love simple poetry that you don't have to search for the meaning. It is the way I love to write.

Review of Our Lady's Tears

Hello Yellow Rose, I always try to review those who do me the favor and found this poem very moving.





First Impression*NoteR*


It made me think of the poem I wrote called "Blessed Mother." A beautiful poem and wonderful way to tell us about the Lily of the Valley.








Favorites:*SuitHeart*




I really like the 5th and 6th stanza's because it lets the reader know that life was coming from the pain. So true that in life most of our greatest rewards come from our greatest trials.








Suggested Tweaks:*Checkg*



I like the 4th stanza but I believe it would read better if women was woman and it might flow better if you used to pray.




It is a lovely heartfelt poem and just the kind of poetry I love.



Thanks for sharing.

Hi jaya,




First Impression*NoteR*




My first impression was that it would take someone who possesses the quality to express it so well.






Favorites:*SuitHeart*



I love the whole first part but especially the mother Earth, waiting stanza. It is beautifully put!




I also like that the poem resembles a vessel waiting to be filled.




Suggested Tweaks:*Checkg*

This is a great little guide when I have those senior moments and can't remember comma and apostrophe rules. Sometimes when I am in a hurry it is really hard to remember where to look for these tips so I will make this a favorite so I can find it quickly! I am so glad that this was included in my e-mail notifications this month! Thanks!

This is the kind of poetry that I love! Anyone can understand it and enjoy the message that you are sending. A wonderful tribute to your friend and very well done.

It has good flow and rhyme. I am told that I need to branch out and try harder rhyme schemes but I love keeping it simple!

Beautiful!

Review of Remember?  
Review by Deb

Hello,
I like to return the favor of a review! This poem is bittersweet and full of emotion.

I believe the first Verse has the best meter and flow..I have been encouraged by some to pay strict attention to meter in a rhymed poem.

If it is meant to be free verse it is not so important.

Some of the lines are a bit combersome. I'd long to spend; with you a night. If you could find a descriptive like blissful it might read easier.

Barely we would be apart is another example. Maybe..seldom would we be apart?

Lastly And rain; it poured down from the sky. And rain poured from darkened sky?


Just my American thoughts!

Hope this is helpful and Thanks for the read!

Review of Crimson Teardrops

Hi, this is a shower review.





First Impression*NoteR*



Very powerful topic and difficult to express the emotion it evokes.







Favorites:*SuitHeart*



Crevice growing day by day. It is so powerful and expresses so much that the abuser doesn't see. A child is tied emotionally to the adult but the crevice widens as the child grows in understanding.









Suggested Tweaks:*Checkg*




Tears of crimson is a powerful image and running steep doesn't quite do it justice. Maybe now they weep.


The only other suggestion would be that it might be a little more powerful in the last stanza if it were Harm not this child in any way.


It is a great poem. Thanks for sharing.











My review has been submitted for consideration in "Good Deeds Go Noticed.
