Hi Dr. ET
I carefully read your poem, here is my review. Congratulations on your two years with WDC.
Please remember, I'm a writer just like you and these are only my impressions. My ultimate goal is to be helpful and supportive. Thanks for sharing your work.

TITLE: The title, On Earth's Where We Stand, is a wonderful title for this poem.

Narrative & Dialogue: The author's narrative on what will make the earth a better place is an eye opener. If we take care of our earth as we should, it, in turn, will prosper and take care of us with plenty of food that we can grow. When greed enters the picture, this helps only a few and leave us with problems that are hard to overcome.

Form & Flow: The form is aabba rhyming and the flow is free and easy with a message that all should read.

Imagery & Emotion: The imagery shows the reader what can happen if you plant your fields and gardens. A paradise of plenty shall prevail. The emotion is also in the wording. It tells everyone that we have the right to be here at birth, work hard to try and leave it a better place. Then we can proudly pass it on to our next generation.

Suggestions & Typos: There are no suggestions or typos.

Overall Thoughts & Rating: This is quite an inspirational poem that teaches us to be kind to the earth and it will turn into a lush garden of plenty. If only more people felt that way. Thanks for sharing this item! I only review things that I enjoy reading and I truly did enjoy this piece.

FAVORITE LINE: I have some favorite lines that stood out for me.
When God put man on Earth, He put also His trust
So to care for Earth and its creatures is a must
Have we forgotten that now?
Have we let it go somehow?
Because now man is driven by power-lust

The greedy people of this world is the ones spoiling it for everyone. They just don't care and what amazes me is they do have families and children. Don't they realize that their children and grandchildren have to live on this earth after he or she is gone. They can't take the money with them so it's a shame they don't have a heart to make this world a better place. The bottom dollor is what's always in their sights and this blinds them to anything elso. Such a shame!



Take care now, keep on writing, I’ll keep on reading,
Jeannie
