Review number 5 # of week Nov. 13-19th, 2014

Hi Arabelle, (what a beautiful name)

My name is Lyn and I am doing a review for Simply Positive.

Please remember I am a writer, I know what it feels like to be reviewed! Please take what you feel is helpful and disregard the rest. Only YOU know what is right for your writing!

Title: Meeting You

First Impression: The first line in the poem says a lot, it creates an awesome image of being overwhelmed, clinging and weight holding the young woman.

What I liked: The images created line by line of how the young woman felt about the consuming relationship and the powerful realization that it will fade as quickly as the wet clothes dry.

What needs your attention: Nothing, it flows very well.

Favorite Parts: The young woman finding her footing and stepping out of the situation. I am glad she knows that has the ability to change her life and is doing it. So many of our young girls are afraid to walk away from a relationship regardless whether it is good or bad.

Overall Impression: Excellent free verse, powerful reminder to women that they have the power to change a situation.

Thank you for letting me read your work. It was my pleasure!
Lyn
