"SIMPLY POSITIVE GROUP

Hello there, Newbie! Welcome to WDC. *Plug*
This is a Simply Positive Review.

*Bullet* I came across your poem, while perusing the "Read a Newbie" page.

*Gears* I found your poem to have some philosophical and spiritual flavor to it. There was no specific rhyme, but I enjoy free verse, too.


*Sanddollar* I liked the never give up attitude woven into the lines. I also loved giving praise to the Lord, for life, and each day we live, add the bonus of laughter and love, and it is full, indeed. Being thankful for all of that is essential.

Observations

*Die1* I've found a few spots that need some work:


It doesn't make since."
I believe you meant to say "sense" in this spot, not "since," since that just wouldn't make sense. *Wink*

"It what it is, That's just it." [It's Or It is]

"Nothing said can change the facts.
This world is s***, I'm okay with it."

[that] would be a better ending word than "it," because it adds a bit of rhythmic melody to the line above.
It is a pseudo rhyme with "facts," thus sounds a little better.


*Blockv* I think the word "s***," although it makes a point of emphasis, brings the poem down a notch. It is meant to shock a bit, not that I am, it's just that I didn't expect it placed in the line above a plea/prayer to the Lord. "Lord let it all just turn out right," It's up to you, but it may turn some readers off a bit. You could replace the word to prevent that type of reaction. Here is a quick example below:

TRY: This world is crap, but I'm okay with that!

*Tagy* It has more rhythm, doesn't lose the effect and will keep the tone of the poem with the spiritual words to the Lord, which follow it.


With a little edit of those lines above, with or without the "s***," this poem will polish up nicely!
*Starr*

Until next time--write on!

Regards,
WebWitch
