 A "Game of Thrones"   Martell Review A Review from "SIMPLY POSITIVE GROUP" Hello, gardengirl! I am Aqua and the following are only my personal opinions. Ultimately, you and only you can decide what works best for your item.  Why I chose to review this work: While I was looking through your poems, this particular poem caught my attention due to its title that could be interpreted in so many different ways and because of the short description. Life is a journey where it has joys and sorrows, death and life, regret and hope. When I read the first half of your short description, I could feel myself getting sad, wondering if the poem might be about the regrets of the poet from her past but then when I read the other half of the sentence, I could feel myself becoming hopeful for a better tomorrow, a better future without regrets. It felt to me as if the poet was assuring herself that in life where it is a tree, the hope and regret are both part of it and where there is one, there is the other. Not only did you do that, you persuaded the reader and raised hopefulness in her too. Very effective title and short description! First Impression: A very personal beautiful poem! It left me surprised for a moment before I recovered and read the poem again. It was very nice and just like the title and the short description, it made the reader feel happy, uplifting and determined to change anything that will come our way for tomorrow. Imagery and Vocabulary: The opening stanza was beautiful, it caught the reader's attention being full of grief and regretful feelings as she too wondered and related what you had written to her past. There are so many things we would have waned to change in the past and if given the opportunity maybe, maybe, some of us would but then we wouldn't be the person we are right now, be in the position we are standing in. The bad aspects and the pain, the regrets, you cover them perfectly in the first two stanza and then you bring in the factor of hope quite effectively in the next stanza. The flow of your poem was good, there was no interruption and the movement from the regrets to the good aspects, the hope felt very natural. The vocabulary you had used was quite strong and you use a deeper meaning for the word 'sometimes' just like 'if.' Favourite Lines: The third and the last stanza - I absolutely loved those! I loved the third stanza because these sometimes are actually moments that end in a second and it is a split second decision that decides and changes everything. If we fail, there is sometimes consequences but at the same time, we are prepared for tomorrow, to make better choices. I liked the last stanza because of how you related exhaling and inhaling with getting out of pain, recovering from it and building hope and dreams inside of you. Very inspirational! Final Thoughts: A very good inspirational poem that gives the reader hope that life is not all regrets.   Thank you for sharing your work with us!
