What is Silence? [E] Describing what silence is to me. |
Hello jubshaw ! I'm here with "The WDC Angel Army" for this review. Let's get rolling! Corrections/Suggestions First impressions- I love the idea of describing silence. Do we ever really think of what it sounds like? And, is silence ever truly silence? In my case, there's the sounds of traffic, cars, and the occasional morning dove nearby singing a song. So, I think you do a great job tackling this concept of silence and what it means poetically to you. The metaphors and the imagery is on point with this. There isn't too much to edit or change with this poem. Except maybe non-essential words like "but, can, that, though, etc" to tighten up the lines of your poem. Things Which I Enjoyed Silence is snow falling outside your door Turning the world into seamless white. This first stanza really hits it out with describing silence. I love the imagery of the snow falling outside your door. Then, the wording of turning your world into seamless white to be enjoyed. I like how you flip it to the book and thoughts as a way for silence to be realized. And that silence can mean thoughts that are good or evil, but try to think good. Overall Comments Overall, this is a well-done poem that could maybe be strengthened with elminating words that are excessive and maybe don't add to the lines strength as much. But, the message is strong in this and your imagery is quite pleasant to imagine. Thank you for sharing and keep on writing! =D My review has been submitted for consideration in "Good Deeds Get CASH!" .
