My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. I am reviewing this item for the Angel Army Newbie Challenge SEP 2020. THE POEM The poem touches on the sadness of losing a loved one. WHAT I LIKED I liked the word play; it deepened the expression of the poem. There was a rhythmic flow that I experienced when I read the poem. STRUCTURE This is free form poem. There was an ABAB rythme scheme in the stanzas. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. The poem is easy to read. DESCRIPTIONS I liked: "The taste of falling rain, still lingers on my lips." It's a haunting description; well done! PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS The first and last stanza repeats, giving the poem the feeling of returning full circle. I have no suggestions for improvement. Reviewed by StephB for the the Angel Army
