Hello! It's me, reviewing your poetry:

*Balloon* What was enjoyable and exceptional:
This poem is a beautiful poem!

*Balloon* Content, What you've conveyed to me::

It reminds me of a painter trying to paint someone's portrait and capturing just the right look! Really it's so beautiful to think of painting some's soul and the title is fantastic!

*Balloon*Improvements if you so wish, implement only what you think will enhance your piece:
This whole stanza kind of throws the flow off.

To paint someone's soul
One have to see what the eyes can not
With nuances which doesn't exist
Create the portrait of soul
( Maybe the second line should have the word"has" instead of "have"?

*Balloon* Encouragement:

The style of writing the way you have is is beautiful and with a little tweaking this poem would be a five!

Hello! It's me, reviewing your poetry:

This is a totally different poem than what I am used to but I liked it.

It kind of repeats itself that it rambles on but a little revision might help.

Review of Not Forgotten  
Review by 1leila123
Rated: 13+ | (4.5)
Hello! It's me, reviewing your poetry:

*Balloon* What was enjoyable and exceptional:

This poem had me wondering because the flow seemed off a little and I can't put my finger on it!


*Balloon* Content, What you've conveyed to me::

I would say it came across as lost love in one way or another. Maybe someone leaving someone behind then its too late to go back? Thats my take on it.


*Balloon*Improvements if you so wish, implement only what you think will enhance your piece:
This is the part that made me stumble as I read it.

Pain breaks way to emptiness
But no one left will refill
You want things done, you do it yourself,
And with this flame, I will.

It kind of seems a mouthful. Maybe say:
Pain breaks to emptiness
No one will refill
Get things done
do it yourself
With this flame I will.

I don't know but if you want you can try it. It's just a suggestion and by no means am I a professional!



*Balloon* Encouragement:

I like your style and your subjects! You have deep inner feelings that shine out in your writings.

Hi, it's me, reviewing your story:

*Note* First Impression:

From the first I liked this story and how you worded it. We have all been down at rock bottom and had to climb out. At least they kept looking forward to things getting better and leaned on each other through it all.



*Thumbsup* Plot Thoughts

The plot was good where they had to cash in whatever they could find to come out ahead.


*Right* Errors

Your spelling needs some work on it but thats about all except a little punctuation. With that corrected I would have gave you a five it would be that good. It held my interest certainly!



*Star* My Favorite Part
My favorite part was how they went aboutgetting extra money to come up with cash.


*Idea* Suggestions


Like I said above work on the spelling and punctuation.



Write On! I look forward to reading more of your work!

Review of Mommy  
Review by 1leila123
Rated: E | (3.5)




Hello! My name is Leila and I am reviewing for the
 Invalid Item 
This item number is not valid.
#1458243 by Not Available.
. I am the Editor of the monthly newsletter Affected By Abuse. Thank-you for entering and letting me judge your poem to the best of my ability!*Bigsmile*


Characters:

I had a hard time keeping the characters straight in this dialogue. Maybe a few more paragraphs would help with that. Otherwise it all kind of runs together.


Flow:

The flow was off because one paragraph ran into another so I think my above suggestion might help there.

Spelling and Grammar:

The spelling and grammar need to be checked out as it helped throw your flow off. I like the article itself, its very good and shows deep feelings that are tantamont to being a good writer.


Best Part To Me:

The whole article was the best part to me as I stated above.


Suggestions on improvements from my stand-point only:

Fix the grammar and spelling then have it rayed again and I hink you'll be pleasantly surprised with the results



Have a wonderful day and evening then do some more writing!

Review of Life...  
Review by 1leila123
Rated: E | (4.5)
Hi, it's me, reviewing your story:

*Note* First Impression:

My first impression was that you were contemplating all that you had been through over your life thus far.



*Thumbsup* Plot Thoughts

Going back does have its regrets and sometimes we can't undo things in the past, we have to move forward in our walk.



*Right* Errors

To my way of thinking I would like to see this piece longer than what it was. It seemed to skirt around the edges and not have a center to it. Like explainging what regrets you had or what actually you went through? Things like that.



*Star* My Favorite Part

My favorite part was your faith that you had so far made it up to the point you are at today.



*Idea* Suggestions


To give the piece more substance than it has. You are good at writing, just need a litle more detail. But thats up to you only. Your the writer!



Write On! I look forward to reading more of your work!

Review of Forgotten  
Review by 1leila123
Rated: E | (4.5)
Hello! It's me, reviewing your poetry:

*Balloon* What was enjoyable and exceptional:
This poem was just so cute! It came off with great flow and I think it was an awesome subject.

*Balloon* Content, What you've conveyed to me::
I think we sometime get so busy that we do have a tendency to forget ourselves!*Bigsmile*

*Balloon*Improvements if you so wish, implement only what you think will enhance your piece:

The flow is a little off on some of it. Stand back and come up and try and read it objectively, like you wern't the one who wrote it, and you'll see what I mean. Maybe your trying to fit too many words in some sentences. Give it a try!
For example try this:

I forgot myself the other day
I left me at the park
The sky was getting, oh so gray
It was far too dark



*Balloon* Encouragement: You are a good writer and I see you fast becoming an excellent one. Just take my suggestions for what you want though. They are meant as just suggestions.

Review by 1leila123
Rated: 13+ | (4.0)
Hi, it's me, reviewing your story:

*Note* First Impression:

I enjoyed this story immensely and it has a moral to it!



*Thumbsup* Plot Thoughts

The confusion concerning why his friends didn't answer him was great! That is a good subject and piqued my interest.



*Right* Errors

Punctuation errors need to be straightened out, like capitization. Then it would look better and one wouldn't stumble over the flow. I can see where you are a good writer as far as content and subject, just concentrate a little more on your punctuation.



*Star* My Favorite Part

My favorite part was when he finally found out why his friends wouldn't talk with him.



*Idea* Suggestions


Just straighten out your punctuation.

Hello! It's me, reviewing your poetry:

*Balloon* Content, What you've conveyed to me::
That some smiles are false without true meaning therefore they are hollow.
