Review of 8..  
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  
Rated: E | (5.0)
I just finished reading your poem "8..." I will give you a review today. Although I am not a professional reviewer, I can give feedback on how your poem had an impact on me.

The part of your poem I found to be interesting is as follows:

So, when you next feel the surge of a cool breeze against your cheek,
Thank Her... not only for your being but for Hers
For Mother Nature is everywhere, everyone, everything.
She is the formidable tree you climbed and conquered at just 8 years old
She is the briny blue ocean that practically swallowed you whole as you learned of Her crude warnings
She is the juicy, sweet, crisp apple you bite into; the apple your last baby tooth finds itself stuck, separated from the mouth She gave you in hopes that you would tell Her story...

This is so true. I remember an old commercial on television that said, "It's not nice to fool Mother Nature." Mother Nature is a force not to be reckoned with. She can be kind or unkind. She has the power to cause the weather to be destructive. It's best to be on her better side.

I encourage you to write. You give a nice, detailed description of what she is like. I enjoyed reading your poem.

I hope that my review has helped in some way. I hope you have countless blessings of friendships, good health, and much happiness.

Review of Untitled (Love)

Hello and Good morning to you!

I just finished reading your poem Mother Nature "Untitled (love)". You deserve a review and I will do one for you. Even though I am not a professional reviewer, the feedback on how your poem left an impact on me is something I can do for you.

Your expression about nature in your poem was well done. I could feel the emotion behind it. It sounds like a lot of thought went into writing it. I encourage you to write. The first two stanzas are as follows:

The sweet, billowing breeze rushes to greet my nose.
My eyes flutter closed as I absorb the energy whirling me.
Raindrops beat on my forehead as Mother Nature kisses the top of my head.
I stand, unwavering in the face of the storm.

A smile stretches across my face.
I know I remain divinely protected.
I need nobody else,
For I have Mother Nature standing at my side.

I love how it flows so brilliantly.

I encourage you to keep writing. Writing is good therapy; it helps me feel better by getting my thoughts down on paper. Coming out into the open takes courage and I'm glad you have taken the first step by sharing your poem. I enjoyed reading it.

I hope you have many friendships, good health, and happiness. These are blessings everyone should have.

Have a great day! I hope my review has helped you. I pointed out some capitalizations and periods in your poem. I put them in when I wrote the two stanzas.

Hello and Good morning to you!

I just finished reading your essay "An Unforgettable Nightmare." You deserve to get a review and I am giving you one. I am not a professional reviewer. I can give feedback on how your essay had impacted me after I read it.

I agree with your essay. The corona virus was an unforgettable nightmare. There were a lot of people who lost their lives through this ugly disease. To my knowledge, I haven't heard of anyone losing their life due to the corona virus in my family. I wish I could bring those people back. This was such a tragedy.

I wish more attention was paid to getting rid of this disease. I heard there is a new strain of it going around named flirt. I hope this time it can be kept under control (nip it in the bud) before it gets out of hand.

I encourage to keep writing. You were descriptive in how it came about. It took courage to share your essay and I am glad you did.

I hope you are in good health, blessed by friends, and happiness.

Hello and Good morning to you!

I just finished reading your short story fantasy "I Can't Believe You're Mine." Your story is worth a review and I will gladly give you one. Although I am not a professional reviewer, I will provide feedback on how your story impacted me.

I enjoyed reading your story. It was a cute love story. They couldn't keep their eyes off each other; they were very much in love. When she asked 'Who do you like?, the response was I like you because you're gorgeous, sweet, and funny. These are admirable traits to have. She dropped her coffee after she was told that she was liked.

I encourage you to keep writing. It was an enjoyable read and other people should enjoy it also.

I hope your upcoming days will be filled with many blessings of friendship, good health, and happiness. I hope the review I provided was helpful. Feel free to read any of my writings when you have the time.

I liked the second sentence, "We'd just left the coffee shop. When we walked by, she giggled and pulled me aside saying, "C'mon, let's be basic white girls and get some pumpkin spice!"

Review of Tides

Hello and Good morning to you!

I just finished reading your poem "Tides." Doing a review for you sounds good to me. Although I am not a professional reviewer, giving you input on how your poem had an impact on me is something that I can do. I hope it helps you.

I am tickled with you coming out from having an illness, such as bipolar, to share your poetry. This takes a great deal of courage. I have a schizoaffective disorder. The stigma attached to this is hard to take most of the time. My thinking is different from other people most of the time and I am slow at doing things, which seems to bother people a lot. I get frustrated at myself too.

If you can find the time, I would like you to give me your interpretation of your poem. I think I have the gist of it, but I would like to hear it from you. I have been a member of Writing.Com for over five years now and have come to enjoy the family I have come to know on this website.

I encourage you to keep writing. You are brave; don't ever doubt that. I have wanted to share my stories for quite some time and am working on self-publishing some books. This is a huge step for me. Feel free to read my writings when you have time.

I hope you will have friendship blessings, good health, and happiness. You deserve to have this.

Review of Cloudy

Hello and Good morning to you!

I just finished reading your short story "Cloudy." I am going to write up a review for you. I am not a professional reviewer but getting feedback on how your story impacted me is something I can do.

It's wonderful that you wrote this story about your personal experience with someone who has Alzheimer's disease. It takes a lot of courage to come out into the open to share your story. I can relate to this because my mother had dementia. I took care of her for a long time without knowing this. One thing that kept me going was that she never let a day go by without telling me how much she loved me. I can still visualize her shaking her finger at me and saying, "Now, Anna, don't you let anyone tell you that you didn't take good care of me, because you did." I will never forget that. I was close with my mom and when she left this earth, it had made her passing somewhat easier. I had to be the one to decide to end her life when she lost a lot of blood. I was told that they could give her a blood transfusion that could've prolonged her life a little bit, but that she would've been in a lot of pain. This was hard for me to do. My family didn't think that I needed to do that. The hospitalist went over all the options with me and that's when I had to decide to end her life. I was told that she passed on peacefully. I was happy about that.

I encourage you to write. Writing helps to express your feelings about what you're going through in life and sharing your story with someone else can benefit them too.

I hope you are blessed with friendships, good health, and happiness. I hope my story has helped you.

Hello and Good morning to you!

I have just finished reading your essay "An Observation of Homelessness." I am not a professional reviewer but feedback on how your essay has impacted me is something I can do.

I enjoyed reading your essay on homelessness. I was homeless for about three years. The good thing was that my special boyfriend had a vehicle to stay in. The worst part was that there weren't any restrooms open at night. The homeless people who were in my area often left a huge mess behind them. Picking up the trash we made, was put in the garbage can. Giving up a lot of my belongings was hard to do. I prefer to live in an apartment or a house myself. It's too bad that rents have to be so high. Paying rent takes up most of the income. I didn't think I would ever be homeless, however, we did find some good people out there helping us.

I realize there are those individuals who prefer to be outside with nature. This is something that would be very uncomfortable and scary for me.

I encourage you to write. Others can learn about homelessness through their experiences with it. I'm glad you shared your story; it takes tremendous amounts of courage for someone to do that. I am trying to self-publish some books if I can. I admire how you described and informed me about your experience with homelessness. The community I live in treats the homeless well except for those who don't care about homelessness.

I encourage you to keep writing; you have a talent for expressing yourself. Keep up the good work.

I hope you have blessings of friendship, good health, and happiness.

Hello and Good morning to you!

I just finished reading your essay "For S.G.". I decided to write up a review for you. I am not a professional reviewer but giving you feedback on how your essay left an impact on me is something I can do.

Your story was touching to me. This is quite a dedication for someone who has been a mentor and a friend to you for eight years. I hope this person can one day see what you wrote for him/her. They would be pleased with you. I'm sure that they would be proud of you also.

I encourage you to keep writing. I hope I will be able to be a mentor and friend to someone like this. It pleases me when I can encourage people to write. Writing is good for a person. It takes courage to come out and share your story. I enjoyed your essay very much. You are an inspiration to me.

I hope you have many friendships, good health, and much happiness.

Review of Why?

Hello and Good morning to you!

I just finished reading your poem "Why." I am doing a review for you today. Your poem has an impact on me. I am not a professional reviewer, however, I can provide feedback.

There have been questions running through my mind for quite some time. I have had similar questions, except that it involves a relationship I've been in for over seventeen years. For some time now, my special man doesn't seem to have any of the same interests I have anymore. He doesn't talk to me. I have been trying to figure this out. Even though this happened, he has encouraged me to do things I wouldn't have thought of before, such as running a half marathon. Both of us have been feeling poorly for a while. We should be there for each other, but it seems to be a one-sided relationship; it takes both of us to make it work. I hope he will come around again, but it feels like he wants to move on.

I want to encourage you to keep writing. You did well in expressing your questions.

I hope you will have friends, good health, and happiness.

Review of Erase

Hello and Good morning to you!

I just finished reading your poem "Erase." I will gladly do a review for you. It helps a writer to become a better writer from the feedback. I am not a professional reviewer, however, I can give you feedback on how your poem has affected me.

It is hard when someone has to move on and start over. I'm in a relationship now that I'm trying to figure out. I fell in love with him and now he wants to leave the area. He said we can be snowbirds like we discussed, but, I have this feeling inside of me that feels -that once he leaves, I won't see him again.

Love can hurt sometimes. When the other person in the relationship doesn't want to talk to you, you know something is up, like they want to move on.

I want to encourage you to write. I can feel the emotion in your poem; it hit me hard by the words you expressed. I wrote a poem "Cold-hearted" that puts a lot of emotion out there.

Your book sounds exciting to me! It talks about a child's valuable lessons while sparking joy and imagination. From what you wrote, this book takes a child on many adventures. It sounds like a good book that I would like to read.

I encourage you to write. I have a creative imagination and hope to get everything together to self-publish some books. This is a dream of mine to do this. I have a lot of material together; I don't know how to get a manuscript together.

Hello and Good morning to you!

I just finished reading your short story "Dream and Challenge." I am going to give you a review. I believe that reviews are important because they help us improve our writing. I am not a professional reviewer but when given feedback on how your story has impacted me, it could be helpful for you.

I am delighted with your short story. I love the inspiration behind it. It shows how a person can achieve their dreams when they don't give up. Even though his parents didn't feel that he didn't make the right decision regarding his career, in the end, they saw how much he enjoyed his profession and couldn't help but come around. Persistence pays off on what one needs to do to accomplish their dreams. Don't let anyone deter you from your dreams.

I encourage you to keep writing. I was impressed and inspired by your short story. I'm sure others would get a confidence booster after reading your story.

I hope you will find my review enlightening. Good friendships, health, and happiness are the things I envision for you always.

Hello and Good morning to you!

I just finished reading your poem "I Can Smell The Rain." I am going to give you a review. I am not a professional reviewer. I am giving you feedback on how your poem has impacted me.

I enjoyed reading your poem. It was beautifully written. I could feel the emotion and the rhythm. I felt great after reading it. I have been battling with allergies for about five weeks now. I was informed that if we could get some rain here, the tree pollen would clear itself up; and the pollen count would be less. I should get some relief if that were to happen. I sure hope that they're right.

I want to encourage you to keep writing. Your attention to detail felt like you put a lot of work into writing it.

I hope miracles of healing, friendships, and happiness surround you.

Hello and Good morning to you!

I just finished reading fiction story "The Abandoned Mansion." I am going to do a review for you. Reviews are important for a writer; they help you to become a better writer. I am not a professional reviewer, but my feedback can be helpful to you. I will tell you how much your story impacted me.

Your story terrifies me because it talks about an arachnid. I am afraid of spiders; they give me a chill.

The last paragraph of your story is as follows:

Suddenly, the room plunged into darkness. Panic gripped me, and I fumbled for my flashlight. With a click, the beam revealed an unsettling -- a massive arachnid perched on the mirror's edge. All I saw was its spidery long legs, reaching out like twisted branches. Paralyzed, I watched in horror as it scuttled towards me, weaving shadows into a sinister dance. The whisper returned, revealing the mansion's secret: a spectral arachnid guardian, ancient and hungry for trespassers.

I would definitely get out of harm's way when it comes to being faced with an arachnid. They give me the creeps. One time when I was doing dishes, I saw a spider in the sink. I began talking to the spider. I said, "I am going to leave the room now, and when I come back, I expect you to be gone. When I came back, it was gone. I was certainly relieved after that.

I encourage you to keep writing. This was a good horror story. I hope my review was helpful to you.

I hope your day comes with many friendships, good health, and happiness.

I finished reading your story of fiction "Keeper of Forgotten Tales." After I finished reading it, getting a nice review would be a nice thing to do. I am not a professional reviewer. I can offer feedback on how your story impacted me. Getting reviews are important; they help you to become a better writer.

I enjoyed the whole story. The following lines were interesting:

"I seek understanding," I finally replied, "of the realms unseen, the stories untold. I wish to grasp the essence of existence and unravel the mysteries that elude mortal comprehension."

A special smile played across his lips, revealing teeth like ivory needles. "Understanding is a precarious pursuit, for the more one seeks, the more entangled they become in the cosmic dance. But fear not, for in your quest, you may find truths that transcend the boundaries of mortal understanding."

With that, the man released my hand, and his eyes, like portals to a forgotten era, closed once more. The wind carried his whispering words, bidding me to continue my journey into the unknown.

As I left the shadowy enclave beneath the colossal oak tree, I couldn't shake the feeling that I had brushed against something ancient and profound - something that lingered at the edges of perception, waiting for those daring enough to peer beyond the veil.

I have a few minor corrections for you. The line that starts With that, should read as follows:

With that, the man released my hand, and his eyes were like portals to a forgotten era, closed once more. I hope the above correction will help you.

I encourage you to write. I wanted to know more.

I hope your days are filled with blessings of many friendships, good health, and happiness.

Hello and Good morning to you!

I finished reading "Colorado Moon." I am not a professional reviewer but giving you feedback on how your story impacted me would be something I could offer you.

I like the first stanza in your story that talks about nature. It reads as follows:

Colorado nights are cold
And the Wyoming winds blows through my bones
But there is a Georgia moon in the Colorado sky
And she warms me with her smile.

There is one minor thing that I would like to point out. The second line should be as follows:
And the Wyoming winds blow through my bones rather than blows through my bones.

I enjoyed the last line, And she warms me with her smile.

Even though the Wyoming winds are cold, the Georgia moon in the Colorado sky gives you warmth from her smile. This is so beautiful.

Hello and Good morning to you!

I have done a review of your article entitled, "The Great Unknown." I am not a professional reviewer but sharing how your article has impacted me may be helpful.

I enjoyed reading your article. I agree with you. Teaching the next generation about respect wouldn't be a bad thing for them to learn. I am 67 years old and was taught about having respect for older people. Older people have more wisdom due to the experiences they've gone through. It scares me that the youth of today are instilling violence. This makes me very sad. I am an optimist; even though things look bad right now, I believe, with all my heart, we can turn it around for the better.

Review of Love for poetry  
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  
Rated: E | (5.0)
Hello and Good morning to you!

I am not a professional reviewer but I do my best to inform you how much your poetry has impacted me. Reviews are important to me as a writer because it helps me to become a better writer.

I finished your poem entitled, "Love for Poetry." What I liked most about your poem was the part that said at the beginning:

I was only the poet
But I too wanted to be a poem.
All these words that I use
I too wanted to be arranged like them.

Just the simple words
To make sentences so beautiful
I wonder how would I be
if I were to become a poem too.

I also like the following:

My poems only contained the words
But that's not only what I wanted to write
With each word I wrote
I wish to write emotions as well alongside.

It's not only me but the whole world
That admires the beauty of poetry
Though everyone feels the same
Only a poet writes it down beautifully.

It's just not the beauty alone
But emotions that we feel as well
Maybe,
I wanted others to feel what I felt
Everytime I wrote down a poem.

There are a few minor corrections I would like to point out:

The second stanza should read: I wonder how I would be rather than I wonder how would I be.

In the fifth stanza, a comma should be added after: With each word I wrote, rather than omitting it. In the line below that should be: I wish to write emotions as well along the side rather than I wish to write emotions as well alongside.

In the last stanza, on the last line should read: Every time I wrote down a poem rather than Everytime I wrote down a poem.

The whole poem was beautiful. I encourage you to do more writing. I hope that making the few minor corrections didn't deter you away from any writing. I only wanted to help you.

I hope you will have many friendships, good health, and happiness.

It sounds like you were looking to go abroad for a long time. Meeting new people in a different land and getting to know their culture sounds fun.
As for me, I would like to see what it's like to live in a different country, but, the way things are, I would be afraid to do that. Not knowing the language, I don't think I would do well. If I got the last part of your article right, having friends and family at home doesn't make you feel like a foreigner.

Hello and Good morning to you!

I just finished reading your poem "Dear Lord, Give Me A New Start." Getting reviews is important, so I decided to give you one. I am not a professional reviewer but knowing how your poem has impacted me would be good for you to know.

I have been down in places like this where I knew God was a forgiving God and yet I thought my sin was too much for God to handle. It was nothing major but, at the time, it seemed major to me. I was struggling with depression at the time. People were telling me to do things for other people and my depression would go away. When the depression didn't go away, I felt like I was a failure.

We are never failures in God's eyes. I am glad He loves us with all His heart, mind, and soul. He will never leave us nor forsake us. I took my depression to the Lord in prayer. When I got done praying, my depression lifted. I knew then that everything would be okay.

I encourage you to keep writing. You expressed in detail the feelings that were felt. I could feel the emotions behind that.

I hope your days are filled with blessings, friendships, and happiness.

I just finishing reading your short story entitled, "The Weaver's Tale", and I would like to give you a review. I am not a professional reviewer but I know that reviews are important to me as I hope it is to you, too. Reviews help you to be a better writer.

I enjoyed the following lines:

Once upon a time, in a small village nestled in the lush valleys of India, there lived a skilled weaver named Raj. He was known far and wide for his intricate designs and colorful tapestries.

One day, Raj received a special request from the king himself. The king wanted a tapestry depicting the beauty of the kingdom and its people. Excited for the opportunity to showcase his talent to royalty, Raj eagerly began his work.

Overjoyed by the kings praise, Raj returned to his humble abode, grateful for the opportunity to share his art with the world. And as he looked out over the village that had inspired him, he knew that his legacy would live on through the threads of his tapestry, weaving together the stories of his people for generations to come.

Leaving out the word there, before lived would make the story sound better. Then, The king wanted a tapestry that would depict the beauty of the kingdom and its people, rather than the word depicting.

It should read, As he looked out over the village that had inspired him, he knew that his legacy would live on through the threads of his tapestry. This would help your story to flow better. I hope you don't mind me pointing those out to you.

Hello and Good morning to you!

I finished reading your poem "Promise and Hope.", and I want to do a review for you. I am not a professional reviewer but I want to let you know what an impact your poem has on me. To me reviews are important; they help me to grow as a writer.

Yes, I agree, the world is in a mess. I like how you wrote the last paragraph, which is as follows:

Alas, times ahead may become too difficult for us to cope,
Yet I still hold onto that bright glimmer of promise & hope.
To you oh lord, I owe my all for your son who you unselfishly sacrificed.
The truth, way, & life I shall always trust in is my savior, Jesus Christ.

Bringing hope to those who don't know Jesus is the best gift anyone can have. Jesus is the strength that gets me through each day. Even though the world tries to get rid of any optimism I have, I still have that glimmer of hope.

I encourage you to keep on writing. Your writing inspired me and others should get inspired too.

I hope you are blessed with many friendships, good health, and happiness.
