Review of What is Hope  
Review by JustMeJayE
Rated: E | (4.0)
Hello.. I'm JustMeJayE .
I enjoyed reading your poem. Thank you for sharing it.

I hope you find this feedback useful.
Anything I say is just my personal opinion.
I'm not a professional critic, just an interested reader.


*BurstG*Overall Impression:
Hope is an odd thing is so very true. You couldn't be more right.
Your words gave life to something that too many have lost or given up on.
This poem isn't one that is simply read. It's one that makes you feel each word.
Your words are powerful and are what this world needs right now. I love it.

*BurstB*Favorite Part: The whole poem is awesome for sure but this was my fave part.
"For, it gives people strength
To do the impossible
It gives them the arm's length
To make them unstoppable"


*BurstP*Suggestions: Keep sharing your voice and words with the world.
We all need more of it.


Thank you for sharing your work. Write On, Poet *Pencil* *Notepad*

Sincerely,
JustMeJayE

~ From struggle comes strength, with strength comes courage.~

*ButtonB* Overall Impression:
Good work, way to go! I think we can all relate to this.

*ButtonO* Rhyme, Form & Flow:
I think all of it was done well and not forced. Everything connected nicely.

*ButtonV* Favorite Part:
I like the entire poem but my favorite part was this:
I wasn't created this way,
The things I do leave me dismay.
I want my life to be arranged,
So I tell you this, I will change.

Review of BITTER LOVE

I hope you find this feedback useful.
Anything I say is just my personal opinion.
I'm not a professional critic, just an interested reader.


*ButtonB* Overall Impression:
This is great writing. The title caught my eye because of my own personal experience with the "L-word"
But the what came along with the title is what kept my interest.


*ButtonO* Rhyme, Form & Flow:
Everything worked well together.
Rhyme *Check4*
Form *Check4*
Flow *Check4*


*ButtonV* Favorite Part:
I liked the entire thing but there are two parts I liked the best.
The first is: Nicholas was the only person she tried never to offend
She was by nature rough, rude and lazy but when Nicholas was near you should have seen how polite she’d pretend
See her to her best of behaviors ascend


And the second is: So she’d stare into the sky and wonder why the Creator above
Had to create a feeling and emotion such as love

*ButtonB* Overall Impression:
LOVED IT!! I can relate so closely to this myself.
Just when I thought I was beginning to lose all hope, He was there.
He's always there, never leaving our side. We just somehow forget that at times.
Stay strong my friend and have faith in the Lord. Keep sharing your beautiful work.


*ButtonP* Favorite Part:
"Don't worry my child,
I am here to be your strength,
I hear your cry and I will be your rock."


This is his promise to us. I know He's been there by my side during
Times when I was close to giving up. It was his strength and love that pulled me through.


*ButtonV* Would I Change Anything?:
Not at all. It's perfect the way it is.

I'm not a professional critic, just an interested reader.


*ButtonB* Personal Impression:
This is a serious subject you chose to write about.
KUDOS to you for doing that.
The topic of addiction, regardless of the kind, needs to be talked about a lot more.
Too many times lives are lost, families and communities are destroyed from addictions.
The stigma that has been placed on addictions/addicts from ignorance makes it harder
For people to come forward for help because they're embarrassed or are afraid of being
Judged and not helped. That should never be the case. Sadly it is.

I think you did an excellent job at getting your point across and making a statement.
Well done.


*ButtonP* Would I Change Anything?:
Not at all.

This made me excited for Spring. I enjoyed reading this, good job.

With sweet bird songs and everything. That was great =).

*ButtonB* Personal Impression:
The title caught my eye instantly. I think there is a lot of us who can agree with you, I do.
I'm not a major Super Bowl fan like so many others are. My brain won't sit still long enough for that haha.
If my team or my dads team is playing I'll (try to) watch. Even then it usually isn't the entire game.
I'll admit though, the commercials are the best part =).

I think you did a great job with this. Good expression.

with a game throw in for bathroom break."

*Pencil*

*ButtonG* Personal Impression:
This work hit a personal point with me.
I lost my dad in 2009. I was by his side when he died.
I think I'm still trying to deal with it, personally. Everything
feels jumbled to me when I think about him and his death.
I agree with you about despising when people tell me
"your dad wouldn't want you to feel like this."
Kinda makes me want to scream sometimes.

Keep writing, you do it well. Keep voicing your feelings too.
People want to hear what you have to say.

*CheckG* Personal Impression:
This work hit a personal point with me.
The title and description caught my eye and the entire piece held my attention beginning to end.
I was impressed with your writing.
Dealing with depression is exhausting and frustrating, from my own personal experience.
I think it needs to be talked about more, in my opinion.


*CheckV* Tone and Mood:
To me it expressed the frustration and defeated feelings that depression can cause.

*Check* Emotional Impact:
One of the best lines I think is,
"So will I feel "off" forever?
It's like these thoughts are keeping me tethered."

This feels like the eternal question, will it ever end? Will it ever let go the hold it has?
This is a topic so many of us can relate to. I think it hit right on the emotions felt.

*Check* Artistic Voice and Imagery:
The image I got from this is one of a deep, intense love story.
The heart skips a century, not just a beat. It can leave you speechless.
I like the use of the river and canyons to relate with the depths and echoes.
I think it gave more power and emotion to your words.

Review of Promised Land  
Review by JustMeJayE
Rated: E | (4.5)
Hello HuntersMoon,

I'm Windstorm and we are members of "The Poet's Place Patio" group together. I'm trying to work my way through all of the group's members, one portfolio at a time =). Lucky me, I picked you first and I am very happy I did.

I truly loved this poem. I loved the flow and style but especially loved just reading it. So many things you mention bring back memories for me. I love that!!

One of my favorite lines is
"Extravagance was a “Blue Moon,”
and plastic knives and forks worked fine."

I can relate totally to that. The entire poem was fabulous and well worth the read.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent and I look forward to reading more of your work.

Review of Accept  
Review by JustMeJayE
Rated: E | (4.5)
Awesome read!! I'm so happy that it was your poem I came across first today.

"You no longer live, but simply exist; physicality your prison.
You accept.

Broken, you find comfort in conformity; safety in ignorance.
You accept.

Beaten, you dare not raise our eyes; or your voice.
You accept that you must accept."

This was my absolute favorite part!! It's so true.
We all see this everyday in society. Some of us are this.
We need to break this spell we're in and use our own minds and voices.
Live for us, not as robots but as humans with minds of our own.

Well done poet!! Well done!!

Write On,
Windstorm
