Rated: 13+ | (3.5)
Hi, my name is Jaye and I'm reviewing your piece on behalf of the Simply Positive Newbies Review Forum where you are listed as one of this week's selected reviewees.

First, let me welcome you to the WDC family. I hope you find this as enjoyable an experience as I have.

General Impressions: This poem is totally full of feelings. In the first stanza, however, it is unclear what the status of the person is or what the crying and praying were about. The last stanza makes one wonder.

Grammar & Punctuation: The pronoun "I" should always be capitalized.

Periods and commas should directly after the word without the intervening space.
