Review of Cat's Eyes  
Review by Joan
Rated: E | N/A (Review only item.)
Nice. Im not getting the last line. Oh well. I do wonder what makes a cat do odd things like climbing trees then next seconds climbs down in few seconds as a car is coming but not near her at all.
My cat eyes is beautifully created. Calico somebody tells me. Wonder how God can do such wonderful thing. She is good.

Review of Lost in Time  
Review by Joan
Rated: 18+ | N/A (Review only item.)
Good so far. Would love to read some more maybe later when you can tell or perhaps write it down. What is bifurcates. If it is an actual word ,what does it mean. Nevermind. Tell your.story later. Even if it was made up I would not know it cause it is a good tale to tell.

Review of Wishing on a Star  
Review by Joan
Rated: E | (4.5)
Love this. Dreams do come true if you believe in God.
There is hope for whatever is good. Wishing can be good also and believing.
Even where its dark there is light somewhere. God is always light. Dreaming is perhaps good for Him and you. When life is hard believe in God and he will help not perhaps what you want but he does answer your dreams even if its in the future.

for entry "~ Two Hugs ~
Review by Joan
Rated: 18+ | (4.5)
Yes. I always love hugs. You said your mother died seven years ago. Well my husband died seven years ago only December 14 2014. He died of heart attack. I wasnt there then but just after I was.My world had fallen apart. After that first year which everything seem to fall apart around me. Im ok now. I know he is ok cause I seen or dream him and his brother there one night. I think he passed on too quick in grief over his younger brother which died only. Four or five months before him. My mother just died a few years ago too. she was 92 and was ready to go. I miss them both and their hugs. You dont know when things so crazy in this world.

Review of Banana Jamboree  
Review by Joan
Rated: E | (4.5)
Wow. I have a sock monkey that my grandmother used to make before she broke her left arm she was left handed. It isnt really from her but I remember her making them even in nursing home before she broke her arm and later on passed but she was 97 so she lived a good life. Anyway I had emergency surgery in 2016 I didnt know I needed. It was ulcers two of them cut out. But getting back to sock monkey my sister got me one And I still have it today. I love it and remember my grandmother making dinosaurs,clowns and monkey kids in hospital. Thanks for memories.

Review of Life  
Review by Joan
Rated: E | (4.5)
Deep and beautiful. True life is what you make it to be. Got to take the good with the bad. Yea you cant have everything either. If you did you would be spoiled. God needs to be there too. My life was complete until seven years ago when my husband passed. At that time we were married forty two years with two beautiful children and for grandchildren.
Now after seven years he still never very far away. Im into my church more than I was too. Im singing too. Life is always wjat you think yea we talk about one day he may be gone but never really thought that he would but I doing ok with my kids.checki g up on me. Life is better than December 14 2014 when he passed.

Review of Winter watch  
Review by Joan
Rated: E | (4.5)
Sound good to me. Im not sure I could improve on this at all. We have had a few flying leaf days for sure. Up north I think they have had windy weather blustery conditions. We havent seen snow yet but its usually very little but up north they tend to have more.

Review of Lady Bugs  
Review by Joan
Rated: E | (4.5)
Wow this is good. One of the first creatures or insects that I taught my grandkids to pick up and wonder about. You know I never thought about ladybugs having freckles though. I do know they are one of the good insects in that they eat other bad insects as aphids. Wonder how many kids knew about that or if they did have spots that fade or goes away if water was on it.

Review of Recipe  
Review by Joan
Rated: E | (3.0)
I hope you are joking. Nobody deserves that cake. I would not eat it if I was the little sister. All I can say is you dont like this little sister very much. If this is a joke its a very bad one at that. First who would eat mud, sand,or even belly buttons or the others stuff. On a nice note the poem did rhyme.

Review of The Old Man  
Review by Joan
Rated: 13+ | (4.5)
Wow. Long story just to have a sad but beautiful ending. I suppose he was old with wrinkles and white hair yet he seemed nice and humorous at times cause kids saw his laughter. He didnt talk much which meant maybe his love had just die. My hubby died seven years ago but seems like it just happened. Yes he had known love. This is beautiful when you and your hubby were still in love when he left the earth or as in the story the old man love left him until he passed and hopefully return to her.

Wow if this is true you have quite a story. I like the pattern of the night before Christmas. I like the cowboys....head. Its no wonder you didnt have a heart attack right there. If he did all that he wouldnt be your husbands friend for long. I hope your husband come back soon but gee I would be hesitant of anyone that come in too not for days but more than a couple of years.

Nice poem.Love CHRISTMAS and its origin. That of Mary ,Joseph, and baby Jesus. The baby wrapped in a manager in a stable. A tale told by a donkey which could be imagined. Awesome. I could see Mary being tired and worn and with shepherds and wise men and angels to wait for the birth of Jesus.

Nice. It supposed to rain tonight where Im at. What is dryads and brollies. Or is something made up. I do that too. I love to imagine too. I guess they might be small animals. The poem rhymes good too. I like your title too. I love looking at birds especially.when there.are puddles in yard and you are watching them sip water from the puddle as if God put it there for that purpose.

Review by Joan
Rated: 13+ | (4.0)
Its beautiful. To me it has too many TOO.It may have been a mistake though. How about YOU'RE instead of your. It is a simple prayer. To me you should thank him for giving you life and any other blessings that come your way whether unexpected or answered prayers.

I love coffee especially when its cool like it is at moment although I just found vanilla ice in summer. I dont know much about the types and names of coffee though. I love the taste of coffee although some.maybe.stronger than others depending on how much sugar or splenda which I prefer and creamer.I love the line starting with The music of peace....melt. Cause coffee wakes me up fulle

Review of Beautiful view  
Review by Joan
Rated: E | (4.0)
Fantastic. It seems like you are looking a painting maybe or a beautiful mountain scene where God is the Master. First line needs a space between here and I. Whatever you are looking at it must be breathtaking cause you want to go there. Seems like you are dreaming cause you want to start again. We all wonder and hope that we are doing right thing these days.

Yes, God exist and helps too.I know too he exist for. I had.surgery I didnt know I needed. I had gone to hospital cause I was bleeding and did didnt know why. I was in there for tests but a few days later was told they took out two large ulcers. I could not believe it. My tummy was stapled and looked like a train track too. They said took out one near stomach and other near my heart.Thats was March 14, 2014. Now there is a light scar you can hardly see but. I know for a fact that God was there. Thats just one big moment or two. Now my kids watch me more closely too. Now I go as often as I can to church too and on occasionly. I will sing solo one of my favorite hymns. I didnt do that before. God is good and everlasting.

Review of Three Wishes  
Review by Joan
Rated: 13+ | (4.5)
Nice poem. Interesting that you made an old woman the one to wish three wishes. It was fitting that she would wish money youth and a man too. Good rhyme to. That was real interesting to transpose a cat into a man but for a genie it made the poem complete. If I were you I would name the old women at the end of the poem just to make it interesting.

Wow this is good a little creepy too. Title does say it all. Its alright to start a friendly conversation and end up never talking to those people again.In looking at the facts strange as they can be its puzzling results. Very dealed. Strange and mysterious ending too.

Nice. I can imagine now cause Im sitting on my favorite swing reading this. I dont have a cherry tree although I love cherries. I have oak trees which can move in the wind and the gentle breeze too. On windy days. I watch them dance and bend their braches too and fro as if they are dancing in a waltz or something.Its a beautiful piece.

Review of Lonely Times  
Review by Joan
Rated: E | (4.5)
This is good.It relates a little of my life the last almost seven years. My hubby past seven years December. It really dont seem that long now though. That first year was a long one.
I do have my daughter or son to.count on occasionally though. Yea. I agree you need.someone especially if you were married for 42 years and then suddenly you are a widow.You are right there. Since my hubby is not on earth anymore you almost have to rely on God. Besides, I do think the church is my purpose right now. I even sing by myself too. At which. I could not see seven years ago.
I am not as lonely now.as. I.thought that first year though. I do look up a lot and wonder what her is doing and if he is wondering about me still. I do love him still.but. God is my love now and I hope to see my hubby one day.
