Review of First drum set  
Review by Dr Perry Ride
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  
Rated: E | (5.0)
Hello Kare!

Loved your poem.
The poem is written in 19 lines (6+7+6) mostly following aaabbb form.
Auditory imagery is used here which is the fuel to it.

I wonder what he is doing with the drum set right now. It rides the reader down through the old lane of childhood memories. 😁

Thank you for such a good poem.
Perry.

Review of Reflection  
Review by Dr Perry Ride
Rated: E | (5.0)
Hello again!

Wow, you have used an image as your poem. Looking nice but the font size is a little small for me. 😁

The best part is the first and the last lines -- that's a palindromic poem! Actually, the whole poem is a palindrome and that too around the word "reflecting" in middle-- irony. Written quite smartly.

I hope every reflection may bring us inspiration and every inspiration may reflect us.

Hello Maryann!

First of all, the color you have used for this vibrant poem full of zest is very appealing. The used a lot of imagery and thus takes the readers into a whole new world.

Glorifying nature hmm..Good work. Impressive.

Review of I KNOW NOT  
Review by Dr Perry Ride
Rated: E | (4.0)
Hello there!


I came across your "review my port" and found this.
The title: "I know not" is attractive.
The poem reveals about the person who is in love yet confused.
I hope the lover will come back soon.


Keep writing.

Hello MC Gupta!


"Parents or Foes" is so related title. 14 lined with abab rhyming scheme. Parents always wants their children to have a better life than them but they often go too far.

Nice, both sides views are shown.

Hello Zeke!

13 lined poem is written in free verse.

"If you were only perfect" is so true. The narrator accepts that man is not bound to be perfect but can do mistakes with he admires. Practicality and it's importance is shown. How he embraces the imperfect soul is the main idea.



Nice work.

It's says that the woman know her man's sighs, his mood, his body language, his glare and even his sigh. They must be knowing each other very well. Last para, however doesn't reveal whether he is leaving for a while or for forever or any other situation.
It's well written and you say you're not good at it, seriously?

Nice.

There's a mistake in the very first line. It should be :
"The story is a part of the time."

Here also:
" My mom said...." inverted commas are not placed correctly.

" child you should sleep?"
There's no need of question mark here.

Please check your work again.

Review of Farewell !  
Review by Dr Perry Ride
Rated: 13+ | (4.5)
Beyond expectations. Best poem among all your works as far as I have read.
Rhyming scheme is well kept. The flow of writing is also not broken which is a difficult thing to keep the readers involved with your work without getting bored.

Your "note" is an important part of this poem (does not support any suicidal thoughts).

Suggestions: I just felt that your "The farewell" should not have been leaving the world with one's own wish. This seems more like sucide or things alike.


Overall, well written. Keep rising. Best wishes for the contest.

Regards,
Perry.

Nostalgia! Opening paragraph gives a nostalgic feeling. How mothers make up stories so that their children may listen. She doesn't want to scold but therefore makes up stories.
The mystery hidden here is also an appreciated part. It is not sure whether there was really a figure or not, i.e., was it an imagination or the child forget as he matures up or there was literally something.

"...for she still cares" This line clearly depicts the everlasting motherly love. So relatable.

I liked your work. I am a great fan of poetry therefore I will be looking forward to more of your poems.

Hello there!
The short story is appreciable.
The content match with your title. You have portraited the story in a well lined manner. It has the flow. No unnecessary verbose. Although not much information is given about the characters, characterization is well done.

Hello feyre st.clair!

Poetry as you mentioned, has format: free verse.
Not much information is provided in the poetry and therefore the readers can interpret in a many ways.
Also, I do not understand why you gave the title name like this. If it is a part of some other article, then please mention here as a note.

Suggestions: Since it is a free verse and that too not in a much detailed manner, full stop after the last line becomes more important. Please put a full stop after last line.

Regards,
Dr Perry Ride

Review of After the Storm  
Review by Dr Perry Ride
Rated: ASR | (4.5)
Hello Schnujo!
Your poem titled "After the Storm" is an optimistic poem. It speaks the language of all the difficult times and gives hope for a better future ahead. Readers can relate it with their lives because everyone goes through difficult times at some point in their lives.
Imagery used here glorify the poem. Personification, for instance -"...leaves softly whisper kindness..." is capable enough to dive into reader's heart.
Your poem is obviously full of life and celebrates the storm rather then crying over it like you. It gives motivation and teaches how to react to the difficult times.
Loosely arranged free verse poem.

Regards,
Dr Perry Ride

Review of To My Little Man  
Review by Dr Perry Ride
Rated: E | (4.0)
Hi Ashbeth!

The poem is described by the narrator, possibly the mother or father of that "little boy".
The joy being a parent is outlined here. Although it's the last child (as planned), yet he holds an important place in the family. He is also loved equally like the first child depicting parent's love.
It is a simple and quite relatable poem to many families.

Keep writing. Good luck *Smile*

Hi Lurie !

Interseting chapters with short length. I loved reading them.
I liked the concept of Leviathan and Athora.
It is a request to please release more chapters because it is getting more adventurous.

Keep writing.
I am expecting more chapters from you.

Review of I Remember  
Review by Dr Perry Ride

Your poem is heart touching. I felt the hidden love in other's happiness above our own pain. The disease is quite upsetting yet the poem highlights that fighting spirit and gives the poem a positive aurora. It is certainly a poem to feel, far above than just to review on some basic grounds.


*Gold* My review has been submitted for consideration in "Good Deeds Get CASH!.
