Your royalty families are so endearing, Megan. Ginger, again, has a thorough effect. Romantic, fun- loving writing that warms the heart. Nobody, I think, goes away depressed once they read something by Denise Sinn! I'm glad that these kinds of items are on writing.com. With the way the world is situated today, much too much sadness goes around, and we need more happy endings. I just love your writing style. Stay true to your art! Thanks for asking me to share my opinion of this with you.
Eery and filled with haunting words. I really liked your description in this poem. You came up with it all! It was colorfully and maudlin and did justice to the others that were featured in this week's Poetry Newsletter. I couldn't help but wonder what you would think of my sig with the way this poem moves. Coincidence perhaps. But spooky for me.
This is a very interesting poem. From the standpoint of magic, it takes on a phantom of the "grey lady" that is very intriguing. I liked your rhythm and rhyme and the journey that I took through the poem. The reader rises above the poem and finds the mystery behind the castle and the gate by the end. It is quite soul-searching.
I think you were very candid in this poem. Your intentions were to "inform" us and you made a good point. I think it WAS a kind of romantic poem, and was featured in this week's Romance/Love Newsletter because of that. I wasn't sure of the title. Is the narrative "lonely" because it was not a long relationship? Is the narrative longing for the future with "a new-found friend"? This was even, you might say, philosophical, in it's measure of worth. I liked that. Very good.
A marvelous piece of paperwork. Detective work can be filled with details to make it work, and this passage does so. I find that your stories are always closer to the heart than many of them get on WDC even in a clear-cut gruesome murder item. I like what you did with style in this piece and your simple use of quick suspense catches us by surprise and informs us so well of what is going on in the scenes. I think detective work is the hardest thing to do, and I commend you for really effortlessly moving WDC ahead with it. Featured in a Mystery Newsletter, this was an A+++++. Best to you, Joy. Always a pleasure.
Good stuff. I almost thought I thought I saw "Garfield the Cat" with his foresight and camaraderie roll through this piece. It was clear- cut, descriptive, suspenseful, and humourous in it's style. I liked those things. Eventually, your piece beocmes a good mystery. Nicely done and a feature for a Mystery Newsletter. Best Regards.
There is more to this poem that meets the eye. I think you have a statement here that goes beyond the simple form you used. I liked what you said and your attempt at poetry for the first time here is an excellent example of what one can do if he tries. Words are just words, and I really liked the line "There's only so much damage you can do with your tongue". Life deals us a tough set of cards, and when we begin to write about it, we must be ready to grab for the wild cards to keep ahead of the game.
This is a piece of work filled with description and jollity. I really liked the setting and the characters and the way you used the language to get your scenes across. Language barriors can be crossed in our writing to make a piece more real, and I think you attempted to do this, and more or less succeeded. It was flashy, and had country flavor to it. I liked
it.
This piece has given us real food for thought. I think on this, and want to really commend you for coming up with something many of us wish to do and
yet do not. Have you ever heard the sayihg, "Tommorrow is the first day of the rest of our life."? I lived by the method in time of trouble and despair, and came to give every effort to living for the future, where I could start annew. Thanks for the provoking item.
I have always felt your bond with God and the universe around us gives us such wonderful food for thought. This is true, as well, in your new item here
about "calloused eyes". I liked the scientific attitude of showing us in a natural way, the problem of your eyes and then comparing it all to the world's predicament. Life comes with such hardships that you speak of, and God does wonderful things for us, if we let him. Thank you, Kenzie, for admitting this to us, and making me think on it in such an interesting way.
I kind of got into this, even though it was language that took it to the extreme. Pretty appropriate for the situation in which you created. I noted this piece in the Romance/Love Newsletter. It is frank, but moves a tad slow. I still think it
is a good item.
This is a great little poem. The bawdy hoax performed, the deed done. You have said much with a grand parade of words and given us food for thought in a much needed way. Who is going to break the language barrior and give us a civil tongue? Who will show us the leader's path? Who will give us the match-play you have shown here? In a nutshell, omeone like a WDC writer like yourself, who has given us a little play of words. The press will speak, the time will go down. Now is the hour.
Thank you Joy for writing this. In this poem, I found a great inner peace. The lines "did not run so analytically" as I said in one of my poems once, for you in this, and it comes across with a much needed message. I love the attitude you base your poetry on. It is intelligent, so civil, gives us the emergence of a great new poet here at WDC. You look as though you are coming out of the light, on stage, a little shy and yet being applauded like rain.
Best Regards.
I thought I would return the favor and review something of yours. I ran into this item by chance, and want to comment on how "you have come a long way." It appears as though you have, and that spiritually God will find you a good good place in life. I hope this happens for you. Your explanation of your life and hardships was hard-found and nicely portrayed. I love to hear about autobiographical moments in life, whether it be in factual notes or in poetry or prose. May each day find you in the palm of God's hand. Best Regards.
Written with flair, excellently executed. In with this week's feature items in Romance/Love. I liked the irony of the last line. Much to be said with characters who speak with authority and give us room to breathe. Best Regards.
I loved this poem. It was touching, thoughtful, well-seasoned, fragile, universal. Without the motivation of poets in life, perhaps, nothing would be solidly that "dance with words". You have given me a reality check, here. I thought of how I am at times marooned with my inadequacies and struggle to make sense of what I have written. Thanks for sharing this. I was happy to visit your Portfolio.
Best Regards.
An excellent poem, really. I loved the sensuous, up-beat glamour of this. It has "stance" and the subtlties outweight the obvious icons, which is very good. The last stanza is a great move for you. It gives room for conscious discovery with the poem, and examines the poem all in one shot. A great feat, giving this poem a great rate/review. Best Regards.
Frequently, you had written about Princesses and Princes. But this has such a unique twist. To have the dead Princess speak in the first person, is very personal and suspenseful until the end of the piece. She has such lovely traits and is detailed with wonderful description. The ending is so nice. The
two of the them. The child. It is all again a very Megan Rose story, with a good,wholesome, happy ending. Very brilliant. Best Regards.
Yes, yes, yes, you have the "healing" in your blood. It is so extremely relaxing to read you. I'm a bit embarrassed and I DO hope you won't mind my raving on--these writing.com days I own are precious to me, and your time might be but I can only say, "I just cain't put you down!". You are absolutely suspenseful to my mind, and you display a deep lead on handling something which may be akin to a younger mind which needs enriched it. Well-done so far, Megan. Good stuff!
This poem has great effect. It is lithe like and evolves with good flow. I liked the line breaks you decided on and the challenge you proposed with leading us to 'angel'. The movement of the poem relies on some rhyme and I apologize for not recognizing the rhyme scheme but it is a good one. Fresh, a good mix.
What can she not do, but this? She, the fragile poem?
Excellent cat-tale. Saw it featured in this week's Mystery Newsletter. I liked your style with felines, which was what was discussed this week. It was clever and coy. I think you followed up on all your clues and had a nice suspenseful flow. The best think about it was the cheeky humor. It was done with finesse. Good item. Best Regards.
Brilliant again. I thought I saw reflections of a great man here, and yes your angle with "defeat" describing the man while administering to this "fragile puzzle of mortality" is a knock-out. I just love your poetry. Visit my Port anytime.
Best Regards.
Oh, such marvelous lines! I totally understood his poem, it had strength in its body and the value of this poem is immeasureable... brilliant item. It was not phoney, it was realistic and glances like this give us time to think of life "like the wind in love". Lovely. Best Regards.
I really enjoyed your mix of mystery with this piece. I always feel that description makes a mystery great and done with poetry here it has a great quality. Your lines are indeed haunting and misty and make the reader feel the alllusions have a good method to it. Imagery and specific words key into the theme. Best Regards.
This poem I think purposely uses abrupt phrases to make their point. I see politics, I see loneliness, I see metamorphosis, and that first stanza which explains your idea of the first person, I believe. The poem has a nice means to an effectual end. It is just long enough to become catchy and very original. Well-done!
Best Regards,
