I always loved the sound and concept of Shalom so I was drawn to the title. 
The rest of the poem was easy to follow in flow and meaning.
My review has been submitted for consideration in "
Wow! This is a splendid looking page of links to help WDC authors as they find their way through a variety of elements like using links, reviewing, writing, posting items etc. I like how you include video links about how to use WDC and one where one can practice using the bitem links so they can gain confidence. 
Your intro is colourful and friendly in tone with a brief statement of intent and an invitation to check out the items. I like that the links are available to free membership folks as well.
Genius! 
It seemed repetitive although read with the second it defines what it means. Just pondering. 
Oh this is a precious piece for your memoires. The authentic message is shown vividly in instances you describe in the story. I like how you weave and find the connections between your early life and now. Wonderful insights.
It adds a fun vibe.
I dove into your Daily Poem book and found this piece of inspiration. The metaphor of the rock and erosion is very effective image for taking one's time and to keep on going! Reminds me of the turtle and rabbit race. LOL
The rondeau form is a brilliant choice for the theme as it gives you the ability to emphasize the main point by repeating it, which mimics water's effect on rock. 
It is so fun to read with its flowing pace and fluid soundscape. I notice the rhyme in the second verse is not abba. I wondered if it was jsut the way of the rondeau nature.
I really like the metaphor of a stream and a world to illustrate literacy. The free style flow fits your personal feeling and opinion of the topic and I like the fanciful ideal vibe. The verse about the different characters and how you invite them all in is cool! I like the alliteration in the action of verse 2 as I can really imagine that image of the writer. 
In verse 3, I think that the word "your fantasy" should be "my fantasy" in keeping with the personal I voice. 
I enjoyed reading your article and it was interesting about POE as well though your intro seems to be more about him. 
The article was well organized and easy to follow. The list of questions is extraordinary and one might wonder about them as some of the books are quite nonsensical and fun. Kids do enjoy them and they can have strange sense of the ridiculous as well. He made it an art form. 
Happy Holidays Jeannie! Thanks for celebrating "
Wow! Thank you so much for sharing your personal memories. I was drawn right into the experiences of your life and can imagine the power and love it took to go through the ups and downs, especially with losses so early in life. I can't imagine losing a mom so young but my dad was ill for most of my growing up, so change and trauma, as you say can be part of all lives. I was very moved by your expression. It was really inspiring to witness how life unfolds and when folks keep choosing to find the light in it all. 
Your short two verse expression encapsules the story of Sampson concisely and it was fun to read with its use of rhyme and repeated letter sounds like "s", "f", "d" etc. I like the simplicity of two word lines and vivid verbs like "pruned" and "riddled" add vibrancy and add to the strength of tone and abrupt sound. Good for you for using a synomym for "hair" in the last verse. I can so imagine the long curly hair and the imagery of being pruned. Well conceived vision.
Hail W.D.Wilcox! 
I enjoyed being drawn into this short episode. The atmosphere and main character is well set and I could imagine the man slurping the soup. I liked the way you describe his skin. The waitress reaction and limp at the beginning made me curious and the twisted ending was evocative and explained a lot. EWWWWW! That it was in his soup was unpleasant and made me wonder if he knew it was there and certainly had me thinking he was responsible for the waitress's issue. Wow! 
The last line was a surprising ending and gave me pause to think about the character "now".
