Review of He Said, She Said  
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  
Rated: 13+ | (5.0)
You know you could have a career as a stand up comedian. The natural flow of your wit makes the reader think that it really happened the way you remember it, and the humor comes in with the wife punctuating the "truth" of the matter.
You know; in my opinion; the emotion here is one of resignation. It's gotta be done and you're determined to get it done with as much grace as possible.
The form and structure of your piece is cool, the stanzas are used like a precise tool.
The rhyming is an asset to the flow of this piece.
The pace is slow and steadily leading to what I consider the punch line. Keeping the audience under your spell. That's what every writer wants to do and here you do an exceptional job of it.
As per your attention to details, the grammatical landscape is clear as a bell.

Review of The Dare  
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  
Rated: E | (5.0)
How can it be that you read my mind?
The "dare" you speak of motivates me so often and then "I write." I do believe any writer, or one who enjoys reading will be inspired by this short but to the point challenge.
The muse; Miko; peaks the curiosity of the reader.
The form and structure is uniform and the stanzas tell a part of the whole story which is wrapped up in the last line.
This feels prosaic in nature and there is a natural flow to it that the reader picks up on and looks forward to the end result of "the dare."
The pace is slow and steady. There's no sense of rushing, because one knows that in the end it will all come to be.
Grammatically your skill shines through, paying attention to such as this gives the reader an even smoother read.
You know what makes a good story and that's the truth!

You have a complete story here.
A good hook, middle and end.
Everything is wrapped up in a compact package that the reader understands and would recommend to any writer to read.
It's all about new years resolutions and the sticking to your guns to accomplish the goal.
Turning your back on the temptations, you dig in and head into the next day, determined and resolute.
The form and structure fits well. A complete story in just 121 characters, that's amazing and worthy of praise.
Flow is as fluid as the action going on in this piece.
The pace is slow and imagery filled. The reader knows what is coming and prepares him/her for the climax.
Grammatically speaking nary a jot no tittle is visible and that's the icing on the cake.
No suggestions for improvement are needed.

Review of White Water Life  
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  
Rated: E | (5.0)
What a rush!
The current was strong.
The foils and toils of life are represented here.
A struggle is going on and yet you are determined to finish the race.
The imagery is amazing and the reader is taken on an emotional race against life.
The form conforms with the criteria laid out in your notes.
There is a sense of determination to navigate this life and a will to not give in along the way.
The rhyming scheme lends a smooth flow.
The reader takes a lot from this piece.
The pace is not a race.
There is nary a jot nor tittle gone awry and in the end the reader feels like he has run the race and left with wanting more of the story.

The snow was all the show.
It took it's frigid control.
There's determination to go,
In the end 'twas stop and go.

Optimism was high,
Hope took a big sigh.
A skating rink for cars,
Better tighten down the track bars.

All this found in a rhyming clinic.
The form and structure is strong.
The rhyming scheme is perfection,
Creating a graceful flow.
Present here is a ballad, a tribute to the snow who holds sway.
Through it all the pace is much like the traffic, slow.
Who could find a grammatical snafu anywhere? Not this reviewer, as is standard fair for the author of this winter wonderland drive home.

Excellent haiku sonnet.
It has all the elements of nature, nurture, and humanity in there too.
Imagery emanates throughout the lines.
The flow is as smooth as the transitions you create from stanza to stanza.
The pace is steady on and as scenic as nature can make it.
There appears to be go grammatical snafu's; hey not even a jot nor tittle has gone awry.

You give life back to the dinosaur.
Who's kinda bitter and the reader can sense that.
A rhymin' simon adventure to be sure.
Lending a ballad like feel to this "dino" tale.
Them bones they're still living in the lines you do weave.
The flow is a smooth as silk, no worries of a paper cut there.
The pace is slow and steady, with your imagery transporting the reader back to the time dino was ruling the land.
The absence of grammatical snafu's as always is a testament to your prowess with the written word. You wield the pen and the story is etched onto the paper; one-stanza-at-a-time!

It has life to it.
It has hope to it.
It has strife to it.
It has imagery to it.
It has emotion to it; see lines 1, 2, 3 of this review.
It has a smooth flow.
It has a pace that is slow, but not excessively so.
It has an absence of any grammatical snafu's,
and that behooves this writer to say thank you.
Your note at the bottom identified the form and the structure of your piece. So therefore this review does hereby cease.

Congrats on your win. You know that I,
Found your item in the Poetry Newsletter 03/29/17.

The prompt words served as a launching pad to decry the dreaded monster within a bottle, definitely not a genie, nor an angel in disguise.
Far too many people have taken that journey and thankfully lots have emerged from it and are able to move on in life.
There is clear emotion in this piece and it is strong. Anger, despair, and at last hope.
The prosaic nature of your poem lends a smooth flow to the piece and is enhanced by a superb grammatical rendering.
The pace is slow and sensory filled, meaning the reader is not at all bored and wishing the story was over. He was there for every line, every emotion, and every man's resulting lament.
Suggestions for improvement for this piece are mute. Nary a jot nor tittle has gone awry, therefore who could utter a peep in advice for improvement. Not I, Chris, not I.

Review of Responsibility

Found your item in the Spiritual Newsletter 03/29/17
Amazing double acrostic using Responsibility as your foundation.
As a fan of acrostics, I can say your's is a clinic any reader can observe to see the basic of the acrostic.
There is emotion, passion, care and concern all rolled up in one fabulous acrostic offering.
Imagery speaks volumes to the reader and makes all things more palpable, sensory, and impact-full.
Rhyming scheme is beautiful and lends a ballad like tone to the piece.
Your form and structure are spot on.
The flow is smooth as silk, enhanced by a virtually spotless grammatical rendition.
The pace is slow and rightly so, because there is much that one must consider as this poem is really addressing a very important topic.
Suggestions for improvement are nada, and that's the truth.

This is a song of lament, and unrequited love after dumping a jerk who had the nerve to move on.
The form and structure are suitable for a song.
The flow is smooth to a point, then get's a little less due to the lack of natural breaks along the way.
Why are "breaks/stanzas" important:
1. They serve to complete a thought,
2. Indicates that you are continuing on with your story, and
3. Gives the reader a chance to take stock in what you've said and can then continue with the rest of the story.
The pace is slow and emotionally charged, which helps keep the reader glued to the "page" as they read the heart you do lay down within the lines.
Grammatically speaking you have a clean enough piece. No really glaring blemishes show themselves and the reader in the end feels like he has had a good dose of reality, penned one line at a time.

Imagery is marvelous.
It wraps the poem in words of expression that lulls the readers senses into rest.
One emotion the reader feels is peace. The words you use are soothing and "nurturing" to the heart, mind, and soul.
Form and structure are appropriate, however, a little too close together, which takes away from the flow of this piece.
One suggestion to help with the flow would to be break this down in natural stanza's. This gives the reader a moment to soak in your awesome lines and then move on.
The pace is medium and sensory filled. Nowhere in this piece is there a lull in the action, and yet neither is it a race to the finish line. It's just right for your piece to be sure.
Grammatically speaking you have a pristine landscape.
No further suggestions for improvement are necessary and you are encouraged to,

Review of Murli's Fate

Dr. Taher:

Found your item in the Spiritual Newsletter 03/29/17.

A graphic depiction of prison life in India. One mans stay is highlighted and shows the good, bad, and ugly face of incarceration. Good, in that he did find a new skill he could use. Bad, in that he appeared to have no hope of getting out. Ugly, in that the worst things mankind can do to one another is done in the prisons on a daily basis.
There is real emotion, including fear and pain as the two most dominant ones.
The flow of your piece is smooth and you have a good grasp of the grammatical that enhances the smooth flow of this piece.
The pace is slow as the reader learns more about prison life in India, and shudders, never wanting to be in that situation.
No suggestions for improvement are needed for you do an adequate and convincing job at getting your message across.

You had me at the moon. I am a moony, tis true, and your piece is full of emotion that caused this reader to cry. That's a good thing Deb, do not take it as a bad thing. It's the power of your imagery flowing so clearly.
The "toilet" thing kinda got me questioning and then I read the explanation at the end and things became clear. Much like the moon did when you finally saw it.
The flow is as clear and smooth as a finely tuned truck purring away.
The pace is slow and imagery filled, the reader feels every bit of emotion you do pour into this piece and it keeps the reader, hook line and sinker, from beginning to end.
What you have here is a "novella" in so few words, worthy of publication in any poetry magazine. Maybe Readers digest, if they still take submissions from the public.
No grammatical snafu's occur in this rendition.

So are you the therapist or the one receiving therapy? This is what came to this readers mind as the poem was read.
Either way; and it does seem to be you as the one receiving therapy; the poem is well formulated.
The emotional vocabulary allows the reader to see the introspection that is going on here, that's imagery making the reader a part of the scene.
Flow is smooth and as always enhanced by your flawless mastery of the grammatical arts.
The pace is a race, but not without the sensual fodder that keeps the reader interested.
Thanks for displaying your works here in the WdC, so others may see, learn and grow in their reviewing and writing skills.

That's the hook Deb. These conglomerates create the one thing you have to have over and over again. Then what do they do? The snatch it away like a spoiled baby throwing a tantrum. Their excuse? "Oh that wasn't selling as well as we expected, so better luck next time."
Your story kept my attention from beginning to end. You are indeed a very good writer who understands what it takes to keep the reader invested in your tale.
The form and structure are standard fare, lending to the readers ease of reading through this at an an even pace.
The reader can feel the emotion you lay out for them to sense with your imagery. Euphoria, concern, happiness, sadness, loss and hope for the future. Wow!
There appears to be no visible snafu's, grammatically speaking and that's always a good factor from the readers point of view.
Nary a suggestion for improvement is needed in this place.

You create an imagery filled scene that captivates the readers mind, heart, and soul. This piece is about so much more than clothespins, it's about life those pins have seen pass through their clamps. Life from infancy to adulthood.
This piece is laced with emotion, including the love that is poured out into the memories you retell. The reader can see, feel, and touch the scene you create.
Structurally sound, and grammatically pristine, little more needs to be said about a masterpiece scribbled on the page/screen, from a mind that loves the art of writing.
The flow is as smooth as melted butter.
The pace is steady and detail sprinkled from stem to stern.
No suggestions for improvement are needed here and that's the truth!

Review of De-Congestion  
In affiliation with SIMPLY POSITIVE GROUP  
Rated: E | (5.0)
Deb:
Just three days ago the congestion was reversed.
Rhonda was and I wasn't, now I am and she's getting better. She read it and can identify with it too. That's imagery that connects the reader and keeps him/her invested in the story.
I like the correlation to the traffic and the re-connecting with one another after it all blows over, as well as the rain coming and going. The hope clear skies and sinus's all around is injected in there too.
You did a great job combining different situations into one poem and it's a top drawer offering to be sure.
One thing I noticed in the second stanza.
It sounds like it is in past tense throughout except for the "plop". Did you intentionally place the word plop or did you intend to use plopped which will make that stanza run smoother as a past tense injection.
Rhyming scheme is amazing and lends to the natural flow you create overall.
The pace is slow and builds momentum toward the end as the pressure lift's and at last the reader can breath again.
Aside from the aforementioned second stanza, further review indicates you have a flawless grasp of the grammatical matters involved.

Review of Ode to New Year's  
In affiliation with SIMPLY POSITIVE GROUP  
Rated: E | (5.0)
The acrostic anchor ephemeral,
necessitated this writer to "google it"!
Then upon reading it the words took on a whole new light.
The New Year is about to be rung in.
The reminiscence of the past is quickly reviewed.
The form and structure are a firm foundation.
The flow is smooth, enhanced by a grammatically seamless outlay.
The pace is slow and methodical as the reader is taken on a tour of the past and ushered gently into the new year.
Who could make any suggestions for improvement. Mayhaps on, if you will, a pop-note defining the meaning of the anchor for your acrostic would be nice.

Ah the monotone, drab day-to-day.
How will it every end. What do you say?
The tone is set and the reader can feel it.
There seems to be a little hope in the end by the gift of writing to take you away!
Your acrostic adheres to the form well.
This writer can see skill and experience here.
The flow is like a gently roiling spring.
The pace is slow and monotonous, in keeping with the theme.
Grammatically speaking nary a jot nor tittle has gone astray. Hooray!
Overall impression: Based on the title, you really nailed the feeling of that in the body of your acrostic.

This is a good story and for him to become a Christian is a good thing too.
There is human emotion in here which the reader can feel and thereby be invested in the story.
There is imagery that places the reader in the scene.
All of this is indicative of your strength with the written word.
The flow is just a little choppy, due to some parenthetical occurrences that are not spaced properly. It's the ingredients you listed, a mere space and comma after each one will enhance the flow of it.
The pace is pretty slow at first and then picks up the speed as the story progresses.
Grammatically speaking, I'd suggest you "edit" your item in the text box you originally typed it and at the bottom click the spell check button. There is just some minor snafu's that the checker will catch and suggest the proper spelling.
Overall you have a good story and serves as a launching pad for future forays into Dillon's adventures as the invisible man.

Simply Positive Group has been a place that I've come to over and over again because they were one of the first groups to welcome a newbie like me way back when it was needed the most.
myspace just went whacky and I needed a place to post something that the Lord led me to write. In fact it was the first thing I ever posted on this site. It was long and it turns out, it is now the "book" I use to write my blogs in. My heart will always be with the SP and so will my review association. In fact this marks the 1st of 10 more reviews I will be doing to mark my 4,200th review since being on the WdC. Sorry for the long personal part of the review, but here goes!
Your fund raiser forum here is well organized.
The time frame is clearly indicated and the reader has time to plan his/her activity in the cause.
There is no doubt about how much one should bid in the beginning and the prizes are well worth the bidding.
The flow of your forum is smooth and the pace is slow as the reader surveys the numerous packages and weighs in on the one that strikes their fancy.
Grammatically nary a jot nor tittle has gone awry.
Here's to millions and millions GPs for the cause!
