Review of Men in Black  
Review by Daizy May

Rated: 13+ | (5.0)
Hey, this is wonderful. It is worthy of more than five stars, but that is all we can give. I love the way you worked the required words into the story.

The wry sense of humor you incorporated catches the reader and puts them into a countrified frame of mind, setting the tone of the piece. There isn't much more to say other than, Good Job!!

Sending back the auto-rewarded gps plus a few more. I need to be the one paying for reading such a joy.

Review of Three of a kind

Rated: E | (4.5)
Hi there A ghost amongst others I am reading this because it was included in the Simply Positive Newbie Forum.

It is a fine tribute to your friend who is no longer with you. Whe I read title I thought it would be about three people who were alike. I was pleasantly surprised by the fact the 'three' reffered to different aspects of your friends life. Very creative on your part.

You have done a good job. I am looking forward to what your muse will inspire you to write in the future.

I am sending back the auto-rewarded gps plus a few more thrown in for good measure.

Hi G.T.H

This is a very well written piece. It has a feeling of depth to it, not at all like a fluff piece.

Not only are the words woven together nicely, but the rhyme and rhythm make this poem flow along without a hitch to the end.

I hope you are finding our home here a good place to curl up and write. I look forward to checking out more of your work.

As you probably know by now, this piece has been included in the Simply Positivies Newbies Forum. I'm glad you have joined the WDC family.

This poem using your handle as its title is quite descriptive. You have compared love to the flitting about of a dragonfly. Here for a bit and then moved on to somewhere else.

Even though this is a nicely written poem, I hope it is not indicative of your experience with love.

Good job!!

Hi I am reviewing this piece for the Simply Positve Newbies forum. Welcome to the family.

This is a well written piece. It is very believable. You have created a story the reader can become invovled in. There are a couple places that need editing. In the last paragraph of the first part you need to add the word 'to' into the phrase 'pretend not (to) hear'. In the first paragraph of the last part the word 'worse' needs to be 'wore'.

You have done a good job that only needs a couple of edits. I'm looking forward to reading moreof your writing.

I'm sending back the auto-rewarded gps plus a few more.

Hi there Lew Welcome to the Writing.Com family. I am reviewing on behalf of the Simply Positive Group.

You have penned feelings and questions that come with the loss of a love. Poetry is a good way to express those feelings. The rhyming pattern is followed perfectly, but the rhythm is a little off. I know that sometimes rhythm is not a priority in writing. For me it usually is, so that is why I mention it.

I'm glad you are here, providing us with new material to read and experience.

Hey tattsnteeth I love this picture of America celebrating the 4th of July. You have included all the elements of a typical family picnic. I know it is winter and cold and freezing outside, but it is always the right time of the year to remember and appreciate. The last line can apply to any time of the year and any holiday and any celebration. "Simply Americans enjoying tradition"

Great poem!!

Hello Jade Peterson It's always good to have someone new join our WDC family. I hope you will find your niche here.

You have told us of a disturbing dream using mental pictures and imagery. Soon light overcomes the dark and it seems you face your fears. It is nice to read of positivity. So many now only write of the dark.

Thanks for letting me know that someone else looks for the light.

Hello there Sherri, ~WhoMe???~ won a review for herself and one each for two friends in the Knightly Holiday Auction. She chose you for one of them.

What a positively positive poem. You tell us to follow our heart, chase our dreams and let love for our brothers be our inspiration. Wonderful advice!! And you give us that advice in a poetic manner. Just what is needed as we start out on a brand new year.

Oh, SHERRI GIBSON , what a poem full of regret. How sad that all the wonders of life went unnoticed. I hope that since this was written, time has been set aside to appreciate all the pleasures which come along.

I like the repeat of the phrase at the end of each three-line verse. It emphasizes the theme of this poem.

Good job, my sweet!!

Hey Harry Even though there are spots where this didn't flow as easily as I would have hoped, it is a wonderful poem. There is a loose rhyming pattern that fits pretty good.

I got a good chuckle from this. My brother is here. I read it to him. He grinned pretty big too. He said he knew that puberty was going to hit someone before I got to the end. We both enjoyed this immensely.

Hey there ♥Hooves♥ Congrats on your inclusion in the selected reviews for Simply Positive.

What a beautiful tribute to your mother. You have a reminder of her in the flowers that blossom each year. Touching!

Being one for strict rhyming the words 'far' and 'stars' bothered me a bit. However, the beauty of the sentiment in this poem
makes it okay.

This brings to mind the single daisy I found in the field in November at a time I needed to feel special. Thanks for that memory.

I love daisies

Hey there, I like this little island in a 'sea of hubbub' you have created. Dreaming on a mall bench isn't something everyone can do. It sounds like you do a good job of it.

You let your reader travel with you on your journey to serenity; serenity that is produced by thoughts of a loved one.

The rhythm of this piece is one steady flow. You don't change gears with a stop and a start. You just ride the flow smoothly to the end. I like that.

This is a good one!!

Review of Be my everything

Good morning Chris, at least it is when I am writing this.

You have opened your heart in this poem of love. That is one of the greatest gifts a person can give someone.

When I first read this, I didn't like the phrase 'makes my heart flutter.' I thought is sounded a bit trite. But upon reading again, it makes perfect sense. That phrase describes how a person feels when love is blooming into it's fullness.

I like the use of bold letters for the beginning letters of each line in this acrostic, with the rest of the letters italicized. It has a unique look.

There are a couple errors to attend to. In the first two lines, the word 'your' should be 'you're'. And I think the word 'with-in' should be written without the hyphen... 'within'.

This is a wonderful poem expressing how you feel. May it touch the one you love.

*Xmastree*

Hello Miguel, You have my deepest sympathy. We also had a mini-daschund which we raised from the time she was 6 weeks old. She too, is no longer with us.

This is a wonderful way to, as they say, 'get it all out'. The pictures you included are precious. I'm sure looking back at this piece wil bring you much comfort.

Since it is impossible to send real flowers, here are some gps instead.

Hey, way to go!!! I admire your adventuresome spirit. You went after something you wanted and ended up having the time of your life. Although, I suppose you didn't get much done on your laptop.

I like the style in which you wrote. There wasn't one moment of wishing I hadn't started to read this. I even chuckled at the end. I've read a lot this morning that has made me chuckle. Thanks for adding to the list.

Hi Legerdemain I like reading older pieces. I see this was posted in 2004.

What a touchiing Mother's Day story! It not only appeals to children, but to us mother's as well.

When I first scanned this story I missed the word 'nest' and thought it was going to be about a wayward child. I wondered why the child was digging up acorns. Then I missed the word 'paws'. So I was still expecting a weird child until about the middle of the story. So, I had to go back and start over again. This time I read more thoroughly.

That is when I thought, "Awww!"

Sorry to bug you again, but the random read dice seem to think I need to read your stuff. This time it is a ballad of sorts about a treasured pair of boots. They serve you through pleasant times and bad ones as well. Too bad they had to face a watery demise.

You are very versitile in your styles of writing. I like them all.

Here's another poem of yours that came up using the random read dice. You certainly do draw good mental pictures. It's almost like watching a movie.

I think you need to check your spelling of the word 'leeves'. I think it should be 'levees'.

I know this is short but what I wrote first says it all, so I will repeat. You certainly draw good mental pictures.

Review of Golden Meadow

Well, here's a pleasant picture you painted. It is refreshing to read of natures beauty. There is so much pain and despair in the world to be written down.

The imagery of the bees in the meadow is quite vivid. The flow and rhythm match the flight from flower to flower. And I see you mentioned a daisy in there. That should gain an extra point, but 5 stars is all I can give.

I have to buzz along now!!

Well hello, I just realized I hadn't reviewed this for Simply Positive yet. Sherri picked out a good one for us to read.

I seem to be in the mood for counting words today. You did a wonderful job painting a picture of tulips popping through the snow in just 19 words. I like the simplicity with which you described this scene. It doesn't always take lots of flowery words to get the idea into someones mind.

Woohoo for a good job!!

Hey there fyn , Talk about imagery! This is full of it. The pictures you drew with words are absolutely vivid.

Sometimes, as the saying goes, less is more. The snapshot of each side to winter is given in 47 words(I counted them). And each description leaves a clear picture in my mind.

Using the blue color also puts me in the 'winter mode'.

Excellent work!!!!!

Hey Just an Ordinary Boo! Thanks for the chuckle. I mean it. I chuckled right out loud.

Having those monstrous yellow teeth actually be.....well I won't say it here(don't want to ruin it for others). But anyway what they really were was very chuckle-producing. And the picture you included at the end was, for lack of a better word, kind of yucky.

Thanks for the fun reading.

Review of LIFE DREAMS

Well, I like this.

If I am reading correctly, this was written in 2003. I enjoy reading older items poets here have written.

You take us through the dreams of life from childhood to the final exit into His presence. Sometimes it's nice to read simple, to the point poetry. Lofty words can be nice, but they often cloud the intent.

This is a very enjoyable read.

Hey, Shaara , this poem reminds me of my dad. I have always been Daddy's little girl and I am now 58 years old. He even introduces me that way. I can remember asking my mother if she wouldn't rather wait for dad to dole out the punishment. Didn't she get tired of being the one to always have to handle it?

This is not much of a constructive review, but this piece doesn't need one.

Thanks for the stroll down memory lane. *Smile*
