Hello Prophet
I am gladiola and I am pleased to offer my review for your item entitled An introduction of sorts.
As a reviewer, I only offer my point of view and it is up to you to decide what fits.


*RollEyes*Concept/Premise *RollEyes*

Introducing your self and your account. While it is a great idea to do, however, the title and the brief description provided are misleading. If you will talk about this, simply say it. It is nice to know what you are about to read.

*Reading*Overall impression:*Reading*

I think it is simple and honest. It is good to share some personal things with strangers outside your circle of friends and family, using a pen name other than your real to feel free to talk about your life. It is relieving to do and you can have a lot of opinions and may be some pieces of advice.

*ThumbsUp*What I liked most *ThumbsUp*

It is hilarious that you have another account and you challenge anybody to find it out. But I have to warn you that I guess it isn't allowed! You can be sure by reading the rules.

*Magnify*Spelling and grammar*Magnify*

perfect

*Sun*Suggestions:*Sun*

I expected you to tell us more. As a reader, I wished I would know a clearer idea of what you will present in your account, not just true stories. I needed to know is it about your family? your study? your friends? what you face? obstacles in your way? These are questions that you may need to think about.

Hello Burning_Bush
I am gladiola and I am pleased to offer my review for your short story entitled No Sunshine on Sunday Afternoons.
As a reviewer, I only offer my point of view and it is up to you to decide what fits.


*RollEyes*Concept/Premise *RollEyes*

Domestic abuse. It isn't pleasant. Yeah it is bitter. As you pointed out in the title, no sunshine on such days. They are the most dreadful times anybody could ever have and form the ugliest memories anyone could have. Great choice for the title and the brief description part.

*Reading*Overall impression:*Reading*

If I was just a reader, I would feel that it is all just hitting and may be not a good story, but having experienced some of this, I think you described it just well. You described how it sounds and how does it feel. How it makes a child hate the days even if it was God's day.

You asked a question at the end, what would you do if you were ever in my place?
Well honestly, the best thing I would do is to bring a gun and shoot him, but since I can't do it, I would never speak to him again, for ruining me and destroying my self confidence, and my hope to be someone who matters in the future. It is unforgiven. You stirred many emotions.


*Sun*Comment:*Sun*

You mentioned that you are not a product of what you passed through, I agree to some extent because you do not have to be violent just because you had a parent who was violent, but you can't be a successful person, a confident person and many othr criteria others would just happen to have and you would never have. The fear the child feels would have a lifelong impact.

*ThumbsUp*What I liked most *ThumbsUp*

I loved the reality here. I don't know if this story is a real one or not, but it definitely has real situation which is domestic abuse.

Review of "Homeless Joe"

Hello BEAR
I am gladiola and I am pleased to offer my review for your article entitled "Homeless Joe".
As a reviewer, I only offer my point of view and it is up to you to decide what fits.


*RollEyes*Concept/Premise *RollEyes*

Don't judge homeless people. Your turn may come one day to be just like them. I guess this is a real keeper. This concept is unique, and the way you deal with it, throught the eyes of the homeless, is magical. There would definitely be a large audience to your piece and I love how you expressed their thoughts and feelings quite well.

*Reading*Overall impression:*Reading*

Many people really don't know why those people are this way, just begging for food and living on the streets. They think they are too lazy to work. It is a real scary idea to imagine that one could be just like them one day and it makes one stop and think about them. How hard it is to be living a comfortable life at one point and turn into a homeless person the next. It is heartbreaking to learn how they have certain bathrooms to use and can get into trouble if they use others.
You raised questions that are very hard to answer. Why don't the leaders pay attention to people like those who are part of their nation? I can't answer but I guess you changed a lot about how I see these people. Well done!


*ThumbsUp*What I liked most *ThumbsUp*

I loved the honest words here and I felt as if I was sitting on the pavement and hearing from one of them what brought him there and even letting me know about the others. Your voice is indeed too loud.


*Sun*Suggestions:*Sun*

It seems too perfect to add anything to it. Lets hope the homeless find a better future and kinder treatment, may be more opportunities to get them back to live as emplyed people a stable life.

Hello Robin
I am gladiola and I am pleased to offer my review for your Interactive Story entitled Possessed Objects, Animals and Plants!.
As a reviewer, I only offer my point of view and it is up to you to decide what fits.


*RollEyes*Concept/Premise *RollEyes*

Possessed objects. This idea is new but it seems you love it so much. You didn't use the conventional form of possessed people but you extended that to nearly everything; from animals and going to plants and even cars. Your story has a lot of potential within and can be developed in many endless ways.

*Reading*Overall impression:*Reading*

I think the story has a great deal of amusement. It is inetersting and new. You added great new possibilities, like developing organs to non human objects. You have a great imagination and I guess that you can write a story of your own of this fiction. You should really give it a shot.

*Magnify*Spelling and grammar*Magnify*

I didn't stumble anywhere.

*Sun*Suggestions:*Sun*

A lot of your stories are under the gender erotica. It is your own freedom but I want to say that many members don't use it and also I would like you to use different genres and try your hand at different types. This can enrich your skills and you will learn from it. I do not say that you should do this but it is only a suggestion that you are free to take or discard.

Hello Itchy Water~fictionandverse
I am gladiola and I am pleased to offer my review for your poem entitled THROUGH THE EYES OF ANOTHER.
As a reviewer, I only offer my point of view and it is up to you to decide what fits.


*RollEyes*Concept/Premise *RollEyes*

Looking through the eyes of another, i.e. looking through the eyes of Jesus. This is perfect as a title and together with the brief description made me full of curiosity to know what you could see. You must have seen some thing great, something different and something that changed your life forever.

*Reading*Overall impression:*Reading*

This poem is really valuable. It is brilliant and full of faith. I guess if every christian got to see through Jesus eyes, our lives would never be the same. In fact, I myself will start looking at that. There is a lot to see and a lot to learn.

The poem started from a critical and important aspect, which is looking through others eyes and seeing how we look. This put a stone in my shoes. I have many questions and doubts. Do I look arrogant/selfish/helpful? When I hear my own words, am I hurting people? Am I caring? I have a lot of thinking to do.

When it comes to looking at the eyes of Jesus, there must be even a greater picture to hear and more valuable lessons to learn. You just discovered a great fact and delivered it through an articulate poem. Hats off to you.


*ThumbsUp*What I liked most *ThumbsUp*

I loved many parts about this poem.
Could you hear the words that you spoke? very thoughtful

But it was in the eyes of Jesus that I saw my hope.
There was love that I'd never known.

Unconditional love and hope are offered by Jesus and only him.

I can no longer be the same.
My old ways are now dead

A complete change in life is what true relationship with Jesus does. He has the power to do this. I could feel a lot of meanings in your poem.

Because now, I have seen through the eyes of Life.
And through His love and mercy I am alive.

I am alive is just beautiful. I don't know how to say a lot here but this is really beautiful and has a beautiful and valuable lesson to tell.

Hello Summer Wind is Healing
I am gladiola and I am pleased to offer my review for your poem entitled Save Me!.
As a reviewer, I only offer my point of view and it is up to you to decide what fits.


When I read this poem, I feel it has a lot of potential. Loneliness is very hard and man keeps just remembering the gatherings and partying or any occasions where the loved ones would come around and feel sorry that they don't have such time any more. It is bitter and harsh. You managed to describe this very well in your poem.

But the thing that I think you should reconsider is the end. I didn't see that coming. I felt you were going on in a certain track and you ended where you never seemed to be heading. In other words your end didn't seem your destination from the beginning. The complain here was from loneliness and so you need company, but I guess the need of salvation would be feeling fed up of sin and tired from being a slave to it and feeling the need for God to step in the life.

So to sum up, you have 2 good meanings, lonliness is hard, and needing salvation and both are good, but you need to work on a better connection or clarify one of them or both in separate poems.

I know that poetry is based on feelings that I can't know but as a reader I need to know what you feel or why you see these words to be able to get your poem. I guess some more hints might be needed here.
I hope I have not been harsh. You are really doing a great job and you are an active newbie here. You write a lot of different items and this will help you be a better writer and will give you a great cghance to hone your skills.

Hello Eli Crow
I am gladiola and I am pleased to offer my review for your short story entitled Krissmiss.
As a reviewer, I only offer my point of view and it is up to you to decide what fits.


*RollEyes*Concept/Premise *RollEyes*

A real cold Xmas to a guy in a very cold cell. He doesn't even know what Xmas is, too bad! He gets his first xmas gift and a valuable one. Great!

*Reading*Overall impression:*Reading*

This story is a strange one for me. I guess you are working on a style of your one, it is going to be so different than what others write. I could feel that the writer was telling me what happened. I felt he was talking to me and I could imagine him and his voice although there was not alot of description there. I could feel how miserable he was and how lonely and cold at a time when everybody is partying and celebrates.

*ThumbsUp*What I liked most *ThumbsUp*

I was glad that Santa fulfilled his promise and sent him a gift on Xmas to make him feel happy and have someone who cares for him. It is really thoughtful and everybody needs someone to think of him. I love that!


*Magnify*Spelling and grammar*Magnify*

The story was all written in slang, not just the dialogue. I guess that it to make it sound real, as if the prisoner himself was talking to us and I guess this is nice and different.

*Sun*Suggestions:*Sun*

The story seemed lacking some information that when I reached the end, I didn't know the answers to some questions I had in my mind. I wished I knew why that man was imprisoned and was he imprisoned all his life, how come he never knew what Xmas is? What was his crime? Was he innocent or guilty? I don't know! You may need to tell us a little more about him according to how you see it.

Hello Nada Philippe (a.k.a: R.H.N)
I am gladiola and I am pleased to offer my review for your poem entitled Coffee.
As a reviewer, I only offer my point of view and it is up to you to decide what fits.


*RollEyes*Concept/Premise *RollEyes*

Trying to resist coffee. This is a strange concept actually but it sounds logic though. Many people are addicted to coffee and depend on it to make them concentrate. Many people can have a bad mood just because they didn't have their morning cup of coffee. You will have a large audience to this. *CoffeeR*

*Reading*Overall impression:*Reading*

I enjoyed reading this. It is easy, simple and straight forward. I loved the idea of making a dialogue with the coffee where each has what to say. I could feel that coffee had the upper hand here, which is true in many cases in our life.*CoffeeBl*

*BurstO* This has been amusing to read. I couldn't help laughing at that mailbox, I feel actually that it should be made into a movie or so. It is really like haunted and get resists staying in place. This has a great sense of humour here. I know how challenging writing flash fiction is and so I really think you did a great job there.

*RollEyes*Concept/Premise *RollEyes*

Passing by a cemetery. This is a sad concept that I have never read about before. I was actually so curious to read it and find out what was seen and how that felt. It must be sad but I knew there was much more to offer. This concept is a sad one but it grabbed my attention.

*Reading*Overall impression:*Reading*

The poem lived up to my expectations. I even thought you were going to merely describe it, but I was surprised to find that there was a story, an imagery, and a lot of emotions. There were a lot of details in the image, like the balloons, the girl who was holding her mother's waist and the grey clouds. I think it helped a lot in this story. I loved the questions that were raised several times as to what things or people seem to be. I felt that the story has answered my questions and it didn't lack anything. Well done!

The impact of people say. This is really a serious thing to mention because it can have a great effect. People may feel rejected or discouraged by words since words are really powerful.

I loved what you said and I do agree. I like it when people say what they think fits me best, but not if they like me with long hair or short hair. I guess we are not supposed to please everybody. We may take some pieces of advice as long as we are convinced and think they suit us but not turn our lives upside down for the sake of others. If they like us, fine and if not, then what? I think you are right!

Hello A.S. Hendra [Job-Searching]
I am gladiola and I am pleased to offer my review for your letter entitled Dear Gretel.
As a reviewer, I only offer my point of view and it is up to you to decide what fits.


*RollEyes*Concept/Premise *RollEyes*

A letter to home. This must have a lot of emotions and alot to say, yet feeling unable to transfer all of what you see to you loved ones. I can feel a lot when it comes to this kind of letters. sighs!

*Reading*Overall impression:*Reading*

I loved how Hansel here felt a lot of different feelings and I do believe these feelings are true. Hansel felt how much she missed home and her family but on the other hand she knew she had to go on with her new life. ( I considered Hansel a girl because I don't know if it is the name of a boy or a girl, but I am a girl so I feel what she is mentioning in her letter). I could feel how she missed everybody in her hometown, yet felt home with new people that she believed to be kind. Being away from home is really a great experience that has alot to offer a person. I loved that.

*ThumbsUp*What I liked most *ThumbsUp*

I loved how she couldn't say everything to her family and I knew it is impossible to print everything we see or feel at a foreign place to our family in letters. I love how she ensured them that she loved them so much and that loving the place around her didn't mean that she forgot her home.

Hello warriormom
I am gladiola and I am pleased to offer my review for your poem entitled Calm After the Storm.
As a reviewer, I only offer my point of view and it is up to you to decide what fits.


*RollEyes*Concept/Premise *RollEyes*

Waiting after the storm. What a wise theme! Learning to wait for the storm is really very hard and a lot of us really regret it when things go out of control and they say things or act in a way they know they should have never done. I think being patient and waiting till the angry situation ends is hard and needs a quite strong character to do. Everybody need to practice this to be mature.


*Reading*Overall impression:*Reading*

This is enjoying to read. I felt the experience a mother feels, when her daughter is angry and would say things that are not really meant. This must really hurt and may be it can have an ever lasting scar. I never noticed that and so what I love about your poem, Pat, is that it made me stop and think as I read it what is like to be furrous to our parents. That is really embaressing.

Review of June 3--Waiting

Hello Nikola~Loving Her Gracie Girl!
I am gladiola and I am pleased to offer my review for your item entitled June 3--Waiting.
As a reviewer, I only offer my point of view and it is up to you to decide what fits.


*Reading*Overall impression:*Reading*

This has a lot of potential. I think it is a brief idea with a lot of twists that if you ever want to expand it, it will be a fabulous work. I love the story and I could feel Dana feeling how responsible she ought to be towards her dad, that she even had to leave what any other lady of her age would enjoy. The story is great and I wish I know what would happen when she comes to meet that Bobby Joe, who seems to be an outstanding and interesting guy.

perfect

I didn't get June 3 of the title. Is it to be explained later on with the events of that drama? I hope I know.

Hello Sum1
This is gladiola and I am pleased to offer my review for your awesome poem entitled candle.

Concept/Premise *RollEyes*
A candle. *CandleG* That poem is really awesome and inspiring with a lot of witty and marvelous descriptions like a happy birthday and a dark corner.


Overall impression: *Reading*
I love how it looks like a candle and further more, I love the content itself. It is finely written and I could imagine a lot of different and contradicting images.


What I liked most : *ThumbsUp*
I chase away the
darkness in every fold
that is my favourite part where I felt so happy to read. I can imagine that beautiful candle sending out radiant rays of light everywhere.


Spelling and grammar *Magnify*perfect as usual

Review of He Cannot Breathe

Rated: E | (4.0)

Hello C. Davenport
This is gladiola and I am pleased to offer my review for your poem entitled He Cannot Breathe.
As a reviewer, I only offer my point of view and it is up to you to decide what fits
.


Concept/Premise *RollEyes*
It is a sad and heartful poem about the death of a grandfather, who the narrator felt at the funeral and how he remembered his grandfather.

Overall impression: *Reading*
That is definitely a loss and I could feel the pain he felt for his grandfather specially when he described how he couldn't feel any pat or hear any words of condolence. All what he focused on was his loss and the great impact it had on him was very clear. Well done specially for a newbie.

*Sun*Suggestions:*Sun*
There were words which I was not quite sure of their meaning, I suggest you clarify them like "To our mutual loss" who is mutual?
"two children" who is the other child?
I hope I know what they mean.

Hello Stephanie
This is gladiola and I am pleased to offer my review for your poem entitled Fate.
As a reviewer, I only offer my point of view and it is up to you to decide what fits
.


Concept/Premise *RollEyes*
A twist of fate. What a concept! Fate is really so powerful and can change the way things happen.

What I liked most : *ThumbsUp*
If fate's twisted hand did not cruelly ordain
that this is the position where we must remain

Those two lines are my favourite and they show the power of fate and how it could change lives and determine what it will be like.


Spelling and grammar *Magnify*
Oh (of)?all the things that could have been


*Sun*Suggestions:*Sun*
To be honest, I guess there is a bit of elaboration needed here, like show exactly what happened in 1968 because I am not sure. What were the consequences and how fate was cruel towards them.

Review of Oscar's Life

Hello tarabites

That is a nice poem about a lazy cute cat that is just enjoying its life, feeling lazy as it wished. I loved those small beautiful eyes that opened and closed slowly to glance at her owner. The cat is simply acting naturally and freely. I also love how the end shows that the cat cares about its own well being and wouldn't show any signs of respect and care till it feels hungry. That is a cute poem.
