I love reading songs that people have written. The only problem is that you cannot HEAR how it is supposed to sound.

What I love about this song is that it creates great images (show don't tell), captures the beauty of Autumn very simply. You wrote it very well, choosing simple words and phrases that describe Autumn perfectly and also paints a picture.

My favorite part:
"In the autumn of life love can still shine bright,
Together we stand in the fading light,
Our wedding rings glow
And to the world show
Autumn love, matured, is a wonderful sight."

I really think that it's poetic and captures the love of two people joined in marriage.

Great job!! =) Write on!! Really, this was great and I only wish I coudl HEAR it (besides reading it outloud to myself lol)

Your Work's Title: The Promise

*Thumbsup* Great imagery
*Thumbsup* Great flow/pace
*Thumbsup* Great wording
*Thumbsup* Great story idea and title

*Frown*Questions/Confusions...*Frown*

*Cut**Paste*Editing...*Cut**Paste*
 
*Bullet*If I understood the story right, it's about the Holocaust...so I don't really see the description fitting.

Overall Impression...
I really liked it--until the ending. It saddened me. As soon as I red the paragraph about the new job, I was like "Uh-oh this can't be good..." lol
I thought you did a great job at showing this from a child's view but also explaining it so we all could understand.
Great, great, great job!

Another great job.
My favorite part was this line : "It is nothing but mental torture
Like suicide"
It was simple but powerful!
You did a great job on delievering the horrible life homeless people have. You should do another poem about a homeless person rising above poverty...be interesting to see your take on it!

Great job!
Write on!

You Wrote: "...livingroom..." two words i believe

I thought you did very well on taking a simple/common problem and makign it your own. I have never read script before, mostly beacuse they speak and the action is written at the same time so it distracts me, but i liked this a lot.

Great job!

I thought this was a very good, sad, and emotional piece that makes the reader "touch" you or you touch them. It was sad, heartfelt. I can recall tiems when I said the same thing about my father; my father acts the same way, trust me. And it was difficult to grow up with that. BUT, you did an amazing job and it's very well writen!

I like the idea--it's pretty cool. Although I'd hate to be the one to pick a winner! lol!

Suggestions: Add some color or something to the top to make it more attractive. Just spice it up and it'll be great-er!

Review of Writing (A story)  Open in new Window.

Since you're my first entrant I thought I'd review your entry real quick!

Errors:

"He mind was swirling with ideas and he needed focus."
He-->his

"For the space in the paper was reserved for final sentence in his tale."
for THE final

" He felt a new sense of joyous;"
I believe it should be joy

I LOVED the "nest" theme.
I loved the part about the snow and the "beings"--that was great!

All in all, a great read that left me calm and relaxed! I really liked it!!

*Balloon1*What I Liked...*Balloon1*

 
*Balloon4*Good story idea, easy flow.
*Balloon4*You did well on the "show don't tell" can created feelings that the reader, aka me, could feel and actually placed myself in Brandy's position.
*Balloon4*I liked this line, it provided a good visual: "...she ran twisting and turning between the kiosks like a wild rabbit trying to elude a hungry hound."
 
 
What I Didn't Like Or Corrections...

 
*Balloon3*You wrote:"Oh, yes, and believe me, I'm going to be watching for him too. As she walked through the parking lot beside the guard, she thought, I'm going to be a lot more aware of whoever is, or isn't, around.
My suggestion: Add a quotation behind "too" and a comma before it.

*Balloon3*I felt the ending came too soon or that it was rushed.



*Smile* Thank you for allowing me to read your work. I really enjoyed it. Please remember these were just my opinions and you can ignore them if you choose so! *Smile*

Review of Holding You Close  Open in new Window.

A really sweet and romantic piece that clearly shows your love for that woman...
My favorite line is: "The stars, guiding our evening passage
Amid dark, moonlit skies and cool, wispy air;
Our purpose to spend the night holding hands..."
It's really easily and beautfully written.
Keep up the great writing!

A very sad and emotional piece. Although it can bring much healing in knowing that your mother and aunt are in heaven and happy instead of suffering here. As much as you miss them, you'll see them agan someday and that can be very helpful in healing.
I like the contrast of being in the dream and feeling your mother and aeverythign to waking up inher absence.

Good write!

Review of My Plea  Open in new Window.
Review by Hidden Writer Author IconMail Icon
Rated: 13+ | (4.5)
A really emotional, sad, and hopeful piece. It's always interesting to see a writer use their most emotional times in writing. You've done it really well.
Two things I wondered about in your poem:

"Please put and end to my anguish filled sorrow"
-->should it be put AN end?
"Why is our home seem like the last place you want to see?"
--->should it be Why does? I didn't like this line for some reason..

Otherwise a great write!
