A poem about the changing of seasons and how beauty does fade. The writing speaks in comparison of beauty in nature to that in humans. Thought provoking that things are fleeting and may be value should be not be given to external things that are fleeting.

Which no-one can take
Oh no, I’ll never forget."

I honestly love the whole poem but if I had to chose, the never forget part reiterates and confirms the importance and value of mother’s love and how no matter what she will never ever forget any of it. Also the first paragraph where gives a perspective from the baby’s POV is so cute.

Hello Dr M C Gupta

Review of " DO NOT TAKE AWAY MY SONG" 

General Comments and Emotional Impact

A emotional poem about wanting to protect the one thing that matters most to the author, his song. I interpret this as the voice, the freedom to express and be oneself. One voice is one's own and cannot as you say enrich anyone else, but it is sadness and pain if and when one loses one's voice. This poem personally resonates with me and my desire to express and write and being able to do that freely here in WDC is an amazing privilege!

Hello Abjornn

Review of "Still Here" 

General Comments and Emotional Impact

Your writing resonates with me very much, as in, I feel the same, it's a new year but not much has changed. I hope life gets better for you and I hope in time you start living rather than existing as you say here. May you find joy in everyday things and hope in a new beginning.
I have been through depression so many times in my life and honestly it feels insurmountable but gratitude for the simple everyday things really help. Emotions are good and may be sadness for a while helps us appreciate the joy and happiness, but staying too much on one emotion may be the problem. And may be just may be writing about these things will help in a small way today and can amount to much release and peace in the long run.

Overall

I am giving it 5 stars.

Hello ruwth

Review of "ruwth is writing..."  "~ He Made Me Whole ~" 

General Comments and Emotional Impact

Such a beautiful written and captured encounter with Jesus. I long for such encounters with Him and am absolutely terrified of the prospect of the same. I have had similar but milder revelations and perceived presence and sense of Him in my relationship with Him but none that was this clear or vivid.

Only last week I was wondering where the initial thirst I had for everyone around me to know Jesus went and the thought that I don't even care anymore crept in. I wondered why this was, had I become so complacent, comfortable, lacking in faith or just selfish. Still working through it to be honest.

And I do believe reading your item was not an accident, it was a divine coincidence. We never know how much our writing can impact and influence someone else's life. You've encouraged me to keep pursuing Jesus with all my heart and also to continue writing and expressing myself cause we never know who may read it and be changed.

Suggestions and mistakes

No mistakes in punctuation, spelling or grammar can be found.

My Favourite part

"And He reached further and laid His Hand on my head and Love flowed through my entire being—His Love, His Holiness, His Cleansing Power."

Overall

This writing has had such an impact on me so I am giving it 5 stars. I really wish I could give more stars.
