Hello piewhackett1

Review of "Harry Fox (1)" 

General Comments and Emotional Impact

A simple poem about the bedtime story about Harry Fox. I remember the stories my sister used to tell me to make me eat my dinner and also to go to bed. Now I tell the same stories in a modified version to fit the kids of these days, who won't stop asking questions. But whatever the story theme be, it is always a fox. Reading this brings back wonderful childhood memories. The word choice and flow is good, there is a consistent rhythm to it and I believe this a traditional poem. Well written.

Hello Beep-Beep

Review of "The Unknown" 

General Comments and Emotional Impact

A nice poem about the trails we go through and how no matter what God is always there for us and Yes,He has a plan for us. He will do that which is right for us in the right time,all we have to do is wait patiently and have faith in Him. Well written poem. I would suggest checking the spelling of the title,it should be "Unknown" and also since you are addressing God as "You", please mention it in uppercase letters as You, or He. These are my friendly suggestions.

A very good poem so I am giving it 4 stars.

Hello A*Monaing*Faith

Review of "Memory, May I?" 

General Comments and Emotional Impact

A depth poem searching for the reasons and looking for the truth of the situations you face. I like how you thought out of the box in bringing out the words with reference to spring and made them into a poem that actually seeks for a new beginning in your life, in this case a job, just like Spring. I have been trying to get into a higher degree course and it's been two years, I can imagine the wait and worry that you have, every interview and application coming back to nothing and then finally and hopefully God will bring to us what we want in His own time. Well written.

My Favourite Lines

I love how you used May to form the questions and also to bring out the month as per the requirements.

"May I find a life worth living?
Work with a new meaning."

I guess everyone is asking this question, there should a meaning/ purpose in what ever we do or it is never satisfying,in other words as you say, not worth living.

Overall

A very good poem so I am giving it 5 stars.

Thank you for sharing your work. Keep writing!

Hello Sanita

Review of "Look With Your Heart" 

General Comments and Emotional Impact

The poem is about judging people before we even know them, just in one glance we decide who they are and that is definitely not the right way to do it. As you have written in this poem, each person in their heart are someone entirely different than the person we see and think they are on the outside. Surely we all should look at another person with our heart and not with our narrow minds. Well written.

There is rhyming pattern of the form a,a,b,b and so on. This works with the flow and form of the poem which is free verse.

Look a little deeper, look into their eyes."

Love how the first two and the last lines merge and mean the same thing.

A beautiful story about accepting Grief as a friend. I think most people tend to ignore Grief or treat Grief as an enemy but here she accepts him and thus her healing begins quicker.
