James,

Happy Writing.Com Anniversary! Hope my comments are welcomed.

*Thumbsup* This is a beautiful testament to your faith and beliefs. I love the phrase, "it is finished". I think the meaning behind it is powerful, and shows this is the beginning and the end. Beautiful and heartfelt.

Maryann,

Happy Writing.Com Anniversary! Hope my comments are welcomed.

*Thumbsup* I liked them before you added quotes, and I like them with the added quotes! I think that you did a good job in matching the quote to the image. I saw that you used Walt Disney's twice, but it did not matter becuase it works with both images.

My favorite quote you used is "I've seen and met angels wearing the disguise of ordinary people living ordinary lives." ~Tracy Chapman. We have come across many of them here.

*Thumbsup* This is a lovely tribute to Kiya. I think that you have shown her in a positive light, and your gratefulness comes through wonderfully. If someone who does not know her reads this, it would make them want to know her.

Happy Writing.Com Anniversary! Hope my comments are welcomed.

*Thumbsup* You do a good job in showing sorrow and loneliness throughout this poem. Time passed and she is now left alone, wishing to find comfort again. It's a tough thought to process, and one I have contemplated before. What if everyone I loved had moved on? I imagine I would be in a similar state.

*Thumbsup* Sometimes, we can feel the weight of the world coming down on us. Your poem is an important reminder that we are not alone and there is always someone there to help anchor us down. Beautiful and inspiring thoughts!

*Idea* May I suggest that you add to the brief description. Many readers pay attention to that and it can draw them in. Perhaps, something like, sailing home?

Jen,

Happy Writing.Com Anniversary! Hope my comments and suggestions are welcomed.

*Thumbsup* You did a good job in showing hopelessness through this poem. It can be difficult to have others tell us what we should do in times like these. The phrase, “I know how you feel” generally comes in to play. While I think that people can relate to what other people feel, no two people feel exactly the same. You show that here.


I can't unrun them nor outsmart their evil plans
*Burstgr* Consider using outrun instead of unrun. I think it shows more desperation to get away from the emotions and situation.

But your not in my shoes feeling my pain
*Burstgr* But you’re not in my shoes, feeling my pain

Review of Where did she go?

Nixie,

I saw you highlighted on "Invalid Item, so of course I am coming over for a visit.

*Thumbsup* I totally get this! I remember when I first lost my mother, I still sensed or felt her for years. Perhaps, it was in my own imagination doing its best at wishful thinking, but I was not ready (or going) to admit that. If I did that, I might have lost my source of comfort, and the memories of what I loved best would dull and fade into the backgrounds. She is gone now. I don't hear her voice in the hallways, or smell her perfume anymore.

Heartfelt and wonderful. You are excellent in expressing yourself in these types of situations. It just stinks that you're really experiencing them.

Cynaemon,

Hope my comments are welcomed.

*Thumbsup* This just feels like pieces of my own childhood. I love your use of description here. I see the pastel colors and scent the crayons. It's strange how simple things were for us as children, and how at the young age we paid close attention to detail. It makes me wish we could all go back to when things were less complicated*Smile*

The things we cherish and remember the most are things that can never be replaced.

Lovely moments captured. Thank you for sharing this.

Ponkacheese,

*ThumbsUp* I think that you have shown a great love and appreciation for the Lord in this. There are always tests thrown our way, and it is up to us whether or not to keep faith, or question it. You have shown us a journey, where faith shines through.

I think this reads beautifully and has lovely images throughout the poem.

Good use of alliteration in- shimmering spirits!

TurtleMoon,

*Thumbsup* This is heartbreaking! I feel the despair and unanswered questions through your poem. Lyrics are a lot like poetry, but I have never tried to write any myself.

Misty reflections in a cracked mirror
reaching for the empty space
where he left me unattended.
Unbroken cobwebs leave no trace.


*Exclaim* These are my favorite lines! There's spoken metaphors here.
*Burstgr* Misty reflections- because of tears and the confusion of being left
*Burstgr* cracked mirror- damaged and broken-hearted
*Burstgr* reaching for the empty space- trying to hold onto something, but there is nothing

It would be interesting to hear it sung, or at least to know the genre of music you intended it to be sung in*Smile*

Damas,

*Thumbsup* Clever take on what the light can hide. You did a great job in showing what lurks in the shadows and within the darkness. Good title and brief description!

I only have one suggestion for you, hope you don't mind:

In night's shadow the great sun hides
Covering all of man's horrible lies


*Burstgr* Consider using the word uncovering instead of covering. It sounds like the shadows and night are covering up lies, but as the poem carries on, it is the lies that come out in the darkness.

I really enjoyed the content, rhythm, and rhyme!

Whitemorn,

*Thumbsup* LOVE the title; it truly feels like that is what it is. For the last few months, they have been everywhere, and I have a hard time saying no to those cute faces! They are good at rebuttals for excuses! This is adorable and quite funny.

Don't pass by their fortress of crummy confections,
those poisonous, syrupy, toxic collections.

*Burstgr* Good rhyming choice and great description!

Kudos to you for the final statement *Wink*

Ms. Sophia,

Welcome to Writing.Com. Hope my comments and suggestions are welcomed.

*Thumbsup* I like that your poem shows that being alone can also mean something frightening. I think that the things you mentioned in the poem present the reader with a gloomy setting, and show that there is some desparation to not get caught.

*Burstgr* Just a few things I noticed:

Itâs raining
It's raining

your silouhettes outside
your silhouette’s

You disseapear
disappear

*Idea* Consider expanding the poem a bit. As a reader, I wanted to know why is he or she disappearing. Why are they running away?

Crissy,

Hope my comments are welcomed!

*Thumbsup* You have managed to show sorrow and loss through this piece. The focus on the sounds and action of the rain show a certain sadness, while also flashing to images of happier times. I love the term "angel's teardrop". It makes me feel like Heaven is crying for the loss as well. You presented a somber tone, but did not overdo it. Nicely done.

DS,

Weclome to Writing.Com! Hope you don't mind my comments and suggestions.

*Thumbsup* I love that you are sharing something you wrote years ago! I think that you're poem shows someone who is sinking and feels like they're in the background. They do not necessarily feel seen or heard by the people around them. Pain and feeling invisible are clearly shown.

when I speak
no one answer

*Burstgr* Consider changing this line just a bit; I think it comes across clearer:
no one answers

Cynaemon,

Memories are something that can help keep a spirit alive, once they no loger walk this earth. The love and appreciation you have for your grandmother is evident through this poem. This is such a sweet moment to capture and though I never met her, it still made me smile. I adore the title too; this is something that can be passed down with each generation.

This is love.

*Shamrock* Welcome to the "WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group's March Mayhem Power Raid *Shamrock*


Princess Megan Rose,

This is a fabulous idea and a wonderful way to celebrate the fans of Jane Austen! I think this will attract many writers and it's exciting to know that a badge has been created for those who partake in this event. I love that you created the idea of the writer possibly being the character that falls for Darcy or Elizabeth; it's fan-fiction, which I think is quite clever, given the topic.

Good luck with this! I will keep my eyes open for the entries.

Hi there, Vasavan!

Welcome to Writing.Com. Hope my comments and suggestions are welcomed.

*Thumbsup* This poem shows that not all tears are sad tears. It was nice to read something that shows different types of tears. I like that you show examples in each area. I think that you show devotion to God through this and describe the type of tears that salvation can bring.

*Shamrock* This review comes to you on behalf of "WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group during our "Invalid Item*Shamrock*

Hope you don’t mind my comments or suggestions.

*Thumbsup* You have done a wonderful job in expressing how much this person means to you, and how even time passing does not change how much they are missed. I know this is a personal piece, so I hope that it is okay to still offer a suggestion.

When your life was snatched away
The world did turn a sombre grey

*Burstgr* Consider rearranging and changing the tense a bit. I think that this will read smoother and it still keeps with what you mean.
When your life was snatched away,
The world turned a somber grey


I am truly sorry for your loss. Your love is clearly shown here.

Duke,

Welcome to Writing. Com! Hope my comments are welcomed.

*Thumbsup* I think this is a cute, but inspiration piece and I think many will agree that finishing a poem can be a challenge! I love the opening lines and the first stanza itself. It feels like piecing a puzzle together.

There are many of us that have pieces started and are unable to figure out the ending. I tend to have little phrases (3 or 4 liners) that I have plans for, but often my mind seems to hiccup when I try to complete them.

Very easy to relate to and sends a positive message!

Deidre,

Hope you don’t mind my comments or suggestions.

*Thumbsup* I think you have capture what most mothers wish for their children, and that it can be quite the challenge to raise more than one. You have to wear multiple hats and every child craves or needs something different.
*Notew* I have some suggestions, hope they are welcomed.

Needing love an validation
love and validation

With each my mind ponders
*Bulletgr* Consider using a comma after “each”. It feels like there should be a slight pause there.

Knowing one day I will have to let go.
Hoping I have instilled a strength of self love, Worthiness, acceptance and forgiveness in them

*Bulletgr* I understand the meaning here and think it is a very important message. May I suggest a few line breaks and minor alters in a few words that still keeps with the meaning of the lines:

Knowing one day I will have to let go,
I hope I have instilled enough
love, self-worth, acceptance, and forgiveness in them.


*Thumbsup* I can see the importance of what you hope to accomplish as a mother. Having to let them go one day can be a difficult thought to process, especially when we spend decades trying to raise them.

Thinker,

Happy Writing.Com Anniversary! Hope you don't mind my comments and/or suggestions.

*Thumbsup* I think that you show much love and admiration toward grandparents in this poem, and I think that it is a sweet children's piece.

*Idea* It is a good start, but I think it could be even better with some polishing. There are times in the poem where the words seemed switched in their placement, and where the lack of punctuation confused me a bit. I really think if you make some changes, it will allow this to be read, as I believe you intended it to be. I won't go line by line, but I'll show you what I mean in just the first few lines.

You say:
Come here betty look at the moon
Grandma will there reach very soon


*Notew* Consider these changes:
Come here, Betty, "look at the moon."
Grandma will reach there very soon.


its quite fair
*Burstgr* it's because it is fair

*Thumbsup* I really love the idea that she is heading toward the moon. There are moments in your poem that I think are a comforting idea, even though the title is quite sad. The meaning and message behind this is important and heartfelt.

Lucky,

*GiftY**ConfettiGR* This review comes to you on behalf of "Anniversary Reviews! *ConfettiGR* *Gifty*


Happy Writing.Com Anniversary! Hope you don't mind my comments or suggestions.

*Thumbsup* I think that your poem describes much of what we think a gypsy's life would be- a life surrounded by music, dance, and freeness.

Music filling your head, so
intoxicating it leaves you breathless


*Burstbl* I like that this shows there is not a care, or a fear of judgement. It reminds me of the popular phrase, dance like no one is watching. I wanted to offer a suggestion though, because I thought a few changes in tenses and wording would help it flow a bit smoother. Hope you don't mind:

Taylor,

Happy Writing.Com Anniversary! Hope you don't mind my comments.

*Thumbsup* Very strong title and refrain. I appreciate how you changed it up slightly in the 3 repeated refrains. I think it adds an element to show stages of life. It shows that it's something he never could let go.

Looking through this child's eyes
You can see how a butterfly dies


*Burstbl* Ouch! This is a painful thought! The first line shows innocence and purity, and the second shows it fading or stolen away. I really love the symbolism of the butterfly dying- it could be the glimmer in his eyes falling to hopelessness.

As he tears apart one fragile wing
His heart, inside, can't feel a thing


*Burstbl* These lines show me that though he is troubled, he's become immune to feeling anything good. Depressing thought, but you show it well here.
