Rated: E | (5.0)
Made by Lilli

I came by your port today and decided to give you a review as well. After all, Anniversary Reviews Forum and Space Blog was designed to get you reviews.

My impression of this item was: This is a poem about a town on the other end of a bridge. When I read it I thought of Niagara Falls, ON and Juarez MX. They are both towns at the end of bridges and at times seems so far away and yet so near. We tend to forget that people occupy those towns because they are foreign to us.

Your spelling and grammar: looked good to me.

What I liked most: I liked the way you looked at this town and made it seem real.

What I liked least: Nothing.

Review of Stained Glass

Made by Lilli

I came by your port today and decided to give you a review as well. After all, Anniversary Reviews Forum and Space Blog was designed to get you reviews.

My impression of this item was: This is a dark, existentialist poem that seems to stem from depression and a feeling of inadequacy. The poet questions whether there is any rhyme or reason to life. Many of us have asked these same questions. I found my answer in the pages of the Bible. I pray that you find yours.

Your spelling and grammar: looked good to me except that every "I" should be in caps since "I" is a personal pronoun.

What I liked most: I liked that you are searching.

What I liked least: I hate that you are feeling this way. I hope you are okay.

I came by your port today and decided to give you a review as well. After all, Anniversary Reviews Forum and Space Blog was designed to get you reviews.

My impression of this item was: This is a lyric about somebody who is in a toxic relationship. The signs are all through the lyric, such as line three of stanza three where the loved one says "I just am not doing it right". Fault-finding is one of the signs of a toxic relationship. This likely continued to get worse. I hope you got out of that relationship.

Your spelling and grammar: looked good to me.

What I liked most: I liked that you were able to express this. Hopefully you are not subjected to belittling constantly. You are adequate just the way you are.

What I liked least: Nothing, thus the five stars.

Review of King Dog  
Review by Chris Breva
In affiliation with disABILITY WRITERS GROUP  
Rated: E | (5.0)
Made by Lilli

I came by your port today and decided to give you a review as well. After all, Anniversary Reviews Forum and Space Blog was designed to get you reviews.

My impression of this item was: This is a cute little Limerick poem about the authors dog. She says her dog thinks he is a king. That seems to be the case with most dogs. I have always loved dogs, though I am glad not to have one at this time. They are a lot of work but they can be such loyal companions. The author expresses that well. The syllable count appears to be spot on and the form is perfect.

Your spelling and grammar: looked good to me.

What I liked most: I liked the meter. I know it is difficult to write Limericks as I have written them. You have mastered it in this one.

What I liked least: Nothing, thus the five stars.

Made by Lilli

I came by your port today and decided to give you a review as well. After all, Anniversary Reviews Forum and Space Blog was designed to get you reviews.

My impression of this item was: This is a poem about inspiration from a friend. The friend is exalted and perhaps even idolized. It is good to have people to look up to. For the longest time my role model was a 12 step program sponsor. Today my role model is Jesus Christ. I know. It sounds preachy to say that. One can follow Jesus's advice whether they are Christian or not.

Your spelling and grammar: looked good to me.

What I liked most: I liked that you have a mentor. We all need mentors.

What I liked least: the format. I prefer rhyme and meter over free verse and prose.

Review of Lie to Me

In affiliation with Space Blog Group  
Rated: ASR | (5.0)
Made by Lilli

I came by your port today and decided to give you a review as well. After all, Anniversary Reviews Forum and Space Blog was designed to get you reviews.

My impression of this item was: This was a poem about pain. Sometimes it is easier to believe a lie than to accept the truth. In the end the truth is always for the best. The pain may last awhile, but it beats the pain of deception and betrayal. Often however, we humans would rather be lied to than face the bitter truth.

Your spelling and grammar: looked good to me.

What I liked most: I liked the rhyme. I love rhyme poetry.

What I liked least: I hated thinking that somebody did you that way. I've been there.

I came by your port today and decided to give you a review as well. After all, Anniversary Reviews Forum and Space Blog was designed to get you reviews.

My impression of this item was: This is a poem about being in love. Somebody is very fortunate to have somebody feel that way about them. Love is something that only comes around a few times. Each love is a little different than the last. The first is usually the strongest and can make or break a person. I hope this relationship is continuing for you.

Your spelling and grammar: looked good to me.

What I liked most: I liked the passion and emotion.

What I liked least: Nothing, thus the five stars.

I came by your port today and decided to give you a review as well. After all, Anniversary Reviews Forum and Space Blog was designed to get you reviews.

My impression of this item was: This is a poem about a turkey who went to a Thanksgiving dinner only to discover that it was on the menu! I have a feeling this was more about a young lady who went to a dinner only to find out that the hosts wanted more than a dinner guest. At any rate, the poem was comical at times and sad at others. Good job!

Your spelling and grammar: looked good to me.

What I liked most: I liked the flow and rhyme scheme. The comedy was very good.

What I liked least: Nothing.

Made by Lilli

I came by your port today and decided to give you a review as well. After all, Anniversary Reviews Forum and Space Blog was designed to get you reviews.

My impression of this item was: This was a personal piece about childhood issues. I have a traumatic brain injury, sustained when I was very young. Due to it, I was always a little slower understanding complex concepts and lousy with my hands. My parents thought I was mildly retarded or even autistic. I ended up being the most educated of any of my family with currently two associate degrees, two bachelor degrees and working on a masters degree. Your article seems to say "Be careful. You may underestimate!"

I agree. They just might.


Your spelling and grammar: looked good to me.

What I liked most: The concept of battling stigma.

What I liked least: the word encopresis. I have no idea what that is.

I came by your port today and decided to give you a review as well. After all, Anniversary Reviews Forum and Space Blog was designed to get you reviews.

My impression of this item was: This is a Christmas poem about a somewhat hungover Santa going on his annual run. The poem has good flow so the meter must be good. I did stumble a bit on the last stanza. Santa seems to be in a bit of a jam here. Thank goodness the elves can work magic.

Your spelling and grammar: looked good to me.

What I liked most: I liked the rhyme and meter. The length seemed appropriate.

What I liked least: Like I said, I stumbled on the last stanza. It seemed disjointed.

I came by your port today and decided to give you a review as well. After all, Anniversary Reviews Forum and Space Blog was designed to get you reviews.

My impression of this item was: This is a poem about waiting and homelessness. The author deduces that since everybody is waiting for something they are not truly homeless. For some reason there seems to be a logic to it. I mean, I am sure the homeless would disagree and if you are couch surfing, then you are, at the moment, homeless.

Your spelling and grammar: looked good to me.

What I liked most: I liked the logic in this.

What I liked least: the format. I prefer rhyme and meter.

I came by your port today and decided to give you a review as well. After all, Anniversary Reviews Forum and Space Blog was designed to get you reviews.

My impression of this item was: This was a story about a graverobber, who robbed one too many graves! Robbing any graves is unthinkable, but this robber definitely payed the price! This story ended in typical Angus fashion: with shock and awe. It makes one wonder what was to become of the wife?

Your spelling and grammar: looked good to me.

What I liked most: I liked the plot and the speed. It is short fiction but packs a punch.

What I liked least: Nothing. Great job!

I came by your port today and decided to give you a review as well. After all, Anniversary Reviews Forum and Space Blog was designed to get you reviews.

My impression of this item was: this was a tanka about rain. Tanka are fun to write but they are very challenging as well. I think you did a fine job on this one. Your syllable count appears to be spot on. Your subject is ideal since tanka deals with nature and landscapes. Well done!

Your spelling and grammar: I think "rain" should be "rains".

What I liked most: I liked that this was tanka. I love anything metered and especially love Oriental styles.

What I liked least: Nothing really, except possibly "rain".

My impression of this item was: This is a poem about an old man's dream's of a young lady's charms. As a man now nearing sixty I understand completely. I don't think there is a man alive who does not enjoy an attractive, beautiful young lady. I have to say that I laughed aloud several times reading this. It is a delightful read that captures "lust" well.

Your spelling and grammar: looked good to me.

What I liked most: I liked the imagery and the flow. I also liked that it captured most men's thoughts.

What I liked least: Nothing.

I came by your port today and decided to give you a review as well. After all, Anniversary Reviews Forum and Space Blog was designed to get you reviews.

My impression of this item was: This was a poem about cats. I agree with you that they have their own personalities! I have had a few cats that were extremely loving and caring and others that were territorial and finicky. Cats can be very different creatures that is certain. I think you captured them well.

Your spelling and grammar: looked good to me.

What I liked most: I liked the discussion and your admiration of cats.

What I liked least: I would have preferred a diamante poem, which I at first thought this might be.

I came by your port today and decided to give you a review as well. After all, Anniversary Reviews Forum and Space Blog was designed to get you reviews.

My impression of this item was: Bravo! I love English sonnets and it appears you handled this one well. I am no judge of iambic meter but the flow felt right with this one. I also did not take time to scrutinize your syllable count because again, the flow felt right. If the syllable count or meter had been off it would not have flowed as well. Great job. I also liked the subject and the couplet at the end blended brilliantly.

Your spelling and grammar: looked good to me.

What I liked most: Everything. What more can I say. Bravo. Encore!

What I liked least: Nothing.

I came by your port today and decided to give you a review as well. After all, Anniversary Reviews Forum and Space Blog was designed to get you reviews.

My impression of this item was: I like this poem about music. You are correct that music affects people psychologically as well as physiologically. I know a man who sleeps with music pounding. I do not know how he does it. As you imply, to each his own. It affects us all differently.

Your spelling and grammar: looked okay to me.

What I liked most: I liked the meter even though I never encountered this form before.

What I liked least: Nothing, thus the five stars.

I came by your port today and decided to give you a review as well. After all, Anniversary Reviews Forum and Space Blog was designed to get you reviews.

My impression of this item was: This is a sing-song little poem about my favorite time of year: spring! Summer was my favorite but as I've gotten older I find I can't handle the heat and humidity as well. Besides spring is usually mostly green here and green is what I like. Your poem brings that to mind.

Your spelling and grammar: looked great to me.

What I liked most: I loved the sing song flow and rhyme scheme!

What I liked least: Nothing, thus the five stars.

I came by your port today and decided to give you a review as well. After all, Anniversary Reviews Forum and Space Blog was designed to get you reviews.

My impression of this item was: This is a sad poem that rings so true for so many. It is sad that so many feel so broken and blue. Much of the pain is self-inflicted because we do not realize there is a better way. Some of the pain is from depression, a treatable chemical imbalance. Some is because we cannot come to terms with our creator. I hope you feel much better now.

Your spelling and grammar: looked great to me.

What I liked most: I liked that you are honest enough to ask these existential questions.

What I liked least: Nothing, thus the five stars.

I came by your port today and decided to give you a review as well. After all, Anniversary Reviews Forum and Space Blog was designed to get you reviews.

My impression of this item was: This was a poem of admiration and heart felt love. At first I expected it to be erotica but at the end was unsure if it was written from the perspective of a doting parent (perhaps a father) or a respited lover. Either way deep affection for the subject came shining through.



Your spelling and grammar: looked good to me.

What I liked most: I liked the pride, admiration, and love.

What I liked least: I wasn't sure whose perspective this was.

I came by your port today and decided to give you a review as well. After all, Anniversary Reviews Forum and Space Blog was designed to get you reviews.

My impression of this item was: This is a poem about finally giving up. The author was in love with somebody who did not return the love and the author finally saw that it was not going to be returned. I am glad you managed to escape that cycle as it often becomes a downward spiral for many.

Your spelling and grammar: looked good to me.

What I liked most: I liked that you finally wised up and parted ways. I also like that you see the positive in it. You had fun.

What I liked least: the format. I prefer rhyme and meter over free verse and prose.

I came by your port today and decided to give you a review as well. After all, Anniversary Reviews Forum and Space Blog was designed to get you reviews.

My impression of this item was: I have narcolepsy so I frequently have sleep paralysis. I have woke up unable to move, only to eventually realize that I am half asleep and the part of my brain that controls movement is still asleep. It scares you half to death but once you have done it a few times you realize what is happening...sort of. It can be bad.

Your spelling and grammar: looked okay to me.

What I liked most: I liked that you gave credence to what many believe to be a myth.

What I liked least: Nothing.
