Review of Jahala Rose  
Rated: E | (5.0)
A lovely tribute to your little newborn granddaughter. A blessing given through
your daughter that is almost beyond your dreams. This litle innocent newborn has
already captured your heart so it seems by this lovely poem that you have written for
her, Jahala Rose.

MY FAVORITE IS..."sticky sweet swaddled.......Innocence coddled." Words that let the
reader feel the sweetness of this precious innocent spirit, just come into this world.

God bless you and your family with a closeness and happiness always.
LOVE, *Heart*

Review of You Are There  
Rated: E | (5.0)
This is a very lovely tribute to all the very brave men and women who are serving
our country in the military. IT means a lot to support them by showing them with letters
or cards that we think of them and appreciate their service.

God bless you always for the kindness that you show to others.
Love, *Heart*

Review of Spring Angel  
Rated: E | (5.0)
Ida,
This "spring" poem is so refreshing...it is new life...it is rebirth and spring does
speak to us with all of her joy and laughter as the flowers, animals and children
come to life after the long winter's rest.

MY FAVORITE PART IS...."That there is always someone you can't see..Admiring spring
with you.'

God bless you always with a joy and appreciation for this glorious season.."Spring."
LOVE, GYPSYROSE

Wow!
Kare, This is profound...to meditate upon such a wave from her birth or creation ,through
her gulp of destruction, and to even the quiet solitude of despair after she disappears back
into the vast depths of the sea...

Your words have created the total picture of the "Tsu na mi" Wave in almost a tender way
of allowing the reader to feel her energy without hating her..except for the destruction
that she caused as she gulped all those in her path.

For those who are in her path, I FEEL their pain, but for her I SEE THE MAJESTY OF
POWER of THE UNIVERSE..A PICTURE OF THE FORCE OF NATURE BEYOND THE
UNDERSTANDING OR CONTROL OF MERE MAN UPON THIS PLANET. Your words
were able to let me see the other side of the coin...there are two sides to most anything.

As I thought about this, I COULD imagine sandcastles that I HAVE built upon the Atlantic
beaches, like little cities...but when the tide comes in....all washed clean..leaving a pristine
and sandy shoreline, nothing left of the sandcastle...the power of the Sea, of its daily life
yet it is only a bitty Tsu na mi...so to speak....unavoidable, constant, and part of God's
Creation. We cannot change it nor can we control it from happening..only try and live
through it and realize that God is more powerful than we will ever be.

Thank you for this profound lesson in God's plan of Creation.
MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS WITH INSPIRATION AND CREATIVITY IN YOUR WRITING
TO INSPIRE OTHERS AS THEY READ YOUR WORDS.

What a beautiful way to look at nightfall, as the changing of the Guard...A very
profound poem and thought...we are never left in total darkness as the heavens above
tell us of the constant witness of an Almighty God, the Creater of the HEAVENS AND EARTH.

Even on the darkest of nights, peeking through the clouds, we may see a glimpse of
infinity and the galaxy beyond our precious earth. Thank you for the reminder and also
of the moon with her soft light gently giving comfort through the night. Although we
oft take nightskies for granted, your words have reminded us of an everlasting 24 hour
God, the Creator, who never fails to watch over this earth and all who reside on this planet.

God bless you with inspiration to touch the reader in such a profound way as you have in
this lovely poetic verse .

Review of My Family  
Rated: E | (5.0)
NOELLE,
This poem certainly captures your love for your family...First, you see them with your eyes
and soul, loving them for their beauty, but also what is even deeper that and what is
truly important...their virtue and honor. This brought me back to another time and place,
when at a very young age, my parents always taught all seven of us children that beauty
is only skin deep, and it is being beautiful on the inside where your heart is, that is the
secret of your "real beauty". This is such an important lesson and you have helped me
"revisit" those valuable lessons by your lovely words here.

Second, you love them for their lovely voices, that bring a smile to your face. Another of
life's great lessons...our words can uplift another, so why let anything come out of our
mouths that would hurt, or make another unhappy or angry. We have been given the
power of speech to lighten the load, not weigh another down...and your words have
reminded the reader of this power, and to use it as your family has..

Although you say that they have left you speechless...lovely words, so well written show
your devotion and appreciation, as well as inspiration that you have given the reader to
strive to become a better family member himself. To be able to inspire another to
be kinder with the tongue and concentrate on inner beauty rather than outward appearance
is certainly proof that you are a very talented writer. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.

God bless you always with insight and the ability to inspire others to become better individuals and especially to honor members of your family by your kindness to them.

LOVE,*Heart*

Daizy,
God does bend down to listen, and yes HE knows our thoughts and desires even before
we speak to HIM. I like the comparison between your Daddy, and your HEAVENLY
FATHER, as they both have "listened' to you throughout your life. You are very fortunate
to have such a great earthly father and His example of kindness and love was probably
instrumental in helping you realize your Father in heaven was always listening to you as
well.

MY FAVORITE IS.."God knows what I need before I ask....I am my Heavenly Father's
favorite, and He told me so today."
This was a very lovely POEM that was an example of a very strong faith and love both your
earthly father and our Heavenly Father..Thank you for sharing it.
God bless you always with a childlike faith and trust in God's love for you and for all who read it.
LOVE, *Heart* GYPSYROSE

Review of The Key  
Rated: E | (5.0)
DAISY,
What a lovely story of the KEY, and the MANSIONS in heaven
that are waiting for those who are faithful to God's
Commandments and endure with faith until the end.

A blessing that is promised as JESUS left this earth
that HE was going to prepare a MANSION for his faithful servants..It does not have to be what we
might expect a MANSION to be from our viewpoint..but
the promise of eternal happiness with HIM AND OUR
FATHER IN HEAVEN is a gift that we will be so grateful
for that nothing on earth can quite compare to this
promise, so it will be spectacular!
{c;blue}
YOU have reminded us that the key to this MANSION is
WITHIN reach of each and every one of us..if we seek
it we will find...Thank you for reminding us of the
KEY TO UNLOCK HEAVENS MANSION...a treasure to seek
always...

GOD BLESS YOU WITH INSPIRATION AND JOY IN HIS PROMISES. LOVE, GYPSYROSE*Heart*

DAIZY,
To have the wind whisper soft calming words to your
soul as you walk through the woods on a windy day, it
one of God's gifts that many never even notice.

You are inspired to write of this because you can
recognize another of the musical notes of the UNIVERSE
that God has given, if we will only listen..

MY FAVORITE..."When again the worldly cares scream out
my name I close my eyes and one more time I am in that
woods; the wind begins to whisper words that calm my
soul."

GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS WITH AN INDEPTH AWARENESS OF THE BEAUTY OF HIS CREATION.
LOVE,*Heart*

Review of Free to Choose  
Rated: E | (5.0)

Dear Warriormom,
Welcome to WDC! I KNOW you will love it here and we
are happy to welcome you the YE TRUSTWORTHY PIONEERS.
We have all been newbies and know how lost one can
get, so please know that either Violet or myself will
help you if you wander away from the Wagon Train and
have trouble finding your way back here..also SW POET
WILL always have her little schoolhouse door open, and
she is a FABULOUS TEACHER..

Your first poem...speaks for each one of us, as we
all treasure the "Free Time" when we are really free
to choose what we do with these precious moments that
make up our day...

My favorite line is....."Those few moments when I AM
free to choose, make the rest of the week possible."
Don't we all wish for more time to just "Do as we PLEASE?" Never loose the appreciation you have for
spending even a few precious moments doing what is
special to you.

GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS WITH APPRECIATION OF EACH MOMENT
IN YOUR DAY..LOVE,*Heart*GYPSYROSE

Review of Distraction  
Rated: E | (5.0)
BRANDY
"Distraction"...we have all traveled this road, and
what a beautiful way you have described life itself.
There are but few moments in our lives when jobs,
duties to our family or friends,or other obligations
leave us wondering if our time is being spent the
best way possible.

This is a reminder to take into account what is most
important in our life's "Record Book"...which will
be sure to go with us to the other side as our journey
on earth ends and the door into the eternities is
opened for us...

It is a reminder to choose wisely, each moment spent
and live it to the fullest, hoping that we always
Choose the Right! We are given free agency, one of
our most precious gifts from God. OUR question we
will have to answer one day..is did we fufill our
obligtions and promises to the best of our ability.
Were the "distractions" sent from God to guide us on
the path HE would want us to take to help us get back
home one day.

This was a wake up call to remind us to choose how
we spend each moment and day and try always to figure
out God's plan for our happiness and know that it is within our reach.

GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS WITH WISDOM AND UNDERSTANDING.
LOVE, *Heart*GYPSYROSE

Review of The Whittler  
Rated: E | (5.0)
Dearest Brandy,
YES, you have become the whittler of your own destiny. What a marvelous POEM,and even age could not
stop me from creating the kind of person I WANT TO
BECOME. JUST as you have spoken of your life and
the dreams of becoming a writer, even though you have
only now embarqued on this part of your journey...you
will accomplish whatever dream you wish to follow.

Your journey as a social worker was important to who
you have become, and it was not the wrong choice, my
dear, because you have spent all these years helping
others straighten out their lives. You have made a
difference in so many lives.

As your words have spoken, these pieces of you now
may be molded into another part of your journey through life, that of the teacher, writer, and one
who will always grow more beautiful and lovelier as
the writer, the poet, the teacher...

I am disappointed that there is not a 10 rating here
because this is one of the very best poems I HAVE
READ at WDC to touch my heart and soul..it is perfect
and a perfect reflection of what you are striving
to become. We may all learn a very important lesson
form you, Brandy. A +++++++*Heart*

GOD BLESS YOU WITH INSPIRATION AND DETERMINATION TO
PURSUE YOUR DREAM OF WHAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO BECOME...
AND THE ABILITY TO ACCOMPLISH THIS IN YOUR LIFETIME.

Review of Marriage Is...  
Rated: E | (5.0)
JULIE ,
Your poem "Marriage Is" would make a lovely card for
the new Bride and Groom. It reminds one of the
bond and promises one makes to another...as endless as
the rings that are exchanged by the two as they become
united as one.

A reminder of the importance of each partner to the
unity of the two...

My FAVORITE LINE IS...."of a LOVE everlasting and true
til the end." This is all to often forgotten as the
spats become arguments, and then too many forget the
vows and drift apart....When the rosecolored sunglasses are gone, that is the time to look again at the promises that were made as the two placed the forever rings on each others hands...

GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS WITH INSPIRATION AND LOVE.

Adam,
This love poem is very heartfelt and sincere. YOUR LOVE IS true and the fact that you realize that "love" is being a friend,who is always there for someone, even if love is not returned, and that you will be waiting to catch her "when she falls" and also "provide her shelter during the rain," proves that you love unconditionally.

Many can tell the story of how a loyal friend, giving unconditional love, with no strings
attatched will end up being the bright sunshine after
another has left her. Until marriage closes the door
to her heart...never give up your love, just wait
patiently for her to see the light in your soul.

MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS WITH UNDERSTANDING
AND THE ABILITY TO LOVE ANOTHER UNCONDITIONALLY.

BRANDY,
Why is it that no one listens to the child, yet they
ask how was their day...are we to busy to lend an
ear, take time to hear..just share a moment in their
day ..childhood is over before we blink....

This is a great poem that is so typial in parenting
today...yet even as one grows old, when their own story is told, did they listen?

This is one for the meditation hour...take time to
listen, before the whole world passes you by...time
sure does fly...why o why...doesn't ANYONE LIVE IN THE
PRESENT?

Thank you for giving us a taste of childhood looking
inside out! I REALLY TOOK HEART WITH JACK'S UNWELCOMED

Review of WHY??  
Rated: 13+ | (5.0)

"WHY?" A million dollar question...yet the answers
are not given......These questions , well
spoken, make a profound statement...There are so
many injustices that will never change no matter
what generation asks "why so"

This thought came to me as I READ IT...what
is the first question a little child asks" Why?"
And yet, as our life progresses, we forever want to
know "Why?" are these the consequences or results of negative behavior...
Because wrong actions result in negative consequences.
But your questions did not mean you expected an
answer..only that you wanted to make a profound
statement of Why there is evil in the world...

A challenging POEM...THANK YOU FOR inspiring indepth
study of your words..Very strong statements..I ENJOYED
this poem very much.

GOD BLESS YOU WITH CREATIVITY AND THE ABILITY TO
INSPIRE OTHERS THROUGH YOUR WORDS. LOVE, GYPSYROSE.

SW POET, SWPoet

This is your first Poetry Class onboard the Troubadour. I am very impressed with the effort you
have put into helping us improve our POETIC ABILITY.

What a wonderful idea you have come up with
to stimulate our brains into a daily habit of writing
poetry, a little each day. You focus on the positive
and we can see by the format set out by the week that
anyone taking your class, will not only improve their
style of writing, but increase their knowledge of
POETIC EXPRESSIION, and one's ability to paint only
the "prettiest" images with our choice of words.

GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS WITH A CREATIVE SPIRIT,
AND THE ABILITY TO TEACH OTHERS HOW TO EXPRESS THEMSELVES THROUGH POETIC VERSE...

The Troubadour is proud to have you as our POETRY
INSTRUCTOR, and we invite all members of WDC to take
these classes with us on the Mighty Troubadour, our
sailing vessel on its maiden voyage to faraway places.

MEG,
LOVED "Way Outback on the Cattle Track" as I WAS
reviewing the POEMS that were alongside this one in the "PICK the PRETTIEST FLOWER" contest entries.
Your "Borrowed Poetry" from Andrew Barten (Banjo) Patterson's poem entitled "Clancy of the Overflow" could well have been sung to the tune of a good ole banjo song.

Your fresh approach and your lovely indepth
addition to PATTERSONS words, created a story worth
telling of the old cattle rancher under Aussie skies
way way outback...a legacy worth remembering!

Your tale so colorful it took me right with you along the trail...as your words beat the rythem, to the clop clop of the "cow cockie's" horse on the big cattle drive. This was a fun experience to ride
along with the Aussie drover as he shuffled the cows
off to market.

YOUR poem became part of the patchwork quilt as you
laid out your squares bundled around PATTERSON'S WORDS, MY FAVORITE OF WHICH YOU CHOOSE TO "BORROW"
WERE.." And at night the wond'rous glory of the
everlasting stars." This was a beautiful example
and great choice of words for your "Borrowed POETRY".

GOD BLESS YOU WITH A LOVE OF HIS CREATION
AND ALWAYS A LOVE OF "DOWN TO EARTH" FOLKS, WHO
GIVE COLOR TO HIS WORLD!

Charles,
CONGRATULATIONS!
YOUR FIRST POEM EVER TO BE ENTERED IN YOUR WDC PORT!
Your friend, must be VERY special to inspire you to
write about your feelings when you are near her.

This is why I GAVE YOU 5 stars...1. Because you
were able to express the deep emotions that you must
have, AND be able to portray these to others with
your words. YOU have done a great job of doing this.

2. You must be able to make the reader feel as though they are there with you, in the scenario that you are writing about. YOU have made
me feel your nervousness, and your love for this girl.

I AM pretty sure you meant to say "nervous", instead of "nerves" and you might want
to correct the spelling..however I DID not mark points off for this since it was your very first POEM, AND that spelling is one of my weaknesses, so
I USUALLY do overlook spelling errors..but just try
and be more careful, okay?

GOD BLESS YOU, CHARLES, you are on your way
to becoming a great poet...because you live life with
sincerity and honesty, and love...and to me that is
what POETRY is all about! KEEP WRITING....

Captain Smokey, Ski -ster

The Title is what drew me in, and though I WAS looking
to read some poetry, I WAS already there, intrigued
by the beginning sentence...kept on until the end,as
I HAD to see what made a grown man so frightened.

Your short story was mysteriously leading me through
the woods with you...Would you drop dead from over
exertion, a heart attack in the middle of nowhere?
NO, YOU WOULDN'T BE WRITING THIS STORY...kept reading..prepared for almost anything...

MY FAVORITE PART, was of course that you are still
here to write about it...but the line "when would
someone find my mangled body, crushed into the dirt of
the trail and hardly recognizeable? (reader must
find out for himself!) I JUST CAN'T GIVE IT AWAY...

A GREAT MYSTERY, THRILLER, SUSPENSE...A fine
short story!
GOD BLESS YOU WITH JOY AND GOOD HEALTH AND THE ABILITY
TO LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST.

Review of Weep No More  
Rated: E | (5.0)
SW POET,
Your lovely poem, A "BORROWED POETRY" HAS THE BEAUTIFUL CONCEPT OF REASONS WHY WE SHOULD "WEEP NO
MORE" AS YOUR TITLE SUGGESTS. YOU HAVE GIVEN ADDED
DIMENSION AS YOU PERCEIVE THAT LOVE IS AS THE LIGHT
OF THE MOON AND THE STARS.. AND THAT WE SHOULD RISK
REJECTION AND PAIN TO FEEL THE WARMTH OF LOVE..

AS THE MEISTER ECKHART WROTE IN THE 13TH CENTURY, HIS
THOUGHTS PORTRAYED IN ANOTHER POEM WRITTEN BY DANIEL LADINSKY SPEAK OF LOVE AS THE VERY FUEL THAT KEEPS ONE ALIVE...THAT IS TO LOVE AND TO BE LOVED...
Very different words all expressing the essence of
love, being light, being warmth, being as bright as
the moon and the stars.

All three of you have together spoken in unison from
different standpoints in different eras, but with
such similarities.
This is indeed a patchwork quilt of words, a
lovely form of "borrowed poetry."

GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS WITH UNDERSTANDING AND BEAUTIFUL
WORDS TO EXPRESS YOUR FEELINGS OF LOVE.

LOVE, GYPSYROSE
