Hello Heleny, thank you for your poem. I too was the silent one who reacted to life as my dad. The poem is a reminder true internal bliss is fleeting. There is narcissistic bathing in the wilderness and out of the wild passive smoke a volcano lurks. Beware!!, lest you become a victim.

Hello Robert, I caught the edge of the sword on this one. Who is to say what is a suitable place for one to be born. The child is born, so what else matters. Maybe the child was born for such a place and time as this.

Hello John, you provide a great environment for personal introspection. I find myself wondering what I might do given the same circumstance. Food is the goal of a starving throng. What will it take to get it. Is it worth it? A stunningly fine value clarified. Thanks

Review of Locked away Love

Rated: E | (4.0)
Hello Ray, I am glad for the expression of your love that brings to the readers awareness the devastation of divorce and it's consequence. I can recall the hurt even if it was when my children were quite a bit older. I know that I too would have done anything to keep the family together and now the brokenness pervades. I pray That in some way Saiya knows your love. I have learned that in part I express my love for my kids in my encounters with other youth and children. Nothing is more painful that the loss of a child or father love. Thanks for sharing.

I am filled with sadness with the imaging of your loss. I am particularly pricked by the image of ice cooling and yet also intimation of what it means to cast on the rocks.(apt allusion). Then there is the bag lady with the reflection of the sailor who in a commercial wear old spice. By the time I read I know the loss. I too have a daughter Joy and I pray that I will not let my last time with my adult daughter be loss, but rather an invitation into even better days to come. Thanks for sharing

Review of Prophecy

Hello Nikola, I enjoyed your prophetic meandering. I am left wondering what it means to anticipate the future with all the resources to discern at my disposal. In this story it is the elements of earth, fire, air and water. It is one thing to invite the inevitable and quite another to accept it. The wind in the velvet cape captures the mystery of what is to come and the only recourse is to prepare. thanks

Hello Riddle thar, you offer the horns of a dilemma, love is always a choice and the difference between a broken heart and one made whole. Is there anything that anyone do but hope that what is felt within is realized outside in the heart of the beloved. Thanks for sharing the essence of romance, waiting and learning to embrace inevitable truth of love.

Review of Prompt

Hello Writers for recovery, I like you own offering as to what can provoke and promote healing in the form of discerning the difference of giving attention to what goes on in the gut, as opposed to what happens as we reason for purpose. I experience a holistic discernment that lead you to follow what your gut and inner voice say.

If we choose a purposeful life, then there is a future waiting. There are so many parallels that are existing and taking place right this minute. The job of our gut, is to guide us to our most beneficial parallel. The destiny that is most fulfilling for our very personal truth, is out there waiting. We must be quiet and attuned to our most naked self in order to obtain it
I only offer that besides the spiritual foundations that you offer for direction and guidance is the reason that keeps me grounded so that I help others find their way. Thanks

Hello Hunter's moon, I liked the painting of legacy that you portray. is see in the forest a promise of new beginning lying the hand of an elder who passes on the baton to his younger grandson, He offers that he can give to the earth the gift of another tree that has been a family ritual. Each tree serves as a reminder that there is a life of significance that shares with the earth the bowing of prayer and unbowed dependency that issues in growth that spans generations before and after. thanks

Hello Wheels, I decided to offer support in the manner of a review and gift points. I am currently at the library. I like the title of your story. It could use a little more wording to fill it out. I can imagine that you have a great story in mind and can hardly wait to read it.

Hello Jace, a very charming piece. I enter into a place that lacks hope for the beloved who says my life is too hard; I can not cope and yet it is the expression to God of the cry of the beloved that the discovery of true love is manifest. Even in the midst of pain and guilt there is hope.
thanks for sharing, It is a poem fraught with hope.

inayacto, Thanks you for the earthy and grounded piece that you offer in poetic form. It is in the taste of desperation that I realize that I get what I came for. It is worth the boring and bland flavor that colors the relationship beginning. We do the best with what we have and discover that in the ridiculous shoe is the impossible. Who knows tomorrow may be even better.
thanks for sharing.

Review of Be yourself

Hello Ali, Thanks for your meaningful expression. You do a good job in defining what being yourself means in your personal context.
These are some of the main lessons I take from what you write:
1. Leave behind bad feelings, embrace good.
2. See others for who they are as you come to see yourself, giving no opportunity for an enemy to conquer.
3. Befriend your enemy and know the possibility of imagination that can take one to the stars.
thanks for sharing, well worth the read.

I am at last a bit puzzled at where you are going with this Ali. I am lured in by you title. I want to know about what makes this a happily ever after kind of experience. After this takes place I am introduced to people that have potential to make this fairytale become a reality. I would just like to know more about these persons. I am in a state of suspense.

Review of Awaiting Sleep

Hello Schnujo-White Walkers Will Win, I enjoyed your own betrayal of the territory that is lived/experienced between being wakeful and asleep. I see clearly the blanket of darkness, a great way to begin the tale.
There is movement to a wasteland imagery of thoughts that keep one awake.
I guess the bottom line is that it is in the knowing of what you might experience that you find shelter. At least you know what it is going to take to get you there.
Thanks for sharing

Hello Joy of Florent, I left your writing with a big smile on my face. You capture me with the short quote from Whitman and I find myself wanting to interpret the emotional depth and imagery that you share. The last stanza says it all right after I found myself glorying in what you wrote in a previous stanza:
Wouldn’t you rather be
a roofless ghost,
far-fetched and free,
haunting fresh horizons,
to sneak through unconsecrated rubbles?
Wouldn't you rather look at things
as if seeing them for the first time?
It is in the common houseplant and passing wind that we find our greatest inspiration!!!

Review of Circus Monster  
Review by drifter
In affiliation with Sisco's Good Deed Group  
Rated: E | (3.5)
Hello Euvin, I can follow your lyrical sense for the most part. I experience your song as revealing the circus as a metaphor for life. I love your first four lines. There is an interplay of two persons that invites a coming together to sing.
I find myself confused by the lines:
'He' wants me to sing
I just can not bring-
I say 'he's' not you
What else can I do?
I am not sure about the players in this circus. Are they lover's, friends or just one person sharing about a potential relationship of some kind. And then their is the circus monster. Maybe in a sense it is time for the show to end.
thanks for sharing

Hello Samantha, a curious tale. Your main agenda seems to revolve around affirming the right of persons to relate no matter what their sexual orientation. I find myself wondering about the role of the Christian school in communicating this truth. I would want to know more about this school in relationship to what you are talking about. Is it a bully like Jerome that sends people to hell? I leave your writing also wondering about the murder scene that involved Jared and his lover. I do not have a clear sense of what happened because Jared admits guilt and then in the next sentence share how it would be hard for anyone to believe him.
So does that mean that one can get away with murder, even though that obviously is not your main point.
thanks for sharing. You offer a lot to ponder.

Hello Soultress, I leave wondering more about who you are. I can capture that you have been through crisis, are having trouble about communicating what that means in your relationships. I would encourage you to unpack your thoughts with someone you trust. It may not mean anymore to share. It may just mean sorting through how to do the best you can with who you are.
I leave seeing a lot of loose ends. There are spelling and grammar glitches. Above all I experience you as a person looking to love and be loved. I pray that you find that for yourself and share that with the many persons that are feeling lost and wondering if anyone cares.

Hello Panda Paws, it seems fitting that I find your reflection on the great Lakes. I have just begun living in Erie for the last three weeks and Lake Erie is not far away. I enjoyed your impressions. They were terse and to the point. At the end you offer a journey. Where does the water flow. I wonder where my life will eventually go and in the context of Lake Erie wonder if I will be stern enough to meet the test of experiencing more snow than I have seen before.

Now that is a story that I an truly resonate with. I enjoy the way you are able to use language dialect to communicate that there is a bridge between cultures. Much of what you say is truth that I have come to know from talking to others about the religious understanding of the native Indian. As you share much of the issue is working with what is already there, rather than imposing truth on a people, whether you are a pilgrim or Indian. Thanks for sharing. I left feeling a strong connection with you and the truth you share.

Hello Tim well done. It was a great read. I have bowled and the greater temptation is to throw it hard expecting good results. Your rhyme and rhythm offer a different lane to try. It's the way of finesse and working within abilities. At the end of the day results matter. I enjoyed your poem. It was a strike!!😁

Review of TURKEY TROT

It was fun Sandra, especially the anticipation of having a turkey for dinner. I am guessing the mention of cranberry sauce alludes to the fact that you can not have a turkey without it. The dialect is colorful. I feel an earthy invitation at hand to join the dance. Who knows what one will find in the end, Maybe turkey!!!
thanks I just happen to like turkey, Yum, let me dance on over.

hello catdok, there seems to be more to what is going on than what I am seeing. You offer up a presence that is more material than personal. You use the word rigid and add the semblance of a figurine. It comes across for me as a metaphor of life. I am in a sense redeemed for some purpose. Maybe this figure is the same way. It is notices and in awareness. Now let's see what happens once some one knows and admits the being of this thing matters.
thanks for sharing!!
