Hi

Here are my thoughts about,"Exactly Two Years Ago." Please remember that these are only my opinions, and they are respectfully given to you. You may do with them as you wish.

Content:

First let me say I am sorry for your loss. It certainly is a terrible thing to lose a loved one, and I am sure that you will keep her memory in your heart forever. For me it has always been hard to express words of comfort to anyone during times like these. All I could offer is a sincere, “I’m sorry.” In your case you have no real closure either. You wrote; ”We will never know what really happened on that September night that tore our family apart forever. Not knowing what happened makes your loss even harder to deal with, and for that I am sorry too. The only true comfort and hope that you can find be is in God. He alone can give you true piece; I speak from experience. Your piece speaks to me with a lot of love and emotion. However, one of the things that I noticed was how you separated your lines. I think that it would read better in standard paragraph form.




Suggestions:


I suggest that you change the spacing as mentioned above. Thank you for sharing your feelings. My best wishes and prayers I extend to you.


Overall:

A good read, but sad.

Thanks for sharing, and keep writing.

Hi

Here are my thoughts about,"Untitled." Please remember that these are only my opinions, and they are respectfully given to you. You may do with them as you wish.

Content:

First just I want to say that I like your poem. You have many good things going on in this piece. It also expresses a lot of emotion in its words. The one think that I was thinking about while reading this poem is that; you are almost there. You almost have it, but still not quite. I feel that the rhythm is thrown off by the inconsistent Sybille count. I didn’t see the flow that I would like to have seen in this piece.




Suggestions:

What you already have here, can be improved upon so much more just by a changing a few things. It won’t take much, and I believe that it is an easy fix. I would watch the Sybille count, and keep it consistent throughout. Your rhyme is good in this poem so I would just concentrate on the rhythm of the poem. You may need to drop an unnecessary word here and there, and maybe add a word in different places, but as I said it won’t take much. I know that you can do it, and I encourage you to do so. I will be happy to review your poem again after you make your corrections. Here is an after thought; I would title this," Trapped in a strange place." Jut an idea..



Overall:
A good poem that nees some mor work.


Thanks for sharing, and keep writing.

Hi

Here are my thoughts about," Because." Please remember that these are only my opinions, and they are respectfully given to you. You may do with them as you wish.

Content:


As I started reading your poem, and reached the eight verses, my first thought was, why you are repeating the first verse again? Then I realized that you must be doing a re-write since the poem repeated itself. I think that this is a bit confusing. I can’t tell which one is the revision.
You don’t have to add the first draft. You can make a note somewhere that you are doing a revision if you like.

I like the lines are in the 2nd verse of your poem. We know the phrases they say and repeat. I thought that it was a nice way to put it. However I still can see room for improvement. The Sybille count is off and that interrupted the rhythm of the piece. I would keep a constant count throughout. There are also a few other things that I saw that sort of spoiled the reading experience for me.
In the third verse, last line, you wrote; “wed all be alone.” It should be [we’d] we’d is the contraction - we had, we should, and so forth. I think it would have been better to write, we would.
“cuz it keeps comin back
“ I would avoid the use of the word cuz in this poem. It makes it sound to urban for this type of poem. There are some other things that I saw, but I won’t point them out. I am sure that you will find them and make the corrections. I admire all the effort that you have put into this. This is how you learn and grow as a writer, or in any other endeavor for that matter. The old saying, ”practice makes perfect” is basically true.






Suggestions:

I would take another look at the poem and try to make some corrections like some of the ones I mentioned above.



Overall:

Needs some more work

Hi

Here are my thoughts about,"Blame." Please remember that these are only my opinions, and they are respectfully given to you. You may do with them as you wish.

Content:

It is obvious to me that you have put much emotion into this piece. This is good, you should write from the heart. I like the lines five and six…forever playing pretend. Separations are always hard on both people involved no matter which one is more at fault than the other. Both parties share in the blame to one degree or another, and both suffer emotionally from the break-up. In the last two lines of your poem you still show concern, and maybe even some hope that the relationship will heal. I think it still shows some love there. Your are hopeful, but you are still in doubt at the same time. Now, what isn’t working for me here is the way that the rhythm and flow of the poem is off. It makes it a bit distracting for me and I am not getting out of it, what I should be. That’s just me of course.




Suggestions:

What I can suggest to you is that you take another look at this poem. Try and maintain a syllable count that is consistent throughout, this will help with the rhythm. Also I would break these lines up into two verses of four lines each. With a little more work on this I can assure you that you will have a much nicer poem. I want to encourage you to work on this some more. It will help develop your writing skills, and help you to become a better writer.



Overall:

Good idea but still needs some more work.

Hi

Here are my thoughts about, "poem." Please remember that these are only my opinions, and they are respectfully given to you. You may do with them as you wish.

Content:


Well, this is certainly an interesting take on poetry; that is if indeed you intended it to be a poem of one word, two syllables. Nevertheless, I will comment on this anyway.

My first thought was that it was a mistake of some kind. You may have started this and then quit, not aware that it was posted. I think that would make more sense than the next alternative; that you were trying to create, “outside the box” from anyone else. If that be the case then I can only respond by referring you to my poem titled, “The Empty Page.” It is basically about a “poet” who placed his poem, a blank page, in a book of poems written by other various poets. The poet died and his work, this blank page, became well known, while the other poets, the true poets, did not receive the recognition that they deserved.

The third possibility is that this was intended as a joke, which in that case, has gotten this response from me. At any rate, the one word that you wrote, “women,” is just like women everywhere; hard to understand.

Hi

Here are my thoughts about,"Pastor Joyce Dreiman Home with the Lord." Please remember that these are only my opinions, and they are respectfully given to you. You may do with them as you wish.

Content:

I like it when you wrote about no guarantees for another moment in life. Death doesn’t check with your day-timer to see when it is in your schedule to die. This is a nice piece filled with the message of the gospel. You also wrote on grief. You have probably read the well known book, “On Death and Dying” by Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, M.D. You gave a good presentation in this piece about the different stages of grief. You also wrote about letting the person who is grieving talk. It is best to just listen. Sometimes we don’t know what to say. I myself have experienced moments like that. I would just listen to the person, and if I would speak it was just to say these five words; I am here for you. Nice job!




Overall:

A good read

Thanks for sharing, and keep writing.

Hi

Here are my thoughts about, "Vampire Chronicle-The Awakening." Please remember that these are only my opinions, and they are respectfully given to you. You may do with them as you wish.

Content:

I do like the idea that you have for this story, and you open it with a plane that has already crashed. That should spark the curiosity of the reader. But you then fail to tell all of the details. I feel that your story is too short and is lacking all of the parts that are extremely important for it.



Suggestions:


I think that you should make it longer and tell it in a manner that makes your reader be interest ed right from the start. There are too many unanswered questions in your story. As far as the grammar and punctuation are concerned, I won’t leave comment since these are my weak areas that I am working on. However, I will point out one that I saw. It is in the sentence, “There's no sight of any lifes around him accept the burning remains of the plane after the crash a few hours ago.” It’s better to say; there is no sign of any life. Life would be the correct word to use here. Also, maybe use the word [for] after accept would make it sound better..

Overall:
Needs work.

Hi

Here are my thoughts about,"Darkness of the night." Please remember that these are only my opinions, and they are respectfully given to you. You may do with them as you wish.

Content:
This is a nice dark poem. Although as I was reading the first four lines I was a little unsure if I was going to like it or not. But after I got pass those lines, it seemed to get better. My favorite part is I speak not the truth…..and the next three lines after that.




Suggestions:

I would do a few things with this. The first thing that I would do is to split up these words into four line verses. That would give you six verses of four lines each. Then I would take another look at the entire piece and see where I can change some words to rhyme a little better. I think the pattern that you were going for here is the first two lines rhyming with each other and then the next two. Also, I would fix the first four lines, the ones that I had a bit of trouble with. I am confident that you can do this, and it will make it a much better poem



Overall:

A good dark poem that nees a bit more work

Hi

Here are my thoughts about,"I found my strength." Please remember that these are only my opinions, and they are respectfully given to you. You may do with them as you wish.

Content:

I like the feelings that you are trying to put into this poem. I like when you wrote about being reminiscent of your life. Looking back on the past and seeing all the turns that it took you on is what I certainly can relate to.




Suggestions:

One of the areas that I had a problem with is; “Because its all made ME Instead of YOU and I.” I don’t think that is too clear to the reader. What you mean, is something that they will be asking, and that takes away from the experience of reading this piece. Also, I don’t see any use for the caps. On me and you in these lines. I feel they are not needed here. I would change this and work a bit more on this piece to make it much better.



Overall:

A nice poem but needs some more work.

Hi

Here are my thoughts about,"One Person Can Make A Difference." Please remember that these are only my opinions, and they are respectfully given to you. You may do with them as you wish.

Content:

In a perfect world there wouldn’t be any of those terrible things that you have mentioned. But when was the world ever perfect? You would have to think back in time to the Garden of Eden. Before man’s fall there was a perfect world, but after that the world has become a place where there are many terrible things, and lots of greed and injustices. Man at his ultimate best is depraved and cannot possibly do good because he does not have the capacity to do so. His very being is corrupt. Can one person really, truly, make a difference? Maybe on a superficial level they can. By mans understanding there are good people and there are bad people. Many people will do good things, but that will not stop all of the evil and destruction that’s in the world. Evil vs. Good is a battle that was going on since before time began. You have picked an interesting topic to write about, and I suspect that you will get a lot of different views on the matter. You piece, although good, lacks more information worth of the topic. I feel that it is much too short to get into all of the materil about this subject,therefore incomplete.





Suggestions:

You have some interesting subject matter here, and I feel that you should expound some more on this. Get some more views and weigh them all against each other, so that you can present it a more complete way without being too complex.


Overall:
A interesting read, but only touches the surface about the topic.

You use some good imagery in this poem. I like the part you wrote,” …. Silhouetted against the background of smeared orange-pink clouds and shadowed mountains.” You paint a nice picture in this piece.

Hi

Here are my thoughts about," crumby steps Please remember that these are only my opinions, and they are respectfully given to you. You may do with them as you wish.

Content:



What I liked about your story is how you connect what life has in front of you to a trail crumbs. The crumbs, although leading the path, are small, light, and can be easily blown away by the wind. They can also be eaten by birds or other animals too. The two friends, the chicken and the goat, knew that in order for the three of them to arrive at their destination safely, they couldn’t eat any of those crumbs that led the way. Just like in life, we are tempted by various things that if we partake in them, we will lose our way. We all have a path of crumbs marked out for us to follow, and we must keep our eyes on them and be vigilante, to reach our destination in life.
What I saw in your story is lots of grammar and punctuation errors. Also, you need to write with some more clarity. I had a bit of a hard time reading this. I would suggest that you take another look at the story, and make some changes in the re-write. Thanks for sharing your story with us.

I think that you wrote a very informative piece on how to handle yourself well in an interview. You supplied some good do's and don’ts, and what you said about preparation before hand, is a very wise thing to do. I find this to be informative and well written.



Suggestions:

You may also want to this add to this. Send the interviewer a letter/ thank you note. That would be a nice touch, and it would show your appreciation for being considered for the interview. This is just a thought.

Hi Sairah,

Here are my thoughts about,"Make-up is magic." Please remember that these are only my opinions, and they are respectfully given to you. You may do with them as you wish.

Content:



I must say that it was the title that drew me to this poem. From your title I thought that it would be a poem about a couple making up. Iguess that goes to show you a man’s view. I can see what you are trying to do here, and it is a pretty good idea for a light hearted poem. The use of makeup to try and correct all of the things that a woman feels is flawed on herself. I like your words, “natural and fake stunner.” I never have thought of putting it that way, but you are correct in making that observation.
However, I would like to have seen more rhyme, and a better rhythm to this poem.



Suggestions:

Go over this poem and see if you can find words or phrase that have more rhyme. Also, work more on its rhythm and flow.


Overall:

Needs some work.

Hi

Here are my thoughts about,"It'll be okay." Please remember that these are only my opinions, and they are respectfully given to you. You may do with them as you wish.

Content:

I like what you are saying in this poem. To offer last words to a love one, and letting those words be words of comfort and assurance is a nice sentiment. This is a nice premise for the poem. However, as I started to read it I thought that it would have had a nicer flow, and I was a little disappointed when it didn't. If you used a syllable count that is constant throughout the piece it would be much better, and it will flow along nicely. Also I found that your line, “Don’t worry, is oddly out of place. I was wondering if you intended the last two lines to be together. I don't know, but I thought I would mention that to you.



Suggestions:


You have good rhyme in this poem and I would take a look at changing a few things that would give the poem a nice even flow. You are nearly there in my opinion, it just needs some tweaking. I think that they would be pretty easy fixes to make, and when you do, you'll see how much the poem improves.





Overall:

a good poem that need a little more work.

Hi Amy

Here are my thoughts about,"Evil." Please remember that these are only my opinions, and they are respectfully given to you. You may do with them as you wish.

Content:

From your title I expected it to be more of a dark piece, but that wasn’t necessarily my take on it after reading it. I like this poem, and it says a lot of things that can make one think. I particularly like the lines; "She will try to entice you and draw you in...... Sort of like a spider gets you caught in her web. I think that she can represent anything. It may be a person, thing, or maybe a desire or an addiction. Lots of different things, or temptations if you will, can lure you in by their deceitful beauty and charm.


Structure:

What is missing for me is the rhythm and flow in the poem. I would like to see more of that in this piece. Syllable count was off which was a contributor to that, and there needed to be a word added in different places to help the poem flow. I also had some trouble with "never expecting that I will win." That was an extra line, and it threw me off. I would try to keep the poem at four line stanzas.




Suggestions:

I would take another look at the poem and see where you can make some changes to make the poem flow easier while not comprising your main message. It is certainly worth the effort on this particular piece.



Overall:

A good poem that can use a little tweaking.

Content:

This is a nice work showing your feelings and thanks toward God. It is almost psalm like. I saw one thing that caught my attention; in line 2 of verse one you mentioned that one day you stumbled upon God. Theologically, and more importantly truth, is that He chose you. It is just something I caught, I’m sure it was written there to work in your piece. That brings me to another thing; I would classify this more as prose. I find that some of your wording should be changed while conveying the same meaning and feeling.


Suggestions:

I would re-read this and see where you can express the same thought a little differently.

All in all a nice read.

Content:

This is a nice piece on autumn, and some of the reasons for loving it. I certainly do, in fact it is my favorite of all seasons. I lived in the mountains most of my life so you can imagine the spectacle of colorful foliage that I saw. Your descriptions and visuals were very good and it made me long for autumn again. I now live in south FL where there is only two seasons; wet and dry. At any rate, this is a very delightful piece.

Suggestions:


I can't really think of any except maybe that it is a bit too short. I wanted to stay in autumn a little longer.

I like this poem and can relate to that empty fish tank because I had one. My favorite line in the poem is a guppy's ghost town tank.

This is a nice humorous piece that gave me a bit of a lift today.

Hi Christina

Here are my thoughts about,"Going Down Deep." Please remember that these are only my opinions, and they are respectfully given to you. You may do with them as you wish.




Content:

This is a very interesting piece, and very profound too. In the first lines; “finding myself and then losing all over again,” it pretty much describes some of my experience of which I wrote about once. In short I went off to “find myself” and after I did find myself; I didn’t like who I found. I think that we all are different people at different times, and for different reasons; but in the end we are left only with our naked self. I could Pontificate on these things for hours but I’ll spare you my ramblings. I like this poem, and think that it has a lot of depth to it.


Structure:

Your use of caps in this was a bit distracting for me. I am not sure if you were trying to give a certain style to the poem by using them, but for me they really didn't add to the poem at all.



Suggestions:

As I have mentioned above.



Overall:

A nice thought provoking read. Gives you something to think about.
