Review of NEVER TOO OLD  Open in new Window.
Review by Seabreeze Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (5.0)
Short but to the point.

Caleb, who stood faithfully and was rewarded. He was a true server of God. It is amazing what can be done here at Writing.com. We have the freedom to share our beliefs.

Age is of the mind, although I must say I am feeling it more and more. My eighties are approaching quickly, this July.

Blessing to you my friend.

I loved reading this amazing story and your poem. Your father must have been an amazing man. Using poetry for his sermons was a wonderful way to keep his listeners' attention. A to sing it, another great move.

I didn't even know that there was a World Poetry Day. I will have to watch for that. Poetry is a blessing for me and is mostly what I write.

Once again, thanks for featuring my 'Teddy' in your postings.

Blessings,
Seabreeze

I found this a fascinating poem. I like how it has rhyme but still a break here and there which cause one to pause and think on its message. Your whole poem describes 'life' to me with challeges everyone goes through.

I only saw one slight error, a type:

The end result isn't funny. It's an insult to
he people involved, and nothing ends up
being solved.

Do you see it? It should be the instead of he...

Great read,

Seabreeze

Review of Promptly Poetry  Open in new Window.

March is looking a little iffy as well. I live in the Tampa area, New Port Richey to be exact. I must ask, do you or someone in your family have narcolepsy? It is unusual to mention it, especially in a poem. My late husband had it, severe case of it. Just curious?

Take care,

Your Hurricane poem is so wonderful, inspiring and thankful to our Lord that it is worth printing out and putting it near my desk so I can see it and read it each day.

Hi,

I hope you do not mind if I pick your brain. I am trying to understand free verse, how to write it and understand the various parts. I have read your poem above but I am having a hard time trying to understand some of it. Is it me? Or is it that it is to flow as it does and let the reader take what they may? I did read the examples of the free verse that was given at The Poet's Cafe. I checked out a couple other free verses but I am not being inspired to write one.

I thought if I just went and read and asked questions from writers it might help. Your poem flows and has words that, to me, seem flowery (don't take it wrong - it's just me), but as in the phrase,

At times noxious sulfur froths the water, staggering the mind.


I don't know what to make of that. It sounds catchy... Obviously, by itself it does not mean anything but in the contents of the whole body and with a title of Quality Assurance Each Day, I don't get it. I am being serious and I truly want to understand free verse. If there is anything you could tell me, I surely would appreciate it.

Thanks,
Seabreeze

Review of Let Go ?  Open in new Window.
Review by Seabreeze Author IconMail Icon
Rated: 18+ | (5.0)
Never been in such a situaation and to read it, to review it just for myself, is an eye opener. To make such a commitment is one thing but to carry it out is to be loyal to that person. It must be carried out to the best of one's ability.

I believe writing it down, as you have done, is the only way. Having that conversation with one's self is best written down, to go back and review, to ponder to necessary answer. What other way?

Well written,

Seabreeze

Yes, those pundits are skilled at doing nothing. Bills are over written as the bulls**t flows. That is what they are good at!

At least with Trump in, there is some action going on. Let the games begin.

Great little story,

The answer is no. When you reach my age, breathing each morning I get up is a reason to celebrate! Love your poem.

That's beautiful. Free form is a lot harder than traditional; it seems to me. But then again, rhythm is hard for me to create in poetry. I am so glad that I found your site. I have got lots to learn.

Brings back memories as a kid. Love to make castles at the beach.

I like the fifth stanze the best. Soon it is over, you leave or the tide comes in and bamb!

Great poem,

Rated: 18+ | (5.0)
This is quite clever. If the pieces could talk, right? As I read, I visualized the occuring on a large chessboard. Kind of like Alice and Wonderland scene. I am glad that the pieces don't take as losing in painful enough.

Funny take,

This is such a cute story and we adults sure can relate. We have had personal experience with ourselves and our children. It brought back memories, so many memories.

It is well written and I was surprised someone had not rated it.

Excellent,

My exact feelings about cats. I guess it is because where I live, too many feral cats. Your poem hit a spot with me. Dogs are more loyal but I will say, cats especially kittens can be cute.

Enjoyed reading your poem,

Hi, welcome newbie!

Great poem and anology of the pen on paper. I am just not real sure of the phrase,

"The only time we get time to re-energize is when we are dead." I don't understand the possibility of this?

I like the energy you have put in the pen. Its click and flick...this is great.

And the last two lines....tells the whole story. Once it is down, you can't take it back.

Very creative poem.

Very nicely written. Yes, the key. Sometimes we don't know when we hid the key.

A wonderful metaphor about life. I guess it is best we only have the key to our own door. Nobody wants to see my dirty laundry.

Review of I Like Trees  Open in new Window.
Review by Seabreeze Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (5.0)
I am with you! I love trees as well and love your poem. In fact, my favorite is the California Pepper Tree. I grew up around them, climbed in them, used their berries in play. They flow in the breeze and have a unique smell. I will leave a picture if I may,




Also, I am leaving a trinket - just for fun.




Blessings to you,

Hi G.B. Williams,

Love this! I like that you have described the true evil in the world and that Satan is behind it. So many are afraid to say the truth. Love your phrases, telling us that God is not chaos. He is light, pure light to lead us through this life and prepare us for His amazing new life when He comes to take us home.

Blessings to you,

Seabreeze

Clever. Morning coffee should just pop out for us like obtaining refreshments on Star Trek. Your poem did make me wait. But then I went and got my own cup. Excellent poem.

I love this. I like how you have the shoe telling a story; also running. It a cute story. I mean, why not a shoe. Even a jacket or hat could talk, right.

Enjoyed the read,

Review of Two stars  Open in new Window.
Review by Seabreeze Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (5.0)
Beautiful. They could be real stars in the sky but I believe they are lovers. But their personalities just don't blend so their romance fades away.

But, this is beautiful and could be real stars from Heaven.

Excellent job in its presentation.
