Fascinating! I have never heard of this style of poetry writing; I will have to check it out!

You sound like a very happy person, how nice. To meet to many real happy folks these days.

Your poem seems complete in thought as it gives to read so many things to think about.

I am wondering if there really is a pink beach (how does it get like that?).

Best to you and your family with the holidays coming up.

Review of Coronation  Open in new Window.

Rated: E | (5.0)
A cute poem. Bring all that royal glory to the front. I never think much about the royalty and never watch the ceremonies. I do occasionally watch what goes on in their chambers. Those folks speak their piece; it is fun to watch.

Very nice, thanks,

Wow, that is hard to imagine. How many kittens did she have. I could see carring one, possibly two but, ?? How far did she travel (miles)? Amazing story.

I really like this poem and is does reflex us, the person looking in the mirror. It flows well and has a kind of bounce in its flow, which I like. Just a poem!

Hi Chris,

I think most of us have had to deal with IRS at sometime or another. Great writing prompt.
I like how you have it flowing, giving details as to what can happen in that nasty world.
The last two lines are the best as it is so true.

Best wishes on your continued success.

Review of Wyvern  Open in new Window.
Review by Seabreeze Author IconMail Icon
Rated: 13+ | (5.0)
Wow Beholden! Where do I begin? First I must admit, I had to look up the word Wyvern. Griffins, I am aware of and gargoyles I love. I am not a big fan of mythical creatures though but I stopped to read because of the title of your story. I guess I have always been like that since I was old enough to brouse libraries (we still have them). Its fun to find out about the unknown.

As I read through, words started to grab! Or I should say phrases; who doesn't love a good phrase? I love how you used:

metaphorical diapers
deserve repayment
extracting vengeance
extant wyvern eggs (made me think of an Easter egg hunt)

I could not find a meaning for Erraghansic so I will assume that is your creation!

In any case, I followed most of the plot of the story but at certain areas I was not sure if your were rooting for the dragons or the humans, maybe both. I was still curious enough to hang in there. Because of your story, I just might investigate more mystical characters.

I was fascinated by the whole story, its creativity and truly felt it deserved a badge and so I immediately sent you one (I don't normally move that fast).

Overall, I had fun and will peruse your site for some more jewels!

Thanks for the adventure,

Beneath the Surface is an amazing anology describing what many of us have heard about mental illness. I must say I have never experience the illness first hand as I have not known or have had anyone in my family with mental illness. But you have laid out a picture in your poem that seems to encompass all the challenges one must deal with. This is a great way to share with the world the issue.

Your words so carefully outline what goes on at the same time giving hope where there is so much darkness. I would hope this poem has been shared with support groups and family members of those who are afflicted with mental illness.

Thanks for sharing this important poem. Blessings to you and your family.

Exciting! This is one poem form I am not acquainted with. To think that poetry would be blessed by the subject of food. There is no end to its creation. I guess we could dress up just about any food we may not like, say, egg plant!

You have done very well with it. I hope it won recognition.

Review of Bully  Open in new Window.
Review by Seabreeze Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (4.0)
Interesting poem on Bulling. I believe we have all experienced some of it at some point in our lives. How we react to bulling is so important. If we do embrace it then it becomes a nightmare. If we overly approach it, we may become as one who does the deed. Your poem brings out some of the ways it can influence us for good or bad.

It is a good write, thanks for sharing.

I love your short story. The concept...who would think of feeding air to someone. Very clever!
It's the type of story that could go on, become more. You have done well with the dialogue. I don't have any suggestions as to how to embellish on it.

Welcome again, newbie!

Review of Harvest Ball  Open in new Window.

Wow, very impressive. I have to admit that I had no idea about the format of a Kyrielle poem and the work that goes into its construction! So, I did look it up and now I have a new style to try, thanks.

I love the fact that the last line is repeated because I like its sound and what it brings. And I love its rhyme aspect! I guess, one has to besure they check and double check that they have the right combinations of syllables. In any case, well done!!

Review of Wheat  Open in new Window.
Review by Seabreeze Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (5.0)
Poetry allows us to examine life. Take your wheat. It tells us that in the wind, even mild, we see it moving in a breeze. I think of wheat that way cause we see mostly when moving. I love your "silent seas" as it is like an ocean when you see large fields of grain. And, yes - cut down in its prime so that it can do its magic for those who process it! Wonderful poem.

Rated: E | (5.0)
This type of poetry is so much fun. I love yours as it gives us everything we would want to acknowledge in seed! What I really like about a Diamente is that it can point out to us about life, life of a particular subject. It gives us a more focus on the parts of a subject. Great job on this one.

A lovely poem. Who does not want His everlasting, heavenly and beautiful light? His return will surely bring us that!

You have captured the essence of what our Lord wants for us and what he provides for us, His children. If we could only see it; we need to open our eyes wider.

Your poem is well written having good flow, pulling in its reader as your beautiful descriptive words guide us. Not much more I can say. I love it!

Very cute. I love animal stories. There is always something we humans can learn from such tales. Here I am reminded that no matter how different we are, we all want to be treated equal, have friends and want to care and love each other. We just need to learn how to do it better.

Thanks,

An amazing heart tugging story and so well written. We must, as we read, try to put ourselves in this position. Otherwise, how can we possibly understand or have the compassion that is needed.

Thank you for writing this and sharing it. My blessings go out to Kathie,

What adorable story. I remember my son's 2nd grade teacher, he had a crush on her. I don't remember if he ever got a kiss though.

I had a crush on one of my high school teachers, history, Mr. Borum. He was from Oklahoma and he had one of those drawls. Dark hair and handsome. I started out with a D grade and ended it with a B - just for him I remember, ha, ha.

Thanks for bringing back memories,

Seabreeze
