Review 1 of 3 gifted to you through "Invalid Item" 


BASICS:
The title, description, rating, and chosen genres all fits this poem perfectly.

DYNAMICS:
I love the form in which you've chosen to present this piece; it allows the reader to easily follow the whole story without unnecessary details. Your own emotions come through clearly and can easily be felt by your reader. The imagery is simple and, for the most part, non-specific, so every reader can just fall right into it as they read. Everything, throughout this story, is just so... real. There's no other word for it, Judy. It's not often that such real pieces can be found.

SPECIFICS:
I noticed just a few little grammatical errors/typos/suggestions to note:

Paragraph 2: two-month[-]old baby: Hyphenation here to help link the words together as one thought?

Paragraph 3: "...in need[.]" I replied.: Here, I think that replacing this period with a comma would smooth out the flow a bit... (Or remove 'I replied' as it is kind of assumed..?)

Paragraph 6: teen[-]ager: no need for hyphen... teenager...

Paragraph 7: In this paragraph, there are two different speakers. I think that starting a new paragraph when you speak would improve the clarity and flow.

Visit:
Paragaph 1: Skinny as....: While I readily felt this description and it gives wonderful imagery to the reader, the sentence is actually incomplete. Perhaps add 'She was' before the description?

Paragraph 2: matter[-]of[-]factly: Could be a force of habit, but I think that hyphenation would help to link these words together as one...

Paragraph 2: I think that separating one speaker from another in different paragraphs would help the reader to distinguish and follow each character's voice.

FURTHER THOUGHTS:
This spoke more volumes to me than I will ever be able to say. I was a foster child, as a baby. I was adopted. And, I thank God that I was. This really hit home. (And, to be honest, I found out yesterday that my biological mother who has always been in my life and was pretty much a foster child to my parents... she's in jail now. She deserves it and she should've known better, but your story worked beautifully with my heart to make me cry and make me REALLY appreciate my life. THANK YOU!)

OVERALL:
This is well-written and incredibly emotional. A piece like this cannot be measure by stars; Instead, perhaps I should mail you a jar of tears... It's filled with reality and hope... And I will keep Karen in my prayers. I know that you will always remain in her heart, even if she was too you to remember your name.

Review 2 of 5 from your auction win


BASICS:
The title and rating fit this poem perfectly, however, the description might benefit from a word or two of insight into the poem and the chosen genre (Other) could be replaced.

DYNAMICS:
I love the simplicity of this poem and all of the complexity that you have found in just that one tick of the clock! I could feel myself getting lost in that short span of time between today and tomorrow/ yesterday and today. The ABCB rhyme scheme worked wonderfully with your words to keep the flow smooth from beginning to end without any rhymes feeling forced or the feeling of any 'hiccups' in the flow! Everything was simple to follow, understand, and get lost in... I found it quite enchanting!

SPECIFICS:
I did not notice any grammatical errors or typos, but I do wonder about a semi-colon being added to the end of Stanza Four, Line Three since two complete ideas are expressed here, but are still linked together.

FURTHER THOUGHTS:
This made me kind of sleepy, lol... That's a good thing! It relaxed me, yet left me wide-eyed and waiting for the excitement of a new day --just like Midnight!

OVERALL:
This poem is very well-written and creative! I love it!

Review 2 of 3 from your friend 🦄🏳️‍🌈Sapph


BASICS:
The title, description, rating, and chosen genres all fit this poem perfectly.

DYNAMICS:
This is frightening, very scary to think about! The vivid imagery throughout this piece adds to the intensity of fear that someday... *Worry* The flow was throughout and you stuck well to the chosen form. The poem did, however, somehow feel a bit incomplete. I don't know why, but I was left wanting to know more.

SPECIFICS:
I did not notice any grammatical errors or typos.

FURTHER THOUGHTS:
*Runs and hides in fear* Ya know, I could see you turning this into one nightmare-inspiring story!

OVERALL:
This poem is well-written and creative. The gray color works well with your words to set the mood, however, it can be a bit of strain on the eyes. *Blush* All in all, though, another wonderful display of your talent for bringing your reader into the scene you lay out!

Review 5 of 5 from your friend SHERRI GIBSON


BASICS: (title, description,...)
The title, description, rating, and chosen genres all fit this poem perfectly.

DYNAMICS: (emotion, imagery,...)
The emotion throughout this poem was simple to feel. I felt pain, heartache, want, desire... happiness and love! The imagery was wonderful; it was very easy to envision everything as I read!

TECHNICALS: (grammar, flow, format,...)
The only grammatical error/ typo noticed was in Stanza Four, Line 1: There should be a comma after the second hand since this is being said to dear. The ABCB rhyme scheme worked wonderfully with your words to keep the flow smooth from beginning to end without any rhymes feeling forced. Everything was simple to follow and understand throughout the poem.

PERSONAL VIEWS: (suggestions, thoughts,...)
Sure, I should have read this two days ago, lol, but I'm reading it now. *Pthb* This poem really warmed my heart. I love that it not only tells a story, but also has a little message for life in it. (Ya know, the best things are sometimes right in front of our faces and we just can't see them...).

OVERALL:
This poem is very well-written and it was just a pleasure to read! I love it!

This poem was easy to feel as well as relate to! Your words made my mind's eye flood with memories of nice, peaceful days. Great job!

DYNAMICS: (emotion, imagery,...)
As I read this poem, I was creeped out, freaked out, and disgusted! The imagery was superb; everything was simple to see!

TECHNICALS: (grammar, flow, format,...)
I did not notice any grammatical errors or typos. The mono-rhymed, eight-syllable lined tercets worked perfectly with your words to keep the flow smooth from beginning to end! Of course, with my accent, 'smile' always sounds like two syllables, but that's a me thing. lol. *Blush* Maybe that's why I never use the word in my poems. lol.

PERSONAL VIEWS: (suggestions, thoughts,...)
I didn't see this coming! I was absolutely angered and disgusted! PERFECT job with making the reader feel!

OVERALL:
This poem is wonderfully written and... just perfect! I got a laugh from this that I REALLY was not expecting! The build-up of emotions and scenes made the ending just hit harder! PERFECT! *Wink*

*Before I start this review, Shannon, I would like to let you know that I've already done it! 2/2:30am I was in bed read and reviewing this piece. Apparently, I lost that review somehow... GRRR... So, here we are again. *Pthb* (Anyone else, and I would've moved on with my life! Lol)

BASICS: (title, description,...)
The title, description, and rating all fit this poem perfectly. The chosen genre, however, (Other) could be changed... Perhaps 'Experience'?

DYNAMICS: (emotion, imagery,...)
This was creepy and hysterical! I'm glad to hear that you came out okay and weren't caught! *Shock**Wink* The imagery is absolutely wonderful! Everything was clear and easy to see. Unfortunately, for me, this is also easy to fall into since this is something that I'd think would only happen to me! *Laugh* In the wee hours of the morning, I had also typed to let you know that it's very rare that something actually makes me laugh out loud when I read –especially when Hubby and one of the dog's are sleeping beside me in bed. This however, had me just plain bust out laughing! And with only an evil eye from the dog! *Delight*

TECHNICALS: (grammar, flow, format,...)
During the drive[,]: I think adding a comma here might improve the flow/clarity of the sentence.

Other than that little thing, I did not notice any grammatical errors or typos. This flowed wonderful –a nice calm pace, and then a hurried one which added to the ambiance of the story! Everything was easy to follow and I really felt like I was right there with you!

PERSONAL VIEWS: (suggestions, thoughts,...)
Ahh... Someone else who drinks 2% (I'm so trying to remember everything I said fifteen hours ago! Lol)! That's all I can drink and no one EVER has it in their house! *scream* (Some odd variation of lactose intolerance, lol).

TECHNICALS: (grammar, flow, format,...)
[10] chicken: ten –spell it out, lol, especially since you spelled out 'twelve'.

Oh … my … : Maybe skip an extra line before this paragraph to show the passing of time?

day[']s end: possessive since the end belongs to day...?

This flowed right along! Everything that simple to follow and understand. I love how the pace seemed to change a few times; fast at some points, slow and agonizing at others! Well done!!!

I've never had surgery and this essay definitely didn't make me plan a trip under the knife any time soon! *Pthb*

BASICS: (title, description,...)
The title, description, rating, and chosen genres all fit this poem perfectly.

DYNAMICS: (emotion, imagery,...)
This poem is incredibly emotional. Both heartwarming and sad, this poem put tears in my eyes right from the beginning. The simple imagery was easy to envision making this heartbreaking, heartwarming and yanked on my heartstrings.

TECHNICALS: (grammar, flow, format,...)
I did not notice any grammatical errors or typos. The ABAB rhyme scheme and steady 9-7-9-7 syllable count kept everything flowing smoothly without any rhymes feeling forced. The only line in which the syllable count felt off was Stanza 1, Line 3 where there seemed to be a syllable missing.

Review 1 of 5


BASICS: (title, description,...)
The title, description, rating, and chosen genres all fit this poem perfectly.

DYNAMICS: (emotion, imagery,...)
This poem is simple to feel. The beautiful thought behind it helps your words to really stir the reader's feelings and made them sit, think, and reflect. The imagery felt rather reader-driven, making memories flash before the reader's eyes to make this a poem that is simple to relate to.

TECHNICALS: (grammar, flow, format,...)
I did not notice any grammatical errors or typos, but I do think that adding punctuation throughout this poem would help guide the reader's voice a bit more. The AABB rhyme scheme worked well with your words to keep everything moving and the flow smooth from beginning to end. The only rhyme that felt forced and come/alone in Stanza Three.

PERSONAL VIEWS: (suggestions, thoughts,...)
I think I know where this poem came from. *Wink* I was left wondering why I hadn't read it in print on a last page or back cover of a certain book... *Pthb*

OVERALL:
Simple to feel and containing a beautiful message, this poem really speaks volumes. While I think that the flow could be improved with the addition of punctuation, that's a personal-preference-thing, isn't it? *Pthb* This is truly a wonderful poem and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it!

Review 4 of 5 from your friend JACE - House Targaryen !


BASICS: (title, description,...)
The title, description, rating, and genres all fit this poem perfectly!

DYNAMICS: (emotion, imagery,...)
This had a very peaceful feeling as I read it --and, I'm sure, not only because I LOVE Winter and snowfall! lol. Feelings of calmness and excitement both came clearly through your words, but [for a change, lol], the imagery was really the strong point of this poem! You set the scene for your reader and he/she is easily pulled into it to have their own feelings stirred while reading yours! An undertone of sensuality is also easily felt, making the reader's mind's eye go crazy for memories!

TECHNICALS: (grammar, flow, format,...)
I did not notice any grammatical errors or typos. The free verse form worked well with your words to keep the flow smooth from beginning to end.

PERSONAL VIEWS: (suggestions, thoughts,...)
To me, the ending felt to too abrupt. While this poem feels complete, I still think that you could add another couplet or two to make it even more enchanting.

OVERALL:
This is a creative and well-written poem, but I'd really love to see more to it! You pushed me out the peaceful scene far too soon!

PERSONAL VIEWS: (suggestions, thoughts,...)
I would love to read Roses's story. *Wink* Oh! And, while I'm at it, lol, the note about the name being changed kind of stopped me for a minute; I think that it could be moved as a little footnote. *Wink*

OVERALL:
This is charming and well-written! I am amazed at how many different emotions were put into such a short piece! Wonderful!

*Heart*,
