Some Reviews have received POEM - Wings of Angels
Hope is always found in the aftermath of an emotional thunderstorm. It is truly in those inclement
moments that the rainbow that follows is completely appreciated. Winds of doubt give way to whispers of affirmation and hail stones of grief melt in the dawning rays of beauty and acceptance.
Wonderful piece, with inspirational and true concepts behind it.

The Ups and Downs of Writing
I love the dicotmy of the piece. The ups and the downs are quite riveting and pretty realistic. Are we all manic depressives?. I actually have to grit my teeth and have my wife read mine. She is very thorough and ruthless. It works out pretty well
Writers write to understand and be understood

POEM - The Shell
It can be touched
It could touch me"
There's a definite sense of vulnerability here. It seems, to me at least, that this is a poem about growing up and leaving, perhaps, the safe haven of home, to experience the good and bad of reality.

POEM - Garden of the Gods
It is very honest, and appears to speak from the soul. The allusion to the Garden Of the Gods is an illusive magical place for me, and I have one pictured here in my mind.
Victoria McCullough
The whole has a lovely, lyrical, romantic sound.
I like the refrain . . .
"we have spread our blanket
In a place called the
Garden of the Gods"
. . . it has the sounds of an intimate and ethereal experience.
Thea Sophies
Very moving poem

Article - 40 Something
Loved your story! It could have summed up a day in my life and you had my feelings pegged to the T! I found your piece so interesting that I stopped looking at spelling and grammar and just focused on the words. The story completely drew me in and held me. Hope to read much more of your writing in the future. Keep up the great work!

Thank you for sharing it is a piece I can truly relate with. Quite practical and border lining humor. I found the writing to be encouraging and lends toward bonding with the author. That was pretty cool.
You write very well; your style comes through nicely and is complimentary.

This is a beautifully written piece about "coming of age," so to speak You have taken a very stressful time in most people's lives and made it read as a rather humorous accounts of self-realization. You most definitely have a way with words!

Save Me
Yes, that is a very fervant prayer, written, no doubt, in the depths of despair.
