Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted

I hear a lot about Puerto Rico, not so much about the Virgin Islands, when they talk about hurricanes. I enjoy your people-picture poems. Excellent.

Yes, Puerto Rico gets most of the attention but the Islands got hit hard too and have kind of been forgotten - the lost child of the US. Thanks so much.

Good imagery for this ladies devastation in life. to the current ways she lives by and for the humanity choice from others to see and help her out.
Maybe a tad choppy but doesn't take away from your meaning throughout the poem.

Hello, :)
How was your vacation there? Hope it was great.
A lot of people won't leave home because of a natural disaster. I remember Hurricane Katrina -- well people couldn't afford to leave, which is different. May blessings be with all.

Vacation was great and they need the tourism to help their economy recover. Thanks for the great review:)

Kindness is a wonderful
word when we help one another
within our world
Many are very hungry within
our world and very cold
we should all count our blessings.

Wonderful descriptions in your poem, Teresa. There are sure some people we meet who stays with us always. I'm glad you met the chocolate lady and had the time to write and share your thoughts about her.
Smiles,
Karyn :-)

Teresa,
You did a great job showing readers this lady with your well-chosen words. I like the short lines They quicken the pace. She seems like one with great strength to withstand the hardships that have come her way. I could picture this lady in my mind. Good job & thanks for sharing & caring. Jan

Hi Teresa. I like to people watch, too. So many interesting humans out there to write about. I enjoyed reading your poem. I hope you had a wonderful time on your trip. Marilyn

Thank you Marilyn. We had a wonderful time. It is sad to see the conditions of houses though that people are still living in and some still without electricity.

Some people are highly independent and will refuse outside help. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a very good read. There is good imagery.
