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

Lovely poem about your daughter. Just found one thing - should the last sentence read A beloved daughter that I call my Heavin Lee Rain rather than a call my Heavin?
Sound poem otherwise! edieas

Share His Love by William Ross

Excellent

I really like this poem. Of course, most faith-based I do enjoy. I just noted one thing I might suggest you look at. Would it be better if you said "strive to" rather than "strife to" in that next to last sentence? Just a thought. And thanks for the read. edieas

Trumpet by jonathan1

Excellent

I think this is a splendid effort for your first piece! I am honored you asked me to review your work. These two sentences "A beginners pause as your lungs swell,
lucky there is beauty from my bell." are a bit out of rhythm with the rest of the poem. Listen and you can hear it, too. But this is NOT to stop you. You do have talent my friend - just need some practise. My best advise is to be your best ear. You will receive lots of advise out here but ultimately you are your own best judge. Best of luck and welcome to our group! edieas

A Soldier's Life by LisaD123

Excellent

I grew up Army brat and this sort of mentality permeates the entire household. Be yourself as long as the door is closed but use decorum beyond the gate. I know how hard it is to live like this. Thanks so much for the read. I really appreciated it. edieas

Withstand by AlexG94

Excellent

I love how a Haiku forces the writer to be concise and understandable. I like "cracked concrete" and
verdant resistance. Nice job! edieas

Daddy's Girl by Michael Bowman

Excellent

Very nice little poem. I was a daddy's girl so this means a lot to me. "...
I'm Daddy's girl
I have no fear
When you return
I'm waiting here
This Daddy's girl's...
Very nice. Thanks for the read!

Grace by Chris Walker

Excellent

Refusing to surrender to this
merciless disease,
I face Medusa's fury.
Taking grace with me
I let her see me."
I like this stanza best. It offers hope in the face of a terrible disease. Kudo's to you. edieas
