Review of Travelin Minstrel  
Review by Gideon Thomas
Rated: E | (4.5)
I really like this a lot. I'm a huge Bob Dylan fan, and I think what I liked the most about it was that you really captured Dylan's style in the quatrains. I could completely imagine this being read in the 1960s Bob Dylan drawl. It flows in a way similar to Subterranean Homesick Blues.

Review of Morning Beauty  
Review by Gideon Thomas
Rated: E | (4.0)
This isn't a critique in that I'm going to analyze the poem to bits, but I wanted to point out that your diction is beautiful. I especially loved the first stanza. The comparison of sunlight to water is lovely, and I really liked the thought of "cascading" sunlight. By comparing the sunlight to water, you really helped to create an impression of the rising sun being something refreshing, which is really a concept I'd never considered before.

Review of "Questions"  
Review by Gideon Thomas
Rated: E | (3.0)
This is a nice, if saddening poem. It's obviously written from the heart. I like that the poem is so blunt and honest. The last line "Or are they hanging in the trees?" reminds me of Blowin' in the Wind by Bob Dylan. However, there are a few mistakes (I'm assuming they are mistakes and not stylistic decisions) in terms of verb conjugation. "All these questions just isn't fair," should be "All these question just aren't fair". Also "Is there any answers for me?" should be "Are there any answers for me?"

Little things, but nicer grammar and language really does improve a poem a lot.
