Hi Monty ! I am Aqua and the following are only my personal opinions. Ultimately, you and only you can decide what works best for your item. I was just looking through reviewers in the reviewers list when I saw your portfolio, I have seen you around WDC and I think I talked to you a few times too but I can't seem to remember so I thought of dropping by! This was the first item in your portfolio which immediately captured my attention. The title of your poem caught my eye because while the reader may think that the theme of the poem is very common, written very frequently, there is a story behind each of them. A person who is writing a spring poem might be inspired by the love that's in the air while on the other hand, another person might write a spring poem inspired by the new beginnings, new growths. Each has a different story yet the setting is the same and they could both be titled as "Spring Time". The starting of your poem is very creative. I love how you move away from the traditional use of words like 'paint a picture' or 'fill the blank canvas' and instead use the phrase 'stories fill up the pages.' The flow of your poem was very good, it wasn't too fast neither too slow. The rhythm was good and it was especially enhanced by the presence of the rhyming scheme. The last line made me smile because the immediate answer that came to my mind was "Of course! It's to write!" My favourite stanza was the third one. The process of writing and rewriting is continuous and it is never-ending. I love how you use the concept of a growing seed to compare the work and the activity of a poet, I simply loved it! Thank you for sharing your work with us! Write On! ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** My review has been submitted for consideration in "Good Deeds Get CASH!" .
