Hello, Mike Writes aka Soldier Mike!

INITIAL IMPRESSION / OVERVIEW:

I read your emotional "live and love" poem soon after you wrote it and loved it.

Your writing kept me riveted and I read straight through to the end.



MORE DETAILED FEEDBACK:

As I said above, I read this "live and love" poem of yours sometime in the past and enjoyed it. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to review it right then, so I flagged it for an anniversary review (meaning I saved the link to it in a special "April" file. ). But April came and went and, well, better a non- anniversary review now than no review ever, right? I hope you enjoy this review as a celebration of your time here and find the review uplifting and encouraging.

Wow, what a powerful poem. I could feel both the deep grief and the beginnings of healing. I think anyone who has lost, or fears the loss of a loved one would relate to this poem and appreciate it.

I will pray again for you and your family right now, before moving on with this review. May the Lord bless, guide, protect, and comfort each of you. May He provide for all of your needs, and strengthen your relationships. May you feel His great love for you.

My favorite stanza was the love one, and I think it was all the more powerful for following the life one.

Love is indeed, "a great gift."

I didn't notice any spelling or grammatical mistakes (or mistakes of any kind) in your "live and love" poem.

I thought you did a great job with the form and I appreciated the drop down note reminding me of it and also explaining the prompt. I think I did that round of the challenge with you, but there have been many weeks in between that prompt and the current one. That reminds me... I need to write the current week's poem. Are you in this round? I really need to check out my peers' writing more often.


IDEAS TO MAKE YOUR PIECE STRONGER:
I would love to have something great to share here, but I think it's wonderful as it is. Well done!


CONCLUSION:
I enjoyed reading your "live and love" poem, and empathized with you for what you went through.

Thank you for sharing your time, creativity, heart, experiences, and writing with the Writing.Com community!

Happy super-belated anniversary month! I hope the year ahead is filled with peace, blessings, and joy for you!

May love, joy and peace be yours in abundance!
