Review of Video memories  
Review by elephantsealer

Rated: E | (3.5)
"Video memories" is a short tale of remembering; and remembering not only the past but also the good days when families were together and having fun, enjoying birthday parties... as well as remembering the many good and new things that make our life easier...

"And also of those who love" is a piece of work that should remind us of the beauty of "love"; and on the other hand, makes us realize the evil of hatred and lost love. This tale tells of love that seemed to have lost its beauty; instead it turned into an evil act of killing. This tale would remind us that when the beauty of love turns into an evil act, we lose all sense of goodness and humanity.

Review of The Last Vein  
Review by elephantsealer
In affiliation with SENIOR CENTER GROUP  
Rated: 13+ | (3.5)
"The Last Vein" is a sad tale of human frailties but very much a story of greed and evil. It tells of Reg, who had no sense of family life and responsibilities to family. So he left that behind and got involved with an old miner, who gave him a load of Opal. As the saying goes, what you do to others, will be done to you; when he got killed by a man who was as greedy as Reg.

It is sad when greed touches the lives of people; and it is much more pitiful when one's life is viewed as a means to become rich... Where in heaven's name do we find total happiness???? This author's piece of work makes us realize that greed and irresponsibility are not the ways to a rich and happy life.

Healing is the most important word to someone who loses a husband as told in the short tale of "An Unexpected Journey". The tale tells of a wife who finds herself in a bus; and "praises God" for reminding her that she "must move on and begin to mend." We feel the sadness of someone losing a loved one; however, there is a thought of praising God as a reminder that in order to "move on" one gets to "begin to mend."

"Because You're Mine" tells of spells, love, witch, and magic. Whatever happened in between all these words, we realize that the man did marry the girl; is now awaiting the arrival of their first-born; as well as awaiting, anxiously it seems, if the baby will have the power of the mother. Does love actually and really put one in a spell?

It is easy and light to read and review as well as fascinating and interesting because the ending seems to imply: "...It'll be interesting to see what a baby does with that power."

Review of Crows  
Review by elephantsealer
In affiliation with SENIOR CENTER GROUP  
Rated: E | (3.5)
The appearance of black crows in the field of wheat, that was ready for harvest, seemed to have affected a farmer's thoughts as depicted in the "Crows". Sam the farmer felt dejected by the black crows in the wheat field; whereas Sarah, the wife, caught a bit of his "depressive state" of thoughts that maybe the harvest may not be as fruitful as he expected as well as Sarah's hope that the harvest would mean a release from "two years of drought", that would "wipe much of the debt".

This tale is sad, that hints of another "drought" even as the hopes of a good harvest seemed to have reminded the husband of a Van Goch's depiction of crows in the artist's last painting, and which followed the painter's decision to kill himself. Was it also in Sam's thoughts?

"In The Name of Love" tells of the worth, or rather, the worthlessness, of love. We go through a lot of things in our human life; and in our journeys we stop and face the many features that love brings to us. We are fortunate, though, that we are able to find love, lose it, becomes our failing, and still we love what love is...

I believe this tale is a very good example of the many facets that allows us to understand what loving and falling in love is...

"How I chanced upon my username." is a wonderful tale of a person who loves mountains; and therefore, took a mountain's name as his own. It is a pleasant writing about owning a popular name as well as a love of mountains...

Here's hoping the author would continue to write more about mountains, valley gardens, and hills.

"The Rule of the Forest" is a tale of "the hunter...became the hunted." It tells of a forest where things happen very quickly; of creatures that move without a sound as well as predators that "neglected the rule of the forest...to make a sound was to give away position."

It is a very good example of writing that does not waver in its purpose; and that is, to tell it as it happens... Quite a very good story...

Review of Where's Waldo?

"Where's Waldo?" is a tale of a man, who made a point to be on time with his job interview. Although he got delayed, he was hired because of what he did: and that was to help someone else get out of a stuck elevator.

This story is a very good example of how things happen out of the ordinary; and how it ends with a satisfactory result. We know of many stories aboout people who have successfully gotten hired just because they did their best to be on time. I would say this is a good deed that ended happily...

Reviewing "Joyie's Holiday Season!" reminded me of my yearly vacations at the village farm where my father was born. Having lived in the City, I did crave the farm life: slow, happy and complete with aunts, uncles, cousins, etc., etc. And I, for one, feel for Joyie.

However, Joyie could always suggest to her mother she would go and stay with her grandma, while her Mom goes abroad again... This little annecdote surely tells us that there are children who have learned to cope with their parents' decisions... Do we see here a well-behaved Joyie?????

"I've Done Something" is an easy and fun to read tale. It is a piece of writing that seems to emphasize the earnest and understanding between husband and wife. When I read the title, I thought there maybe some kind of trouble between Gordon and his wife, Shelly. A real interesting way Gordon thought of taking a vacation without first talking to his wife...

"Mr. Rabbit and Mr. Wolf - The Witch" is an interesting tale of anger (Mr. Wolf's intense anger at the old woman), of rudeness (Mr. Wolf called the woman (old and ugly), and of selfishness (Mr. Wolf actually said the mushrooms were his).

This short tale is a very good example of showing the many wrong things we do as humans; a tendency to anger, rudeness and selfishness... An interesting tale...

Review of Ella's Story  
Review by elephantsealer

Rated: E | (3.5)
"Ella's Story" is an interesting tale of an autistic girl, and her efforts to have a friend. When she met Rosie, it became clear that Ella was not the only girl without a friend, after all.

It is indeed sad when there are people like Ella and Rosie, girls who have come to feel and realize their inability to find friends as easily as others do. It happens more often than less because there are people who are naturally quiet and find it hard to speak and talk to others as well as people who are shy and timid...

Review of Home  
Review by elephantsealer

Rated: ASR | (3.5)
"Home" tells of a sad tale about a Dad who did not recognize his own son. How often do children face the reality of an aged parent who can no longer recognize his own children? I believe children (even at a young age) should be taught or rather should try and learn to understand the problem of how old age affects their parents. Probably when the parent gets to that age when forgetfulness sets in, a little bit of the sadness may not be so harsh...

This short narrative is interesting and should probably encourage children to learn all the things that may happen to their parents as they grow old...

The "Amazonian Umbrella Bird" is an interesting short write about a "mythical creature" that an explorer want to capture through his camera. It followed, however, that he lost his life when he became "debilitated by mosquitoes, leeches and exhaustion" as the creature watched him... Why do people get into such a degree of desire and yet they are unable to be successful? Is there some sort of madness in their minds?

"It's not real"is a sad tale of "Cassie" as she prepares for her birthday party, whose love of the use of "drugs" may have contributed to the death of her parents. Yet, she did not hesitate to partake more of the drugs during the party. In her pathetic state of a "dying brain", did she dream it when she lost her head when a "steel scythed through her slim neck"?

As I reviewed this work, I wondered if a "drug user" would continue the "habit" or would she/he stop using drugs?

What a fun way to buy a car... Gee, the idea of giving lifts to any Tom, Dick and Harry became a generous act of someone whose heart belongs in the right place...

To the writer of the "Curve in the Road", it was indeed an interesting read. I thought that short pieces of work, like this piece, should be welcomed because it would surely give us more ideas that is fun and interesting...

Review of The legends  
Review by elephantsealer

"The legends" is a sad piece of work: about someone who had to go "into the lonely mist" because of a legend. It is short but within its shortness there was someone who knows and accepts the truth of the "legend for an eternity". What made this work "utterly lonely" was the last passazge, "I strode away, into the lonely mist.", bringing to the reader/reviewer the strong sense of an "aloneness",its certainty of feeling... It is with hope that the author will continue to write and display her/his works in WDC...

Is there a chance at the present time for a boy with golden cleats play soccer? AS per the piece of writing, "The Enchanted Soccer Cleats", Mason, who is not a soccer player, became the best soccer player ever as he grew older, and as he continued to be the best among all soccer players. Just because of the golden soccer cleats.

As per the story, the cleats turned golden because two older players took a pair of old cleats that Mason was given. The two older players took Mason's old cleats, did some sort of magic to them, and asked their friend, Charlie, to give the cleats, that are now golden and new, back to Mason; and told Chairlie to tall Mason to go ahead and play soccer. And Mason played soccer and became the sensation of soccer for many years.

My question is: how can two old players become the "golden cleats" that Mason was given, and that gave him courage and success to become the greatest soccer player, even outplaying his own brother...

This is a great tale of encouragement to boys who think they are not soccer players at all...And maybe we shall read more of the author's works in the pages of Writing.Com....

Review of Paper, Lady?  
Review by elephantsealer

Rated: ASR | (3.5)
The shame and embarrassment of being "identified" as a criminal did interest me; so I reviewed "Paper, Lady?". My thoughts are: there must be a point at which policemen should determine first whether or not the person they were believed to be the "suspected" child taker. This tale shows how mistaken the policemen were; however, the shame and embarrassment that Clair Jarvis felt will never erase the public's knowledge of the event; and therefore the shame that fell on Claire is most damaging to her person...

Review of Pillow Fight  
Review by elephantsealer

I salute the writer of the "Pillow Fight"; short and to the point. The beginning of the story tells of a pillow being fluffed, rolled and pushed into a shape while in the same room another person was reading a book and started to get bothered by the person shaping a pillow so she can lay on it comfortably. And then a rather short discussion about the author of the book, which annoyed the book reader. In a sense, the pillow that was thrown at the pillow shaper was just the right answer to the question...

The mystery of two men in relation to one person untying a handkerchief is rather obvious. How, for example, would one person know there are two different men, who asked to help untie a handkerchief, while the person is so involved in untying the handkerchief, without even raising eyes to find out who was either standing or talking behind; and when it was done, how it became impossible for the person to even read and understand what was written on the handkerchief...Quite a mystery, yes??????

Review of Days of Yore  
Review by elephantsealer

Rated: 13+ | N/A (Review only item.)
Reviewing "Days of Yore" was interesting because it recalls the fun days when one was young and family-oriented. Remembering about childhood days and the many activities of youth becomes a lovely connection, a feeling of having lived somewhere before, that was filled with the love of families. This connection becomes a memory that strenghtens the love between family members as they grow into adulthood. An interesting concept...
