*Peace* ERRORS AND SUGGESTIONS: No spelling, punctual, or other mistakes were spotted, and although I think the poem would make for a better presentation if put into verses, I see that this is a style of your own, therefore have no suggestions for improvement. *Peace*

*RainbowL**RainbowR* OVERALL OPINION: This is a unique form. What I liked most though, is your view on those stuck in their own style. It is easy to see that you are a writer who stands on conviction. Well done! The best of luck to you!!!*RainbowL**RainbowR*

*Exclaim* ERRORS & SUGGESTIONS: No grammatical or other mistakes were noticed, and there are no suggestions I can think of for improvement other than giving the characters names so they would be easier to relate to. *Exclaim*

*Pencil* CHARACTERS & PLOT: The characters are relayed well, although as mentioned above, I think they would be easier to relate to if given names. Only a humble opinion though. *Smile* The storyline is outstanding. *Pencil*

*RainbowL**RainbowR* OVERALL THOUGHTS: You did a magnificent job of writing the story in a way that tugged at this readers heart. Tears literally came to my eyes when she recalled the feel of him and all they shared before his departure. The finale was the real tear-jerker, for so many soldiers and their survivors face this now as they strive to protect our country. *RainbowL**RainbowR*

*Smile* Please keep in mind that any suggestions made are only an opinion of this humble reader and intended to help, not to criticize. *Smile*

*Exclaim* ERRORS & SUGGESTIONS: The rhyming pattern is off in some of the verses. For example, "finances" and "differences"; "work" and "fork"; "weakness" and "difference"; and "lies" and "fly" do not follow the same rhythm as found in the other stanzas. "As they success in life together" should be "As they succeed in life together". "Insead" should be "Instead". *Exclaim*

*Pencil* CHARACTERS & PLOT: N/A *Pencil*

*RainbowL**RainbowR* OVERALL THOUGHTS: The message is relayed well in my personal opinion. Everything we do in life requires teamwork and striving to reach goals no matter how difficult they may be. Without a lot of faith and hard work, we lose our dreams. Good read! *RainbowL**RainbowR*

Please keep in mind that any suggestions made are intended to help, not to criticize your work. *Smile* Welcome to Writing.com!

*Pencil* ERRORS AND SUGGESTIONS: It was rubber" should be "They were rubber" instead being as walls is plural. "a sea foam" should be "sea foam". A comma should come after "of heaven" with "heaven" capitalized. Just an opinion, but I think "I" is used too frequently in the paragraph. Deleting some and reconstructing the sentences would make for a better read in my opinion. For example, something like this: "....I could muster, and screamed."??? *Pencil*

*Note1* CHARACTERS AND PLOT: The characters are defined well, although I think they would be easier to relate to if given names, and the storyline good. *Note1*

*Check2* MY THOUGHTS: You did a super job of expressing the main characters emotions, and just as well in describing the settings. My favorite paragraph is the one about the individual dreaming about the ocean and natural surroundings. *Check2*

SIMPLY POSITIVE GROUP LEADER

Please keep in mind that any suggestions made are intended to help, not to criticize your work. *Smile* Welcome to Writing.com!

*Idea* ERRORS: Many punctual errors were noticed. For example, no comma is needed after "crack of dawn", "high and mighty", and a comma follow "give me some money". A period should replace the comma after "on everywhere", "it" capitalized, a period replace the comma following "back alley", and "apparently" capitalized with a comma following it. *Idea*

*Exclaim* SUGGESTIONS: The first sentences of paragraph one are ones that I feel would read better like so: "I woke up at the crack of dawn just like I did every day to an empty room in a tunic that's getting a little snug and pain in my lower back." "my" could be deleted before "my bed" being as readers already know whose bed it it from the sentences read before it. *Exclaim*

*Star* WHAT I LIKED: I thought the feelings the main character had for the child Trunusca had the officials take away were as heartwarming as the last several sentences in the final paragraph. It is too bad the emotions were not voiced instead of only thought about. Good story! *Star*

*Idea* ERRORS: A question mark should replace the period following "company policy".
No comma is needed after "Next time" or "Head Office".
"Sir" needs no capitalization.
A comma should replace the period following "sorry, Sir" and one come after "Actually".
No comma is needed after "tasted good".
"atleast" should be "at least" instead.
No hyphen is needed in "air-conditioner".
A comma should follow "my face away".
A comma should come after "gush of happiness".
"I leave nearby" should be "I live nearby".
There is an unnecessary space between "on the first" and "evening in my house,".
No comma is needed following "kilometers every day".
There is an unnecessary space between "I checked" and "myself", and "me sad, but I" and "couldn't bring myself...".
I learnt" should be "I learned".
A comma should follow "son today", "otherwise all I would have" should be "otherwise I would have" and "forever" cut.
A comma should come after "education".

*Idea*


*Exclaim* SUGGESTIONS: Just a humble suggestion, but I would change the sentence beginning with "Next time" to "The next time" instead. I feel it reads better that way.
I think "reaching out for a second one" would read better like this: "reaching for a second one".
"Her soft voice when she spoke" would make for a better read to me if worded like so: "Her soft voice had a plaintive...".
I would choose a better way to describe Abena's son than "The little creature".
I would change "I turned my face away" to "I turned away". *Exclaim*


*Note1* MY THOUGHTS: Neil, Rosa, and the other characters are defined well, and the storyline good. I was certain Neil and Abena would become an item, and was pleased with the memories he had of her and the gift she gave him. Theirs was not a love to be with so many obstacles. Good story! *Note1*

Many have forgotten the facts relayed in the piece about the colonists and how hard the fight for freedom was and still is, along with the Civil Rights Movement. I especially liked the paragraphs about your own fight for freedom and women's rights. Thank you for sharing this with us. *Pencil*

*Check4* OVERALL OPINION: The imagery used in describing the settings and characters is super, as is Christine and Summer's mission. Christine's concern about the children tugged at my heartstrings. Summer is an abrupt person that would not be easy to communicate with. I was elated when Christine stood up to her. My favorite character was Kalvin. He had a good attitude and the right idea about teamwork. Good story! *Check4*
