Guess whose fantasy item popped up on the Random Reads as I was flitting here and there to party? Yay! Yours and it has fairies who are favourites of mine so..I had to read about your Fairy Kingdom! 
And no words beginning with A. What fun and no "and's" . 
The tale begins with vivid action and sets up the conflict and two main characters in the first paragraph. You also clued us in to the fact of the girl's loneliness, which also turns out to be a problem. I wanted to know what the warning sound for fairies was. 
In case, I needed as I play Tinkerbell in the WDC party Masquerade Event. 
I was charmed by the fairies and Miranda as they performed their mission.
My review has been submitted for consideration in "
I was sailing by on the pirate ship with me parrot eye on the ports and spied this new land so I flew from the mast for a look! Shiver me timbers, it looks so fine! And all decked out with a pretty pink flaf no less! So here I be! 
I thought of the Land of OZ-nice play!
Now I must away and leave this fair land of Ons, and not give away any secret of the tresaure to be found here. I will, fer sure, be passing this around to me mates as I travel! 
Or Review fer a ticket!
Spruce it up and enter it into the "
The descriptions were vivid and I could feel his vibe as his family was killed and he struggles with the life he has now--the indecision of whether he was lucky or not. I liked when he did the samba to feed the boy. Clever image!
A few suggestions though I am not a pro:
Thanks for sharing this moving and educational story. 
You narrate the tale with great detail so I could really visualize the events and things like the cat menagerie and castle. It is amazing to beable to show the scenes and explain the chaos so effectively. 
I like how you spread the events of life with the possum over several years using evocative subtitles! The events you chose were so vivid. I had to laugh at the night in the kitchen!! Unbelievable. 
And the day he curled up at your feet as if to say good bye is so heartwarming!
The writing is coherent and the voice is consistent to the end. The emotional intensity changes with each event and I could enter into the scenes with ease. I do notice you use "ly" adverbs, which seem to be not favoured now though I know what they mean. LOL You did use maybe too many at once in paragraph 12. 
The plot line was clear and the tension rose increasingly til the end. The setting at a future time was well shown in the buildings, gadgets and thoughts of the main character as he observes the world on the speed of light train. I really enjoyed the futuristic atmosphere where certain taboos are passee yet other ones rose to replace them as in the aging one. 
I hope our world never comes to this! You lose, or lose. 
I was drawn to the title as I do enjoy mythology! 
The idea of a saga was appealing and using the sonnet form intriguing! 
I like how you begin in a lighthearted way and get the anticipation of the carver. The punctuation in the last line of verse one is effective and it makes it seem like we are hanging on... and unexpected happens. Good call.
If you wanted to spruce it up, I wonder how many other words for "like" you could find to make each task you perform alone, appear more vibrant..rather than just the rather over used word "like". Just something I thought about. Not sure how it would be though. 
I found this fun title in the animal genre list and thought that is was a fitting name for dogs that do guard their homes. The poem is delightful and I think children would like it as well. Good choice of genre indicators! 
The flow skips along smooth and quick and I appreciate the sing song quality of the lines. The two verses are balanced and have a consistent rhyming pattern that adds to the flow and fun of the read. You have one off rhyme in verse one that might be tweaked. 
In the third line the word "were" is spelled "where" for a place as opposed to the the verb "were".
Thanks for sharing this evocative poem that made me ponder. I am curious about more details now. 
Wow! This is a potent and vivid expression with clear image of this hunted woman and shows the essence of a time when healers, or magical types were deemed witches. Very dramatic in tone with good details. I like the personification of the goddess and tree. Powerful idea.
Some glitches in spelling/grammar that I noticed: 
I noticed a couple of typos: In the first line : "awoken" should be "awoke". and in the last line "iea" needs to be "idea". 
The imagery is vivid and the aura is potent as one is drawn into the sorrow. The theme is one I am sure noone wants to contemplate, yet it happens. I ownder if the title could be more relevant as the word Memories is so generic. 
The last line of your intro is a bit off grammatically with the phrase "as animals" at the end.
I look forward to more of the story.
The description of the the children is vivid. I did wonder about the one not being given a name, at least initially as a baby in the home. I think someone would have had to look after him as a baby or he would have died. In the writing about him it seems like you do jump a bit ahead when you say he was not well liked etc.
Hope you enjoy WDC and the upcoming 16th Birthday Bash!
