Review of Beautiful  Open in new Window.
Review by Emma Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (3.5)
I really enjoy the form of this poem. While short, it gets a lot across.

In the first stanza I love the idea of not being beautiful "for any reason or any person." It's a very strong personal statement and a forceful way to begin a poem. I also enjoy the thought "I am lost, forever dimmed, muddled, and helpless." It flows extremely well.

I'm not sure I like the last stanza as much as the rest of the poem. Since the word "changing" is used in the second stanza, I think you should use a different word than "change" to keep the wording fresh (since the poem is so short). I also think it would have been stronger with perhaps a different verb than "weep," which is too common for the emotion you are trying to convey, in my opinion.

Overall, this was a very good poem. Keep writing!

I love you. You just gave me a candlelit dinner with Johnny Depp.

You rock.
