I would say that the beginning and the end of a poem are most important.
The beginning has to catch the readers attention and make them want to keep reading.
The end has to leave them wanting more.
The beginning was okay, nothing special.
The end...Talking about hearts is always cliche.
Overall I like the idea of the poem.
Just remember to make the beginning and end catchey and unique and you should do alright.
This poem has a good image, but you have to paint the image for the reader.
I need to be able to walk right beside you as you missed your time.
Why did you miss your appointed time? who missed the appointed time, you or him?
I've read so many poems that talk about breaking hearts and such.
I'm sure you could find another way to get your point accross with out saying you have a broken heart.
"My heart is broken and torn"
That being said, I liked the idea of the poem.
Good job and keep writing!
This was interesting. I was intrigued by the word soldiers.
I'm a soldier currently in Afghanistan.
If it wasn't for that word this would have been of no interest to me.
I must say that when you said, "..they die by the tens,.."
I already knew you were going to use the term "tens of thousands"
That was a little predictable, but other than that it kept my attention.
Good job and keep writing!
5. on the first day of spring. Love it!!
"...the way it pulls from her face when fanned by the turning of a page."
