*RainbowL**RainbowR*Hello, Allycat70 . Here is,

Review of " Absolutely nothing!"

*DropV* Impressions I had to read your poem twice, just to make sure that I understood the whole message and that I didn't miss any word. It is so powerful and so real! Congratulations!




*DropR* CharactersIt appeared to me that it is a dialogue between a mom and a dad, arguing about their son. The dad asks forgiveness for allowing their son to go to war, maybe, and end with PTSD. He appears to have regretted pushing his son to do so. Mom, on the other hand, refuses to forgive him and accuses him of indifference, and for leading him there.


*DropY* Writing style
It is formed like a dialogue. What distinguishes the two parts is "for gods sake forgive me!""I'll never forgive you." It is an angry and accusing poem, but ends with a sensitive and heart-breaking image, the way a mother sees her child and it also shows the special bond between father and son.


*DropG* Notes None


*DropP* Favorite lines
"I'll never forget my little boy"
" the hope that one day,
his eyes once again dance with joy."
I have a little boy. I can relate...


Amazing poem. Great work. I am really happy that I got to read it. Thanks for sharing. Keep writing. Best wishes, *RainbowR*
