Hi LostGhost: Seeking & Learning Author IconMail Icon

I'm glad I read this work of yours. It is my pleasure to both read and comment on your work "Graveyard of TimeOpen in new Window. on behalf of "SIMPLY POSITIVE GROUPOpen in new Window..

*StarB* First Impression/Thoughts:
It took me all the way to the end before I finally figured out what the poem was about, but when I did I thought it was great. I just worry that not all might figure it out.

*Star* Creativity/Impact:
The idea of the past as time that is dead and buried is an interesting metaphor. It can be developed further.

*StarG* Message/Theme:
Honestly I'm not sure what the message is. I get the idea of times passed and life spent being compared to a graveyard, but then so what? Personally I would like the message to be clearer, if I just didn't manage to get it.

*StarR* Technique/Technical Notes:
These are just my thoughts and observations. I may not have read the work the way you intended. Please decide for yourself if these comments are helpful to you; if not, feel free to disregard them.

*BulletB* Title - The title is the first thing that prospective readers will see. An excellent title, and certainly one that drew me in straight away.

*BulletG* Grammar/Wording - I noticed nothing that jarred or confounded the reading. This is always a sign of good writing.

*BulletR* Form/Flow - Some occasional rhymes, sometimes alternating, sometimes in couplets, but not regular.

*Bullet* Emotion/Imagery - Some vivid imagery conjured, such as the aged woman and the baby.

*StarBr* Overall Rating/Final Thoughts:
*Star**Star**Star**Star* It's a well-composed and lyrical poem with a central conceit that can make it great if further developed. Thank you for a wonderful read!


Keep writing! Wishing you all the best,

Azrael
