"SIMPLY POSITIVE GROUPOpen in new Window.

Hello there, Harry
This is a Simply Positive Review! *StarfishV*


*UmbrellaGr* I am also reviewing your item because it popped-up on the Random Review generator. I am so happy this one was on the click, because, I have reviewed so many of your storoems, but this one escaped by attention.


*DropB* My heart felt the heaviness of the mothers who have had to bury their children, due to the diseases that are handily conquered with modern day antibiotics.

*Peacock* The poem did what the descriptive word describes, it is both poetry, smoothly flowing forth for the reader to be richly enveloped in. Plus, it told a huge story -- one where the images easily floods a reader's mind's eye. I know I felt the pain of another mother's loss of her babies.


*Doctor* It's so true the words from the doctor -- that he will do what he can, makes the reader feel that although he is trying to pretend there is hope, he really believed it was a lost cause.


*Man* Through the eyes of the fathers, they desperately needed helping hands for the family farm. Yes, they mourned the loss of another child, and they feared the loss of food for the family without a working farm and product to sell.


*BabyGirl* The mothers' pain is the worst, for that child was carried inside her for 9 months. She had hopes and dreams of her child's success and long life in a time when sickness ran rampant. Having many children was all they could do, if possible, so at least some may survive to adulthood.


*Clock2* I remember my great aunt's story. She gave birth to eight children, and all of them predeceased her. It was tragic. She ended up a widow with no children until she passed away in her eighties.


*UmbrellaR* You always bring such insight and with ease, make the images of the story come alive for the reader.


*Glasses* I see no place that I could offer any suggestion, thus I am returning the auto-reward GPs.


Until next time--write on!

Regards,
WebWitch *Witch*
