REVIEWS:

MY LATEST POETRY REVIEW BY A WELL-KNOWN POETRY CRITIQUE IS IN! HERE'S WHAT THE CRITIC SAID:

"First of all, you have a nice, descriptive style that is lacking in many poets these days.  You take the time to succinctly describe the setting and give the poem a strong voice.  This poem especially wanders around the farm as a child would-looking at everything, noticing everything.  I think that speaks volumes to the time and the care that you take with your poetry.  Your poems are quite intriguing as a whole and they leave me with a desire to read even more. Your mechanics are excellent. I think that the stanzas that you have created work well to break up ideas and your line breaks guide a reader to strong images. I think that you are quite talented in writing poetry.  You have a strong grasp of what poetry should do and how to do it."
