BFG

I love the last stanza--it's practically begging to be quoted. I like the poem as a whole, though I didn't the first time I read it. The title is apt ...

Hi Destiny! I'm the BFG. I see you're new to YWS--welcome! Before I get around to reviewing your poem, you should know that YWS tries to keep a 2:1 ratio ...

I like this a lot. The first stanza is GORGEOUS, definitely my favorite. It has a swing to it, an escalation, like a cat leaping. I think, though, that I ...

I liked this a lot, and my appreciation of it oddly enough has nothing to do with Twilight or people who read Twilight. I found it very poetic, in a ...

I love the tone of this piece, as gentle and patient as the child I read into it. I thought it was a mother's perspective, but I wasn't sure. Not ...
