a compliment for you, and you, and you!



Has anyone told you today that you're wonderful? You are!

Hi! As the thread title implies, this thread is for requesting a poetry comment! My Review thread is currently on pause, but I would love to leave a little word of encouragement on your poetry!

One of my very favorite parts of National Poetry Month is the Garden Challenge where you make 30 nice little comments on people's writing style and individual poems (in fact this year I went ahead and just wrote 60 for fun) I find it very enjoyable to read a poem and find a few things to say about just what in particular makes it special!

There are times in the writing process where you need a review because you want to critique and revise your work, then there are times in the writing process when you just need a friendly word of encouragement or would maybe appreciate a little extra thought on your work, and for those moments I'VE GOT YOU!

Rest assured these will not be made-up compliments about your poetry, I won't just make up things that I don't see present in the work, but I will find something that is uniquely special and wonderful about your poem and tell you about it! :)

Rules:
* only leave links for poetry, not prose please.
* I'd prefer to not read things that are graphic 18+ for mature content, though language is fine.
* Please leave one request at a time, but feel free to come back as often as you'd like!

Post those poetry links below!
you should know i am a time traveler &
there is no season as achingly temporary as now
but i have promised to return

Hey alliyah! I guess I’ll be the first to request something! So, if you have the time, could you look at “The Hood and the Hero” and “We All Perish”. I wrote them during NaPo, so they are both in this work: A Collection Of My NaPo 2020 Poems. Thanks in advance!

Edit: I believe you already said something “We All Perish” in my NaPo thread, so feel free to just do “The Hood and the Hero”!

Firstly, this is a pretty cool thread.
It would be really nice if you could leave a compliment on my friend's poem Dawn of Light. He has often encouraged me to write. Even though he isn't very active now, when he next opens his account it would be nice to start with a positive message.
Thank you.
Let's just die young or live forever.

Hey alliyah! I was hoping if you could comment on this poem Rise of the Planet of the Chicks
Well I know it's already received many good reviews, but I was just hoping if you could give some of your thoughts about it. :P
I only put my signature on big cheques.

@Hkumar do you prefer a poetry compliment/comment or poetry review for that one? I just opened up my review thread again, but if you're looking for just a comment I can do that too. ~ just let me know!
