For me...being a Poet, it's good to be

Hello I'm here to review your poem a bit.
okay so just going right into it.
there are a few flow problems and spelling errors.
I don't know if you used repetition on purpose or not but to me (please don't hate me when I say this) it seems kind of childish. I reminds me of one of the poems i would have read in around 5-6th grade as a demonstration on how to write poetry. I'm sorry if that seems rude.
then there are a few lines I feel don't really go (here comes some of the spelling mistakes too)

"Being a Poet is hard work and leanr to feel"
with the first two lines and then the following lines I personally do not think that this fits at all. then "leanr" did you me learn?

"Being a Poet means thinking about"
thinking about.
thinking about what?
you didn't finish your sentence. I would absolutely love if you invited the rest of your sentence to the party I'm sure it feels left out.

"Being a Poet, is sharing and caring

About what's Life, let us hold"
now the first line of this one is good but the second line is what got to me.
let us hold what? all these sentences want to come to the party and you're leaving them home. please bring them along I bet they're good pals.

now that I'm done being a Negative Nancy, I will tell you the things that I like about it.
I really like the general idea of this poem. its very nice actually. so


"What's inside your heart, only that's real"
this line I really like, because it's true.
sometimes our head doesn't know and that's okay.


"It makes our scars that we have, whole"
Again same concept. I like this line because it's true.
writing is one of my only creative outlets besides the music I create.
It's really a beautiful and underrated thing that not everyone understands.
but I'm glad you do enough to create such a good poem.
all it needs is a little editing and it'll all be honky dory.
keep up the good work my fren.
I look forward to see more from you
have a lovely day

Hi there popsicles! As I said already, welcome to the YWS!!!

I'm whatchamacallit - or, as most people know me, whatcha - and I tend to stick to reviewing poetry.

With introductions aside, onto the review!

First of all, a general rule of poetry - too much repetition tends to make words lose their meaning, so to speak. Have you ever tried saying a word over and over? If you do, you might notice it starts to sound like nonsense and lose its meaning. The same (to some extent) goes for poetry.

So you'll notice you repeat 'being a poet' is repeated quite a bit. You could change it around, like,

''being a poet is so awesome and cool,
writing the script is learned in school, ''
etc.

I understand that English isn't your first language, so here's a tip about poetry.
There are 'strong' words and 'weak' words. Think of, words that adults use (strong) and words that kids use (weak), or something like that.

'Awesome', 'cool', and other words like that are sometimes thought of as weak.
Other words, like 'magnificent' or 'fierce' are more strong. However, English not being your mother tongue, it will probably be hard to tell those apart at first. I would definitely find that hard in a language, like, say, French.

So anyway. Onto punctuation.

I've put it in a spoiler (the whole poem, that is) with my suggestions for grammar/punctuation.

Spoiler! :

Being a Poet is so awesome and coolcomma
Being a Poet is learning how to be in schoolperiod <- I think you mean 'how to be a poet is learned in school, however not quite sure
Being a Poet is hard work and leanr comma <- change to learning to feel
What's inside your heart, only that's real <- again, I think you mean 'the stuff that's real'
Being a Poet means thinking about <- in English this is an incomplete sentence. Thinking about ... what?
Being a Poet, is sharing and caringcomma
About what's Life, let us hold period <- I think you mean as the English say, 'what life has in store for us' - basically what's going to happen.
Being a Poet is listening to our Soulcomma
Somewhere deep between head and Heart
It makes our scars that we have, wholedash
And the dreams that we have, will startperiod
Being a Poet let us only see <- Not sure exactly what this is supposed to mean. However, correct grammar would be 'being a poet lets us see'.
For me...being a Poet, it's good to be <- 'it's a good thing to be

Hello popsicles! Welcome to YWS! Kara here for a (hopefully) quick review!

Give me your soul.

With that aside, I'm not the best at poetry but here we go!

Bold = grammar and flow issues.
Italics = suggestions and overall
Strikethrough = remove
Underline = krazy Kara komments.

1. Never capitalize any nouns unless they are proper - like names - or at the beginning of a sentence.
2. Read your poem out loud (this is more of a tip, but whatever). Does it flow well? Does it work?
3. Separate your stanzas so it'll be easier to read. I couldn't figure out where to separate, but you can do that on your own.

Hello, E.E here for a possibly quick review and maybe some utter nonsense! So, lets get started!
First thing I notice is that the flow is not the best. Yes, I like the poem but it could of been worded better. For instance, "Love to be" could instead be "I would love to be" and to follow that, "a poet can't you see?" Those would make the whole thing flow better. "Do I leave behind" that line is rather confusing me, once again because of the wording. When you go back to fix the poem and when you write other things, make sure you read them out out loud to your self. It really helps! Otherwise, I noticed no other grammar mistakes or spelling ones so that is good.
Now is when I dissect you poem and see if I can't get its meaning right! So, in your poem you are talking about the fact how you would just love to write poems for a living, like Edgar Allen Poe (although his were not very popular with American's, the french LOVED him. Seriously, some had a slight problem), and want to people to know that this is how you express yourself to the world. This, writing, is how you cope and how you can just be yourself! You do not want to leave this part of you behind in the dust, to lose the part that you love. What you want to write you just store for later in your brain, like a photographic memory and the more you do this the more ideas that come and the more you know that no will ever take this part away from you.
Otherwise, I have nothing else to say but I really like the poem, keep up the good world and Happy Halloween!
Also, why not say hi to my lovely friend the Grim Reaper? Heres a tip, he likes hot cocoa!
