Author's Note

I am open for any suggestions.... I have only wrote these poems over the last year or so since my mom's death... I know my words are "elementary" so to speak...

Reviews

[~*a beautiful disaster*..]

whether elementary or not the talent is there and the "simplicity" of the words used just adds to the range of the work.

This was pleasing in its simplicity I enjoyed it. The only thing I had trouble imagining was a good cup of coffee. I'm a tea person! Nice work.

[Enigma]

Beautiful and colour ful writing. I kinda had difficulty in understanding it so I simply imagined all the stuff, and it was all so beautiful....
Well Done!!

I don't think the word "elementary" fits well with this piece, it suggests a sense of innocent ignorance that doesn't come from your writing. "Simplistic" seems to fit much better; the images are chrisp and to the point, meant to get the image into the head of the reader instead of painting it in.

As I read the piece, I began to think that the last words didn't quite fit. However, after reading it through a second time, they seem to fit remarkably well. By sucumbing to the transparity of imagry and the vagueness of connotation, each word fits well with the stanza accompanying it, almost as if that's the first word that entered your mind after you wrote the two lines before it.

Nicely done. There's not much else to say about this piece since it's so simple in design and execution, but the best things in life are usually the simpliest. I dig it.

a lot of what I have read of yours is understandably somber - but even though this piece is simply stated - I thoroughly enjoyed it. Sometimes the simplest verbiage is the best.

Elementary is good. It is preferred, in fact; at least by me. I might substitute Jelly Bellies for gum drops, but otherwise, your list of wonderful-ness is perfect. Each word solicits a bit of happiness. Thank you for sharing it. Sam
