Review: i enjoyed reading this and i like the series of events . It flowed smoothly but please try to not repeat a line /phrase because it sounds as if you are falling short of lines and yes a bit of work on punctuation.

What i liked the most was the blurb. Short but precise and hits directly to the heart if reader.

I like the way you have chosen your words, very wisely and accurately. Your writing style is very precise , you write short but to the point. Just work on punctuations and your rhythmic sense is amazing. It felt like flowing with the poem. Keep up the good work. You can write more in your blurb regarding the content inside your book which makes the reader hooked to your book.

Okay you must be seeing your scores are a bit low so let me explain the reason.
Firstly make an attractive cover for your poem book. Secondly you know a lot of things and have an amazing imagination but you need to arrange the things in a poetic fashion. Try to establish a rhythmic sequence of events. Use some poetic devices and work on punctuations. Don't repeat the first phrase everytime it just kills the interest of the reader. I hope you didn't mind me pointing out your mistakes. Rest you are a store house of imagination and great ideas . Use it to your best.

Review: You have a great imagination and master at using imagery and metaphor .
You have aptly used the poetic devices and the way you presented your poem was amazing as it doesn't bore the audience.
You used simple words effectively. One thing i would like to say is you need to keep your achievements after your blurb (poem description ) beacuse it should be your words and ability which shall speak about your talent and not the achievements. And yes lastly the title matches with the poem very well but the cover goes a bit off track. Get a cover portraying emotions .

5. Rhythm of the Soul by WhisperingFlames

Total 78/90

So i liked the way of your writing very much . You maintained the flow of the poem very well and you have a good sense of poetic devices and an amazing vocabulary . Things you need to work upon is the blurb can be better and your cover has a tagline "Poetry is but ...." it seemed to me a bit incomplete that's the reason i deducted marks on cover otherwise you are good going . Keep it up!

So firstly make an attractive cover because it does form an impression. Then try to give a more appealing title to your poem . Then coming to blurb part, write what your poems are about in that section. Then you have a great imagination I must say and can write on versatile topics but try to maintain the flow of the poem and give it a rhythmic sense. Work on punctuations too. And try to use some smile or metaphor or imagery. Then coming to the last point , express your emotions in such a way that the reader should be hooked to your poem. All the best and keep writing.

Review - Sorry if this is too short, but here's some things I like & compliment, along with some areas that I feel could be further polished. First of all, I would like to commend you for the topics on which you discuss/touch upon in your poems. In addition, I especially liked three of the eleven poems which were published at the time of reading: Queen, Bad Day, and Life. Furthermore, I liked your inclusion of poetic &/or literary devices such as similes, occasional anaphoras, and metaphors, but I felt as if more could be added. However, that does not take away or minimize the purpose of the poems. It's just a interesting concept of adding things like oxymorons, paradoxes, symbolism, allusion, chiasmus, & more. Finally, I know there have been several words that potentially or deliberately used in a manner that poses a grammatical conflict. Although they don't per say, ruin the sections in which they were incorrectly or not ideally used, it does slightly detract from the stanzas in which they are found. However, I would like to iterate that I enjoyed reading most of your poems, and I would definitely hold your work in a positive light. There are just some things that could be improved I am a bit picky about, but the appeal of their alternatives are subjective. So without a doubt, each of these 11 poems are either satisfactory or definitively enjoyable. Best of luck to you!

Review - To start off with, I would like to congratulate you on your 8 excellently written poems, of which, Stars, Racism, & Invisible are my favorites. In addition, there are multiple instances where literary devices are effectively used. However, I believed that more poetic devices should've been used in several of the poems where they aren't as common. Nevertheless, some people just like to write things down into words, plainly. What is much more noticeable than a lack of good poetic devices, is the way in which you format ideas & phrases. An extension of this, I particularly enjoyed the unique narrative journey which occurs in "Stars". Overall, I would say this is a solid work, & definitely has strong points, with occasional weaknesses. Alas, I wish to be of further help, but there isn't much I could personally aid with other than advice, of which, just keep writing more poems is one of the most ideal. Good luck with whatever the future brings!

Review - Let's just say that I wasn't expecting that your poems would be presented as they were, and I'm saying this in a positive light by the way. Overall, I liked each of your poems, but for me, there were no standout poems which were significantly better than their peers. That doesn't mean there weren't excellent poems, just that a great (quality) difference between my opinions of a poem & following ones was not present. In addition, I do like the seemingly unique narrative style that enables readers to be whisked away into the story unfolding in the respective poem. However, I must say I would certainly like it more if more diversity of techniques/styles were introduced, but that's only a minor detail. Shades of Love is certainly a noteworthy and enjoyable collection of poems. Good luck with its future!

Review - First of all, I would like to say that the way you format your poems, in short sections of couplets, tercets, & quatrains are certainly unique. Most other poems don't have such a distinctive flow, or use italicized words while doing so. In addition, literary & poetic devices were present, though there could be more, but I digress. In addition, the imagery that is often present is excellently used & can evoke vivid pictures. With that out of the way, there are several minor adjustments, but those are just picky details which I believe will naturally fix themselves. However, I won't comment on recommendations & further critiques as only 5 poems are currently published, and I'm not sure if those 5 would cover your writing style well. Often, it is easier to give critique once there is more to be drawn from. Flukes & repeat patterns are easier to tell then. So, I would highly recommend for you to write down more poems, as you will probably see a few very minor errors when you write & write more. Good luck with your future & it was great reading your poems.

Review - Not going to lie, I was actually fairly skeptical of your 2 meager poems when I first entered the work that is THE BROWN PLANET. Even after reading several lines from the first poem, The Green Election, I was still doubtful of the poem's quality & effectiveness. However, the unique narrative style which you used, coupled with the topic on which you breached, along with literary/poetic devices present would make it evident that this was a solid piece of literature. Through the use of the lengths of the lines, and the purposeful punctuation, plot progression, capitalization, & speech, I was able to understand the intricacy of the 2 poems which were not as clear as when I first previewed them. In addition, the 2nd poem suited the 1st one well, as I would agree that it improved the quality of the work greatly, by providing a backstory & further room to showcase your capabilities. However, like how I would write to another, though both poems are certainly long, they are still just two poems. They are a sample of your writing abilities, & do contain several minor details that could be fixed. Yet, I won't be diving into them as I simply don't know if they are a fluke, or if they are a consistent pattern repeating themselves. That is a weakness of having less poems/chapters. Still, I believe you tackled a grave issue facing our world today, in an effective manner by utilizing the gift of storytelling, and drawing readers in. Best regards.

Review - The clear use of repetition/anaphora is both effective at garnering one's attention, & at drawing emphasis to the topic at hand. However, there are a few instances where words are misapplied or when grammar & flow could be improved upon. These are just very minor errors and would likely be quickly fixed if you went through an editing & revisions stage. In addition, this is more of preference, the continuous use of anaphora through multiple consecutive poems dilutes the device's impact for me. It can become tiring & feel bogged down in some instances. However, take that with a lot of salt, as that is just my personal preference and I am aware that some others may differ. Nevertheless, I believe this is a notable work with many strengths at its side. Good luck, and I hope you will continue to write great pieces of poetry & otherwise.
