Just a little suggestion for your poem. It is difficult to see and read. Could you possibly lighten up the print or use a different font? Let me know and I will give you a better rating. Looks much better. Thank you.

The image shows lightning strikes .... this reminds me of the tornado (permeating air) that hit Mississippi. How sad their hearts must be.

    I hope that's better for you. I tried to make the word bigger but it wouldn't go too much bigger so I went ahead and Change the style and bold it it hopefully that will be better thank you again. I hope you have a great day!

Beautifully sad. Poignant and to the point. I love the metaphor. The only thing that would have made me like it more is if you used different, more descriptive or meaningful words than "bleak" and "gray".

    I like the new words! It doesn't quite match the imagery anymore but I think it speaks louder and the picture can always be changed. Great Job!

You certainly met the criteria for writing a sad poem. Powerful illustration but I personally am unsure about the use of the term "molesting", somehow it does not seem to fit in this sense. Best of luck.

This is definitely very sad, I love the picture and font. I normally don't like short poems but I think you definitely made it work. But on that note, if I had one complaint I wish this poem was longer. Other then that great poem and great work! If this is actually how you live, I wish you healing and love. Remember, no matter what it seems like, wounds always heal.

    Thank you very much for your time and for your kind comments. I very much appreciate it before your review and I'm going through my work. I am blessed too thank you very much! I intended to make the poem longer but then I wrote that line that said my heartless there. And I thought what more is there to say?
