I liked your poems full of comedy. In some poems I thought the rhythm faltered a bit and the rhyme seemed to be forced. Just a suggestion.

I liked your approach of everyday life and events in a poetically funny way.

Interesting perspectives, tempo and flow, an enjoyable edition altogether. Especially enjoyed reflections on relationships and the winter poem at end! 'Firelight' would love to enjoy your company, too, if you'd stop by. And, oh, yes, thank you for interjecting humor, too...from a writer who shares some similar ideas, both fanciful and harshly real. Warmest wishes for the book and new year.

Being lyrical about simple every day events appeals to me! I enjoyed reading this delightful anthology.
Thankyou!

I liked some of the poems very much indeed, and in some of them the rhymes were quite subtle. However, there were times when I felt that the rhymes were hampering your expression a bit and wondered if you do write poems without rhyme at all? But I enjoyed the book as a whole as you convey the realities of your life very well.

Clearly a great deal of work has gone into this book. Best of luck with it.

I liked the tempo of your writing, in most places. Style changes from line to line, I thought your intentional doing, worked for me. It is fun to read through those changes but all from your POV and to the same end. Some, just a few, places this change in style from a line to a line was off-putting for me, wasn't working for me. Choice of words are better because of changes in how we live, with all those camera cell phones we can send what we see to others, some instances in HD! No elite poets using their twisted expressions needed any more. I would rather see my friends send me pictures instead, anywhere in the world. No exotic locals needing a poet describing lavish, exaggerated experience.
