So this is the place where I can try
to get a critique on my poem
Well, I'll give you one of mine soon
after I've done my work at home

I'm just trying to write in English
for my native language is Dutch
So you all please will be gentle
and don't critique me too much

I enjoy reading your answers
to the poems submitted here
And I fear a bit for mine now
must try hard, oh dear, oh dear

So look out within a fourthnight
have to think of a subject still
thus it might be a bit longer
but I'll sure write you one, I will



A rose is a rose is a rose...I guess...

Are you kidding? This is already better than a lot of what native speakers write. I wonder, at times, if the very fact that you have to concentrate more on the words, it doesn't give you a slight advantage in writing more interesting poetry.

On the next one, though, don't forget the concrete image.

Thank you Joricho for reading, you'll have to just wait and see.

Brad, thanks for your kind words, but what exactly do you mean by 'don't forget the concrete image'? Well, maybe I will find out in time.
