Hello Damommy,
This is a cute free verse poem. I like the title, "All that Glitters." The photo of happy gold fish fits your poem story. What a lovely poem about your fish to relax by in your small world? I have a beta fish called, Pepco that's in the aquarian by him/herself. Watching fish is really calming for me also. I enjoyed reading this poem with your descriptive words of color and the way you shared your piece. Your poem was nicely written with feeling and kept my interest to the end. No revisions I could see. Good job, Damommy. Thanks.
Keep writing:-)

A fine free verse here with wonderful warm soothing sentiments, watching fish enjoying life in there own habitat, even if it is in a fish tank, they are a joy to watch and your poem brought the scene to me here, love Dolly x

I have a pond that is very peaceful. It has goldfish, koi, and turtles. Thanks for reviewing.
Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
Your free verse is in great style, Yvonne. I love your picture choice. Your words flow down the page just like little fish swimming in your pond. I read great use of s, b, & s alliteration, so some great details of the pond, and the great comparison of the little fish to gold bullions. I like the way you ended with the reflection of the birds overhead. That is a great way to cap this scene to recall it in its entirety. Thanks for sharing. Respectfully, Jan

Hello Yvonne. Luster is a word I seldom hear these days. It evidently been relegated to more serene days when language wasn't so hard and words weren't so men.

It is a forgotten word, isn't it? Thanks for reviewing. How's Ralphie taking his social distancing?

Loved it, Yvonne. And that first word, "pondering" got me right in the mood for the glittering "pond." Your world is rich with the gold of the jeweled fish and the silver of the water which is a "glassy collage" covered with the lace of tree shadows! Just beautiful!

And Yvonne, I wished I had a six left in my arsenal. I'm so sorry but I don't. It's a lovely poem, which is very well written and which gave me great pleasure to read. Stay safe. Ulla:)))

This is exceptional! I like your perfect use of descriptive wordings; coupled with the grand cover image, which gives a great synopsis of what is later on to come - this wonderful piece! Great job!
