The presentation is a great and your notes on the subject even more true than people care to admit. They are mostly poets who want to grab the glory for themselves. I have to rely on reviews because I have no money

Comment from Teri7
This is a very good 5-7-5 poem you have penned for the contest. I think you did a great job with the wording and the imagery. I try to be honest with the reviews I give. I do try to be nice about it. No sense being rude and mean to others. Best wishes in the contest. Teri

Comment from LaRosa
Your truthful request is well versed; and this is from one who can't do half so well. I like it. It's an interesting twist of idea: tell me my TRUE worth.
The picture of stars is so appropriate and they're beautiful.
I wish that 'true' reviews could always be appreciated, even a little bit. Sometimes it scares you to give them...
You are honest. I like that.

Well, I can't fault this poem, it says all you want to say

Comment from F. Wehr3
Well, I guess the onus is on me, lol. This is an interesting topic, and I can see you have met the syllable count just fine. Now, comes the hard part. Should tell you tales of how lame some reviewers are on the site, not knowing who you are, or even if you're a good reviewer. This is my quandary. All I can do is give my best to each person I review, not overstepping my bounds or knowledge, and hopefully, karma will reward me with good reviews.
I enjoyed your poem and wish you luck in the contest.
Take care,
Russell

Thank you for your honest and thoughtful review
Comment from Janet Foor
I don't write Senryu or haiku so I'm not a good reviewer for this poem. However, I can review your message and agree - I want to know if my rhyme and meter are correct and am always pleased when someone makes a suggestions that makes it better.
Having said that, your senyu is lovely. :))))
Blessings

Comment from RodG
I like this senyru because it is not a scathing attack, but a sincere request for honesty when reviewing. Good closer because it not only refers to the writer, but also alludes to the reviewer's motives.

Hello my friend, I really enjoyed reading this well crafted poem that you have shared with us. I agree with you too some extent of what you mean. I think some readers just stick to the basic reviewing guidelines, but then again I think that some readers you know offer outstanding advice and Corrections and motivation. God bless you. With love, Lala

I don't think all of us are as willing as we'd like to be. There are few college literature professors among us, but some are willing with limitations, nothing's really changed with the site since I've been here, one simply has to take the good with the bad, there are some great reviewers, I simply do my best! Well dine, blessings, Roy
