Yes, the new year is finally here, and will we make it better by changing our ways, or will things stay the same and continue to decline?

Hi Diane.
You have captured that 'New Year' feeling perfectly, and I think there will be so many people who will be able to identify with this. I know I do.

this is an excellent poem for us to take to heart for the New Year. It is good to remember the heartbreaks and sorrows of the past, but, that is truly where they should reside - In memories. Your poem offers hope and remembrance at the same time. 2Flower.

Diane,
I mailed out a query to an agent yesterday and I have my fingers crossed. I am hoping for some good news for a change. I have had too many turn down letters.
The theme was chosen well. The flow was nice. The arrangement was done well.
There was no SPAG. No room for improvement.
I look forward to seeing you again.
Love you,
Oatmeal

'Renewal' is an exceptionally well-written and soul-liberating piece of poetry. Mrs KT has skillfully shown that learning from our past mistakes ensures us of a better and brighter future. It was a pleasure to read and review a work of this caliber.

Hello duchess! My goodness! Please elucidate!!!! You have rated my offering as "poor" - one star - and yet, you state that it is "exceptionally well-written." Thank you...diane
Mrs KT, I can't imagine what happened other than I had a great
deal of trouble with Fanstory last night. I gave your work a five
star rating.
My apologies. I've never had to upgrade a rating before. Would
you please be so kind as to send me a PM and tell me how to
go about it?
Kind regards,
the Duchess

This is a lovely poem. I am just learning about poetry and I think free verse is the hardest one so far. I never even liked poetry until I got on this site. It is poems like this that keep me interested. I will save this and read it over and over. Good writing. Lani2
