Thank you for the comprehensive review, Kavita!
Yes, this one will be complex for new poetry enthusiasts. To begin poems, I suggest Hold Your Breath. Easy language, sentences, you'll easily comprehend and also get the emotions and insight. If it comes your way, don't miss it. It's about Pandemic, like a short poem diary.

Hi Balckstenius, Thank you for reading and the nice comment.!Blackstenius wrote: ↑04 Jun 2023, 07:40 The idea of two souls meeting after death seems intriguing, and some of the poems you've described sound interesting. However, too much talk of corpses and ghosts don't seem like something I would much enjoy, so I think I'll skip this one. This was an enjoyable review nevertheless.
Yes, that meeting was a really beautiful moment. I guess corpses are scary. I have seen many horror movies and think of corpses that come alive as green Zombies. And as they're lifeless, they won't eat you. That makes them cartoonish and not scary.
Good luck for your next review!

Hello Kigen. I commend your high level concentration.Kigen Valarie wrote: ↑04 Jun 2023, 10:50 Just read this book and I think I enjoyed it so much. The thrill is that I had to employ a high level of concentration to understand them. This is why I love poetry. I enjoyed your review too. In contrast to hard-to-understand poems, I like reading simple reviews that don't include complex grammar.
I'm heading over to your review.

Hello Omneya and Thank you for reading! It was a new experience as I've read easy poems previously and this one was like a whole new world of poems. This experience encourages me to read more and gain more comprehension ability of complex poems. Have a good day!Omneya Shakeep wrote: ↑04 Jun 2023, 19:18 I'm not a fan of poems, as I usually struggle with the meanings and metaphors used in them. But I enjoyed reading your review very much, Kavita. I'm glad you enjoyed some of the poems in the book. Thanks for this excellent review!

Thank you for reading and commenting Fawmi Jumana! I hope you enjoy it, but it might be a bit difficult to understand the other poems except the ones near the end. They were simpler and easier.Fawmi Jumana wrote: ↑05 Jun 2023, 21:36 I'm not a huge fan of poetry. But Jane Eyre was one of my favourite novels in my childhood. So I might give this a go and see if I'd be able to enjoy this. I'm glad you enjoyed the book to an extent.

I'm still not that avid poetry reader, but yes, that speaks volumes when one doesn't understand the poems. Thank you for sharing your thoughts Amy!
