Review #3: Reviewed by: Mikey Rating: Comments: This is another fine example of the depth of emotion that you so perfectly put into you witting it is awesome! For such a short piece to have so much to say I myself was filled with emotion, it was beautifully rendered and in so many ways reminds us of our own mortality and what legacy or souvenir we leave behind in the wake of our removal from this world. It was deep and well felt by myself and I truly think that this is one work that everyone should read I would rate this no less then a perfect 5 star

Review #2: Reviewed by: Dan M. Rating: Comments: Here's my opinion... I liked this one. The point that I got out of it was, if you have something to say, get it out while you can because life is so short, and death comes quick. Tommorow does'nt exist. All you have is all right here right now. A good "Carpe Diem" type piece, and then with maybe a twist of reincarnation at the end? Leaves you to wonder.....hee hee Well Done, Three and a half stars.

Review #1: Reviewed by: The Author Herself Rating: Comments: "Final Verses" is, of course, completely speculative. It's very formal and sounds more like poetry than a short story, really. But that is appropriate because it is partially about a poem. I think that it has an underlying message that wisdom cannot be faked and that one cannot write about an experience from the heart unless that heart has been through the experience. So, here I am writing about death without having experienced it. Waah. I think the idea of returning to the cosmos while experiencing a more "raw" happiness is an intriguing idea. It also makes me think about how important a "last message" could be...it might be your last chance to ever give anything to the world; there'd have to be life after death to get anything else across. This is a short piece and I think it's enjoyable, and I hope most people can grasp the meaning.
