Excellent poem!! I loved it!! SWEET

I enjoyed the poem, but for some reason the phrase "sister of soul" seemed the bulkiest part of the poem (which is ironic since it is not only the title of the poem but the thread from which the other ideas within the poem arise). I kept on trying to understand what a sister of soul would mean. I kept on feeling like it should be like a "sister-soul" or something like that. I suppose my difficulty is understanding precisely what you mean by the phrase, or what object you had in mind in creating that phrase. I did enjoy the poem though, it was eloquent and short, while still being thought-provoking.

Sean, I do believe Sister of Soul is a better phrase of Soul sister, connection of 2 souls through love and friendship. However, Fts, I believe this is a beautiful poem, well written. -5

Love Heather.

I liked it... though the last line "for she’s my sister of soul." seemed a little awkward and forced (as a line). I think the poem will be as effective without it. Still a very nice read. Loved the 2nd stanza especially :-)

Nicely written:) I loved it. Keep it up.

Beautifully written. I loved it. I can't wait to read more of your work.
Take care and God bless.

What a wonderful tribute to your "sister of soul". It truly made me smile to read your feelings about your wife (I am assuming). It's nice to know that there are loyal men out there who still cherish their loves. Fantastic poem:)

I have someone that I feel is my "sister in soul", but I do not think we will ever be married. We are best friends, but we have our differant motives and life goals. Well, the point is, I'm glad you have found someone. Take care... P.S. Excellent poem.

Such a well written, deep and sincere poem. I loved the overall message of the poem, simply saying she is you "sister of soul." Very well done, keep it up!

Hey Bro, nice work as usual. Here's my advice mr man.

I think the flow is the only thing that could potentially be improved in this piece.

For example, the last line of the first stanze would flow much better in terms of syllables if it read just

"Of life"

and then "troubles" instead of "tribulations" just to cut on syllable, plus i'd add another word on the 3rd line of the second stanza...somethin like "pain".

In the 3rd stanze, i'd cut out the "now" from the 6th line and put it at the start of the 7th.

Aside from that, bold effort..and all the best with you and your soul sister....go sister.....soul sister...go sister....

: )

Kevin... you always manage to wrangle excellent advice and critique with humour... gotta love ya man.

Very nice!!!

Wonderful tribute!!!

.....deep karma....

Very sweet...5/5
