Comments received on poems by Aislinn Wilson
God, Our Mother
queer-with-a-pen said:
I am a very big fan of writing/seeing god as a woman. And the image of god as a mother, especially ones own, is a powerful and beautiful one indeed. The shortness of the poem lends to the rhythm that it flows with, and part of me was sad when it ended. (This poem would also be fantastic to illustrate).

Well, I doubt we shall be as harsh as someone I knew on a site - a troll though. He would slag off people with \'This is garbage\' or \' I don\'t care much for this\'.
We might look at the content of poems, more than the form. I do anyway, as I\'m no \'professional poet\'.
It is so in life, I think. Things go round in circles, maybe large ones sometimes. Yet we try new things, different things, etc.

A fine write Aislinn. I\'m willing to accept God as \'She\' as well as \'He\'. I mostly use \'He\' in my poems. God has masculine and feminine attributes I believe.

A Lamentation

Although not a Christian I still fully appreciate the trauma and sincerity of this work. I can\'t offer criticism as it already shows such great use of the language and natural ability towards construction. In fact I am quite jealous of your ability at such an early stage of your writing.
As for the future do keep that pen busy but try to chose subjects that extend your writings. In other words chose subjects from imagination rather than from personal experience .
A good poet writes from personal experience, a great poet writes from personal experience AND from imagination.

You must not be mad at God. I believe it is those who go through the most trials in the beginning are the ones that God really uses. Have patience. I know it sounds cliche, but God does have a plan for you.
As for your poem, It is very good, and very sincere. Just keep growing as a poet, and as a person. Keep writing.
