 This is a "Game of Thrones"  review!Hello, lighthouses.37!  Overall Impression:This is a gentle nod to those old flames that never quite go out, even when they've shifted from fiery red to a warm glow in the back of our minds, even when they're strictly platonic. It’s simple yet deep, pulling us back to those days of youthful awe and tender feelings. Form, Rhythm, Cadence, and Style:This poem uses free verse instead of strict rhythm or rhyme for a more straightforward, conversational style. This choice feels right because it lets the emotions come through in a genuine, unforced way. The lines flow like a casual chat about old times, with the rhythm capturing the natural ups and downs of recalling cherished memories. Content:This was like opening an old diary and feeling those first fluttery feelings all over again. The poem captures the innocence and intensity of a first crush, showing how those early feelings can stick with us even as we get older. It’s all about the bittersweet mix of holding on to those sweet memories while recognizing that life has moved on. The journey from nervous encounters to quiet reflections as an adult is something many of us can relate to. Grammar and Mechanics:Everything here is neat—no spelling mishaps or grammar mistakes that I could find. The use of punctuation is spot on, guiding us through the poem and letting the emotions land just right. Each pause and break feels like a moment to sigh and smile over the past. Final Thoughts:This poem is a cozy blanket of nostalgia, perfect for those moments when we’re safe in our thoughts, reminiscing. It is simple yet deep, pulling us back to those days of youthful awe and tender feelings, which I'm sure will resonate with many readers. Thank you for sharing your work with us!
