Hello everyone,
my name is Lisa, I am from Austria and I love writing poetry. My mothertounge is German, but some of the poems I have written in or translated into English. I believe they have got something going for them (well, who doesn't think that to be case for their own words) but I am aware that I could do with some guidence, especially concerning grammar and tenses (the different past tenses are very hard for me to get right all the time).
I admit, the "3-critiques" rule is exceedingly hard for me to fulfill, as I do not see myself knowledgable enough for doing so. If anything in a poem should strike me as "odd", the chances are, this is down to me and not the author. But, I respect this "give-and-take" rule; I have been looking for a comunity critically looking at my poems, so I can gain from their experience and get better; and I guess I will have to do my best to give back what you ask for and find something still worth of writing, even if I lack any professionalism.
