I don't know how many times I've read online, in forums, poems that have such atrocious spelling mistakes that it's hard to get past the first few lines. I'm not talking about simple mistakes like i before e, except after c, I'm talking about simple words that are mis-spelled. I know we all make mistakes and they can get past us when we're working on something we're writing, but sometimes the English grammar is so bad and the spelling on top of that can be even worse that it's painful to read those poems. I'd suggest that you work on a Word Document program where it has a spell check or give the poem to someone who has taken an English class for a few years. It can only help. Diane
