Alana Roach's critique of Meghan Harris's poem

This is a rhythmic poem about friendship that has gone through growing together and then apart, but remaining close in spite of the distance.

I really like he gratitude, and love expressed in this poem through rhyme in the end, "Gratitude and thanks would never be enough, but thanks for being there for me whenever life gets tough."
It really speaks from the heart.

I like the third stanza because I could really empathize with her pain, and then having someone there to be her "Guiding Light" through the pain.

This poem is a like looking through a keyhole into Meghan's life. It's an expression of her love and fears.

Perhaps there could have been more descriptive scenery, and details about the specific events of her life. I would have liked to seen her go even deeper.
