Name Criticism Please

"You will miss the best thing if you keep your eyes shut" TIME passes a pleasant soft waft, Seems to be slow but not, it fast as a mega aircraft. The GLOBE gyrates like a wheel, however it's not, Event and people within are metamorphosis. Some generations have come and gone, now ours, We are the new changing of clothes Time forever survives. Our journey here in life is for a while, in fact, You almost reach your end, just a wee minute. Yes, you have heard the fact. But note; have you ever count your years, how far have you grown? Perhaps You may forecast what times it remains For you and can you live long Till you double your present age? We all pray to live long, While SHE and TIME the enemy laid siege. Her love for you is lust, Just to wear as cloth, but something within you can never Die if you plan to use it wise. Have you ever Think or plan how to maintain And protect you name? Billions of men and women Have come and gone without heard of them. Have you ever anticipate how the Globe Will see you as an eye? There are a lot of great men and women in history which their names are ringing from then Till now like Maya Angelou, shel Sliversterin, Emily Dickinson, Waft Whitman, Williem Shakespere, Ben Jonson, Robert Frost, etc. Name is a sky that is without an End if it's being used perfect If not, it's like a fire ablaze and then retreat The sun that glows symbolized your present Reflect to the moon that shines at night Symbolized when you are defunct If you use your name wise and perfect. Please feel free to criticize to this, I need a flak critique. Thanks

This has SO MUCH possibility! The only thing holding it back? Try and find someone superbly fluent in ENGLISH to correct the grammar. There are numerous misspelled words and wrong tenses that detract from the great beauty here! Get someone to sit down and go through the misspelled words and incorrect tenses:(e.g. Line 2 "... It fast meta air crafts") Meaning Unclear! (e.g. Line 4 ...generation have came) Change to "come." Love the analogy of the Clothes. Favorite line: Her love for you is lust, just to wear as cloth". I'm so amazed that you try to write in another language! You are brave!

I see some grammar,etc. problems that are probably due to you speaking another language besides English..I am not sure that you are from another country though??..Also, you have it listed as rhyme and it doesn't rhyme..It could be called Free Verse..I think it does expand on the quote that you used..Thanks for the visit to my page..Sara
