COVER: 8/10
The cover is pretty. The fonts used are quite prominent and attractive and so is the picture used. Since this is a poetry book, something more sober and thoughtful could’ve been used as a picture, but the current one is good enough.

TITLE: 2/5
The title isn’t a very commonly used phrase and is pretty attractive. However, it sounds more like a title for a story and not a poetry book. Maybe, try searching on the internet for some of those fancy aesthetic words that suit the vibe and it will sound great.

BLURB: 7/10
The blurb is pretty esoteric and I love the sentence structures. However, I noticed that you have used the same thing over and over, but rephrased them variously.
In a blurb, you need not say the same thing again and again. Using just one of the sentences would be more than enough for your book’s blurb and to attract readers.

STRUCTURE AND COHERENCE: 13/20
It's not always necessary for your poems to rhyme, but at the same time they should have a rhythm so a reader can sing it as a song. Poems are basically songs, hence, a rhythm is important.
Your poems don’t rhyme much, but they don’t have a rhythm either. You can write your poems in various rhyming styles. For instance, you can rhyme the first sentence of your poem with the third one and so on. or, you can also use the rhyming structure where the first sentence rhymes with the last sentence, while the rest don’t.
Either way, your poems lack rhythm and I would suggest improving on that.
About coherence, I like how they touch on some important topics like loneliness, pollution, etc. Your poems are well-worded and portrayed, which is often a very difficult task for writers.

DRAMATIC APPROPRIATENESS AND ARTICULATION: 19/20
While reading your poems, my first words of expression were, “damn, they’re good!” because honestly, the words and similes and metaphors used are really great.
Also, the expression of your feelings through words is well portrayed. Poems are all about expressions and you have done a good job to portray them.

ACCURACY: 14/15
Your knowledge in words and their expressions are impressive. You have used correct metaphors and similes for the right place and mostly, writers can’t do that. At the same time, your language is quite simple and easy to interpret for readers, which is yet another important aspect.

GRAMMAR AND VOCABULARY: 9/15
Your grammar is pretty good, except that I've noticed a few punctuational errors here and there. Even in poems, punctuations matter, especially commas and semicolons. Semicolons make your poems more convenient to read. It’s usually placed at positions where you don’t wanna end the sentence completely but at the same time, a simple pause won’t do.
I hope you use punctuation wisely in your future works.
Your vocabulary is decent. There aren’t many fancy words but those that are present have been used correctly and justified with their usage.

REVIEWER’S THOUGHTS: 4/5
You have a beautiful mind work and imagination and your way of expressing them is also great. I saw the potential in you but it needs some polishing. A little bit of practice and improvement would do the work.

TOTAL: 76/100

STRENGTH AND WEAKNESS:
In my opinion, your biggest strength is your imagination and way of expressing your thoughts. For a writer, the biggest challenge is to be able to portray your imagination to the audience in the correct way. But you have done a great job, as I could very vividly go through your thought process. Your sentence structures and vocabulary should also be considered a plus point.
What your weakness was, the rhyming structure. I understand that you are a novice in the field of poetry (but you do quite a good job despite that) and bringing a constant rhyming structure is tough. I would recommend reading poetries and trying to analyse them at the same time to get a clear view, and practice on your own as well. You can get someone who knows well about poetry to proof-read your works and help you out in this.
