Hi Russell, I really liked your poems. I happen to be a poet myself, just recently self-published and I have struggled to get anywhere with my collection until just very recently.

From reading "My Dream" I can see you're going through the same emotions I've felt. It really is a burning fire that keeps us going, striving to become better. I also noticed you added Welsh mythology to "The Wild Hunt", I'm from Wales and found this pleasently suprising (I put mythology in some of my poems too).
"I'm a fool for You" has a strong message, poeticly loving a person you haven't met. And as for the rest of the poems, I can't fault them and they all have interesting themes :)

Your poems have a sparse beauty like I imagine the Nevada deserts do. Please write more. I want to see how you develop as a poet.
