It flows very well but for me it was a little unclear with the full meaning, but that's just me.

Beautiful. I really love how you ended it. I'm putting you on my favorites list!

i really enjoyed this one. i'm a sucker for the small details, like "your hair falls against your cheek." good. so long.

What can I say; you have an absolutely natural gift for excellent poetry.
Wonderful.
Keep Writing!

Im a really bad reviewer so all i can say is this is a really good poem. One thing that is (well, it isnt wrong) but it doesnt really flow easily. But thats okay because maybe it sdoesnt need to.

wow, it's very good! so long... but thoughtful and descriptive. keep up the good work!

i liked this so much i read it three times. i will probably read it more after i finish this... it really is beautiful. you're drawing from quite a variety of images here, but they don't push each other around - they manage to coexist amongst each other quite well, threads of colour twining together. I love the thought in "I know you see this as a time/ of preparation, but I cannot/ help but wish you saw it/ as a time of life".
I also like the way you've separated the verses, it really fits well for this piece to have the 's between the sections.
i'll stop now! *zip*
