 Eirien 2004-06-30 . chapter 1Beautiful. I like the atmosphere of longing and wistfulness and moonshine that is created, already through the title. A lovely piece, and I agree with Ivriniel, the frame with the repetitions at the beginning and end is a nice idea, and that fourth stanza is really strong and impactful with the one-word-lines and their parallelism. I really like this poem a lot.
Btw, I wanted to explain why I have removed you from one of my fave authors lists: As you might know, I've got two accounts on FP, and on my Eirien account the maximum was reached, but I wanted to add another author, so I decided to remove those authors I had on both accounts from one of them in order to make room for others. But you still remain one of my fave authors, you are still on the list on my Edraith account. Just in case you wondered. ;-) |
 Captain Blunderbuss 2004-05-13 . chapter 1Why is it that the best poetry is always written in times of distress or depression or confusion? It is the best time to unleash the emotions we bottle up after every tiny thing that we go through each day. *Sigh* Very nice, and most likely severalfold more meaningful than I can ever realize. Seriously, I do like your stuff, quit worrying. |
 Virgo Child 2004-03-07 . chapter 1I really like the flow of this. I'm not the best with interpreting poetry, but I think I'm getting the jist of it when I say that the narrator is missing "the good old days" and her old friendships. The sense of melancholy surrounding her reminiscence is palpable, and I dunno... it touched me. I feel like I can relate. Good job. :o) |
