Reviews For: Too Blue

I like 2 things about this: how you connect the idea of excess ('too blue', 'too comforting') to your whole concept of wanting to fly, and the greed that comes along with the 'want' ("if only I could be like a bird/who wishes they were a fish instead") which makes it so impposible to satisfy. Everything is so connected to this poem - I especially love the fish-bird cycle. I want what the bird has, only realizing later that you have what the bird would want ("I can swim so why can't I fly?"). Wonderful.

I loved the dreaminess of this poem, and the beginning where everyhting is 'too' something... It's very effective! I also loved thevery end where you say the bird probabaly longs to swim... It's- actually,I don't have the word for it, but it's good! ^^;

Actually, I guess the birds that can both fly AND swim would have the best of both worlds... Like kingfishers or whatever! =P

Anyway, thankyou for your kind words of my various peices of writing... It's much appriciated! =)

I was inspired by the 8th line. I've always wanted to fly. *sigh* Oh well... *wanders off*
