 Pheobe Meryll 2005-08-22 . chapter 1A very emotional and encompassing poem. A couple of times your rhymthm was inturrupted by one of your lines being too long ("God, I found You in the water; I was cleaned"). The first little verse ("I call upon the Spirit") didn't work out as well poetically as the rest, but the poem did warm up as it went on. I don't know why you have the echoes in paranthasese - is it to make it like a song? I have seen that format before, and it always disturbs the emotional flow of the piece for me. But that's just a personal quirk, of course so don't mind me!
Great imagery. A beautiful religious peice. Best luck! |
