Pimpled Boy 2005-11-06 ch 1,	abuseI really love the powerful imagery of this poem. I also love the choice of your words. They really convey the message vividly to the reader. Continue writing!

citrus scented 2005-10-20 ch 1,	abusethis is delicate and elegantly woven. the images it conujures up are priceless, and cleverly written.
Cyssel 2005-10-16 ch 1,	abuseHaven't reviewed you in a while! Let's see... I like the way you started. Seemed to captivate me already. The run-on lines seem to give this a mystical, floating feel. The images seem very 'old', which fits this ancient tradition.
Nobody-n-Particular 2005-10-07 ch 1,	abuseRich in contour and shape; full of meaning and loveliness.
AboveTheSalt 2005-10-06 ch 1,	abusein this poem, you have managed to artfully capture the subtlety and mysticism of the moon without being either too evasive or too blunt. it's like a well-crafted watercolor, leaving behind only a gentle, shadowy memory of the subject. your choice of precise, delicate words definitely highlighted the moon's more wistful nuances - there isn't just one line that exemplifies this; it's the whole poem. beautiful, beautiful, as always. -salt.
not sure yet 2005-10-03 ch 1,	abuseso very beautiful, i love the chopped style of it, awesome imagery and just, i dont know, i wish i had words, lovely poem
UnsungbutWritten 2005-10-02 ch 1,	abusehaunting... i loved it! and boy, you're articulate! i'm jealous of your vocabulary. O_O amazed
LemonFlats 2005-09-30 ch 1,	abuseDid you know that people drive more dangerously during the full moon? I personally love the full moon, because of its (relative) rarity and mysterious beauty; at the same time, I fear it because everything just seems so much more like a horror film during it. You use more advanced words than I'm used to (stupid school system... I've never had a teacher that tought proper English, and I've been at school for over a decade), but your imagery is perfect. So delicately pretty.
Aimee Raven 2005-09-26 ch 1,	abuseOh this one is so gorgeous! But I LOVE the full moon! Something great happens to me every full moon ^_^ hehe! This does however somehow make me shiver, your choice of words is astounding, as ever! Rather dark though! Awesome work! Love, Mia
a headless butterfly 2005-09-25 ch 1,	abusevery pretty poem :D i don't know what hoarfrost is though haha. funnily enough, i'm chinese and i totally didn't celebrate mid-autumn festival this year ;D "intimately,trickles of white silkthread through brush-strokes." this really brings across the chinese mid-autumnness. the rest of the poem does too, but it's less so, more...floaty. very nice :D
youzi 2005-09-25 ch 1,	abuseA very mystical, fairy-tale portrayl of the mid-autumn festivities...really liked the lovely images like "faint bolts of brocade" and "stitched tapestry"..not too sure about "hoarfrost" though...unless it's winter (this could just be due to my unfamiliarity with the seasons!). do keep writing =D
La Gitane 2005-09-24 ch 1,	abuseOh, very very beautiful. The words you choose are gorgeous, they have a melodic tinkle that carry through the lines... you have lovely imagery too - all these combine to give a great atmosphere to the poem. Ah, selecting lines is going to be difficult... your first stanza is wonderful, but the occult hymns and 'water diluted/shadows: filtering soft' is also masterful. favourites Well done!
dooley creel 2005-09-23 ch 1,	abusevery beautiful, but also intricate, complex and unexpected, I like that, it imparts a feeling of shifting dreamlike images, yet there is an overal thread and continuity, ingenious. dc
