molotovcocktailontherocks 2008-06-21 ch 1,	abuseVery beautiful and it's not often that I see such an awesome rhyme scheme on this site! Well done!
Chameleon81 2007-04-19 ch 1,	abuseI too enjoyed the "Why so silent" on each line. It really emphasized the the feeling of the poem. I expected the poem to be different judging from it's title and was pleasantly surprised. I really liked it.
CyberDragon10K 2007-04-02 ch 1,	abuseI really love this poem. It takes an irregular rhyme scheme and spins a lovely (if entrapping) web of creativity. I love the repitition of the "why so silent,-" line in every stanza. It's an excellent way to emphasize a feeling. ^^ True the subject matter is dark, terrible (as in evil), and some may say even morbid... I identify more with the sadness honestly. My grandparents passed away some years ago, and I still remember when my grandpa would pick me up from school back in Kindergarten. :/ I don't suppose it would've been too much trouble for the man to mourn for his wife, would it? Meh... we humans respond more readily to emotional women anyway. :x Excellent piece; definitely a new favorite. :]
A. E. Custer 2007-03-13 ch 1,	abusebeautiful imagery but the ending really topped it off for me great job - added to my favorites
Daughter of the Faeries 2007-01-04 ch 1,	abuseI am very impressed with this poem and your style of writing. The repetition of the first line ("Why so silent,") really brought the stanzas together. I am also glad to see that there is another writer out there who still sticks to rhyming poetry. It seems like most of the poems here on FP are freestyle, so I am always delighted when I stumble across another rhyming poet. Great job!
Wolf's Night 2007-01-03 ch 1,	abuseAgain awsome writing. Liked how you stuck to the format with the question. Very nice picture painted too.
Dani P 2006-11-30 ch 1,	abuseLove this poem. I like the view you took. I had an idea of what the poem would be about from the title, and it ended up bieng totally different from my idea, but fit the title so well. I loved it. I'd be honored if you could critique a few of mine.
Kumquat21 2006-10-18 ch 1,	abuseWaah! Again, so tragic, and excellent! keep up the good work!
Arf106 2006-09-08 ch 1,	abuseThis poem gives me the chills ^.^ Very good!! And I have updated, thanks for the review, the first chapter is more of a prologue, it's supposed to make you want to continue reading!! Thank you for reading!!
Fiore Chnudth 2006-08-23 ch 1,	abusePoetry you have a talent for too, it would seem. I wonder if maybe sometime you could adapt a bit of poetry into your stories too? Maybe someone singing a song, someone chanting in fear or something like this!? I liked how this poems had the original trademarks of poetry with the rhyming, but how it was not the 'common' lines that rhymed, but it was nr. 1+4 and 2+3. This was good. Maybe the first paragraph could be, to make the rhyme clearer: "Why so silent, sweet red rose?Why do your petals fade?On your leaves, ice heavily weigh,and lost in winter's snows." Just i little change in the third line and just an arrogant suggestion. :-) KH KHL
Anaare 2006-08-07 ch 1,	abuseA beautiful and moving poem, which I have enjoyed reading very much. The diction, the choice of words, the imagery. All are of a wonderful quality I have been missing lately. So, well done and please continue writing!
scribblemuse 2006-08-05 ch 1,	abuseAt first I thought this was going to be about another eerie churchyard, and almost didn't open it...but I my assumptions were incorrect, and pleasantly so. Your questioning method of poetry moved me to dramatic sadness. Keep it up. Peace, scribblemuse.
Ace of Roses 2006-08-02 ch 1,	abuseClassy. Very picturesque. It'd make a great painting. Or something.
Elle Blaisure 2006-08-02 ch 1,	abuseWow! Beautiful and lurid writing, bravo!
