abuseI really enjoyed reading this, the comparison between the person and the season flows really well. The use of autumn colours was done well, the whole poem conjured up the vivid imagery of a couple in a park, surrounded by falling red and yellow foliage. Very beautiful scenery. As I said, I enjoyed reading this but I've always found the line-gap-line layout of poems...I can't think of the word, but I think this poem would read better if it were broken up into stanzas. Other than that, I like. Well done.

Peace, Daze

abuseStanzas! Structure! This piece is craving them. I know FP is a little tricky but there is a way to get stanzas and get rid of all the little irritating line breaks. To do this go to quick/edit window after uploading your document. Then, working from the bottom, backspace then SHIFT+Enter each individual space. Keep playing around with it til it works.

Two other suggestions:

1. Be careful of your punctuation. Both of your semi-colons are unnecessary - the first should be a colon and the second one, no punctuation is necessary.
2. Why not name the shades instead of simply the colors? I've always found that adds another level to various images.

Overall, I really enjoyed the language and imagery of this piece. It's a great metaphor and you carry it through with great cohesion.

Finally, check out the Review Marathon, it's part of the Review Game - there's a link in my profile. Great way to give and receive reviews.

abuseWhoa, this was... great! I loved the abundance of unique and vivid imagery in this, and many of the ideas - though a bit clichéd - left a smile on my face. Anyways, good job on this.

abuseI'm going to be completely honest with you.
That was one of the BEST poems I have ever read.
I would pick a favourite line for you, but I really can't; there's too many to choose from!
*Bows* I'm poetically humbled by this piece.
I think I'll go read it again. :)
