Alright so my fist actual post to this guild that I have been in.
So I want to know what you all think.
I like honest, polite and nice critique.
Thank You.




*~Angel’s Feathers~*


Melodious pallid feathers
Floating sensitively in my mind
Illuminating the shadowy dusk

I sit quietly on the edge of the diluted mirror
Smiling at the pleasing site
My sleepy thoughts vaguely reflect
The feeling that I get
From the idea of you

Stomach becomes light and excited
Cheeks are dusted with ruby

Turning speedily backwards
I glimpse your cerulean eyes
Your deep garnet hair dancing in the nonexistent wind
Your placid smile upon your copper skin
Your opal wings framing your male figure

I can’t help but run to you

Extending out to you with my frail hand
Begging for you to take it again
Saving me from the shadows of myself

Consuming love
Feathered embrace
Air dissolving kiss

I can’t breathe

Wanting this to be forever
It's crushing to love you
But without you
I couldn’t make it

I can’t help but love you
My Guardian Angel

Hey Taki ^.^

First of all, welcome to the guild!

Yeah, I think this is a good poem. I like the way you describe things, and the picture you create with it. This poem reminds me of a time/experience in my life.

The only thing (that I see) that could be considered a bad thing in this poem, is something that I think is a good thing, lol. Some might say that its overly wordy, or you use too many words that people might not know (Walt Whitman would say this for instance). I like poems like that because it forces me to increase my vocabulary. So all in all I thought this was a wonderful poem. Look forward to seeing more of your poetry. biggrin

P.S. Sixth line from the bottom should read It's crushing to love you, instead of It crushing to love you.

Thank you so very much! *smiles* You made my day by telling me that you liked it.
And not to mention I'm SO glad that you liked the images. Thats my favorite part to write and basically the main reason why I wrote this poem.
Arigato!! 3nodding

And thank you for pointing out my mistake. sweatdrop I'll see if I can go fix that.

Hi Taki-chan! I like this poem. It's very pretty and I like the imagery. (especially the 'mind feathers' bit). (This next part isn't exactly criticism, but more like advice for future poems since I like this one the way it is.) I think in your next poems you should try to include a few more senses. In this one, Sight is the primary one used. I think you could make even more fantastic poems if you included some more Sound, Smell or Touch. (and avoid using overused phrases) Yeah, that's all I got. Kepp up the good work! biggrin biggrin biggrin biggrin
