Comment from GregoryC
The descriptions are so creative and originally conceived. The rhyming tale reveals a wondrous imagination, expressed so well in lyrical language and musical tone. Nice work.

Wow. What a wonderful depiction of a wedding day. I don't believe I've ever read a better one. You get my final six star for the week, this piece is amazing.

Comment from Steve Pantazis
I stand corrected. You've improved your tale. I guess I should pay attention to the Author Notes section more. You said you were going to append to the first part, and you did. Another marvelous performance, m'dear.

Comment from Wild Flower
This was a wonderful trilogy you've created. I'm so glad I got to read all three of them. I thought the "his crown of saffron gilt" was a very original description. Thanks for inviting us to the wedding too!

Your poetry flows like a gentle stream. It's so nice to read and this one is no exception.
As you know, I'm not familiar with all the forms of poetry, so I appreciate the notes. Very lovely series. Patty

Thanks so much, Patty - I appreciate your great comments - and the longer you're on this site, the more of those forms you'll learn! Brooke :-)
Comment from Just2Write
This poem is progressing nicely. It lets us peek in on the ceremony in the woodland, as invited guests might do. This form really works well with this poem. There is always a charm about the special link between man and fairies. I think it has much to do with their ability to live in harmony with nature. That feeling certainly comes through in this poem. Rose.

Comment from teafor2
adewpearl--This sequel provides additional
peripheral (pertinent) details employed in
this grand event. Moreover, the gathering
fosters idealistic good will in magnificent
style and manner: A valuable lesson to be
gleaned from such telling observations. I
was remiss in not speaking to the poetics
of part one, I will correct the oversight.
Anyone who compose or attempt to compose any
structured/constrained forms of scribble (re-
gardless of the genre) can easily relate to
the degree(s) of difficulty, but when using
"poetic feet", that's extremely challenging
for the author and conversely, quite rewarding
for the reader. Case-in-point, pentameter is
held as the "...most neutral and most flexible
for all poetic purposes," add iamb and rhyme
to this mix and music is made! I am racing to
the final piece of music. teafor2
