In case you hadn't guessed I'm reading all your poems, but I'm only commenting on the ones that I feel like I truly understand. I realise that much of poetry is interpretation, but still, I don't want to keep commenting on poem after poem saying only the same thing - I like it, I love it, I want some more of it.
Alas, that's what I'm doing.
I really liked this poem, it was evocative and used imagery very effectively.

You were right . . . lovely flow to this, like the ebbing of the sea. Beautiful, just beautiful. Your images and language, just spot on. Thanks for stearing me here! Zen

I read it through several times and each time my brain picked a different topic to focus on. The change in time of day, persons age. Very cool. I love the images dreams and nighttime images. Well done.

This poem was absolutely beautiful. It used wonderful imagery, had wonderful rhythm and evoked emotion. This is something that should be published in an anthology.

This poem touched my heart, the rhyme, the flow everything. This is my favorite:
The innocence of morning light,
When children's dreams as birds take flight.
Believe that life and love go on
and search again for sirens' song
The amber glow of waking sun,
will guide the way till day is done.

Thank you for this great poem I really enjoyed reading it. I has good flowing phrases and I like the rhythm that you have chose. When I write its like listening to music I find a bet and let it flow 123 123 2468 you get me. Keep up the good work.

personification of night and day is good. its nice to see both night and day written in a positive way as opposed to night being written as evil. is the way theyre called lovers based on the myth of the moon chasing the sun and wasting away?

Mrgrunty, I enjoyed your poem, it paints a wonderful picture as well as having good word choice. Each time I read it it gets better. Great job.

I enjoyed the sing-song feel of the rhyming and the flow of words. It was imaginative and child-like, much akin to Peter Pan or Alice Through The Looking Glass fantasy. This was a great visual read.

Oh God... this is lovely! ^___^ It's wonderful! Sugoi! (that's Japanese for wonderful)
(reads again)
(sweatdrops) I'm trying to make a more indepth review, but I'm having trouble. I just keep on thinking that it's wonderful.
I suppose that's how the term "awestruck" came to pass. ^^
