THE MOMENT TO TREASURE Don’t say a word, darling ‘Cause I understand Your pretty eyes are Lost beneath the weary skies. Please enjoy this moment We both longed for Though this can not last It’ll remain in my heart. Whether you remember The things you said You will hold onto my soul Lest it wonders astray. The gaze of your eyes Catches the last of crimson clouds Here in my dream I shall treasure all. Jõmes |

Hi ^_^ yeah, this is a good poem.. probably the only thing is that u used 'wonders'.. instead of 'wanders'.. but, could be a typo.. And.. "the gaze of your eyes" .. umm.. eyes do not "own" the gaze.. it is something they do.. so perhaps this line warrants a little bit of experimenting. ^_^ I remember u said u wanted criticism, but this is all I can find to criticise in this poem.. it is well written. ^_^ Lynne |

thanks Lynne, yes the wonder thing was a typo, but hmm, the gaze of you eyes, I probably need hone on my English skill a bit more. But yeah, thanks a lot for your criticism, I have a feeling that people in this site always give compliments rather than criticism, We need to be criticized eh? Jõmes |

If it's criticism you'd like, may I suggest our Critical Analysis Forum ? |

Hey James.. yeah I know I have already replied to this poem of yours.. but as this is my favourite of those I have read, I'm just 'bumping' it up in the list.. I said earlier, about a phrase in the poem.. "The gaze of your eyes".. totally ignore it, hehe.. I like this just the way it is.. and if u change a thing, debo cortar tu cabeza! ^_^ joking.. -Lynne |

What a beautiful poem...I love reading poems like yours when I can actually relate to the feeling..I am going through something now that your poem describes well...< !signature--> You can never have too much fiction; reality can be such a bore [This message has been edited by Lady Lost (edited 07-19-2000).] |
