pleading angel song.

tilting her head back against the cold
a tree frozen behind her, guardian of old
her voice, clothed in white
echoing softly this winter night.
is beautiful

leaves crack in the valley below
whispers travel along unbroken snow
fire burns in pleading angel song
just one thing, for so long.
and now

eyes burn as moonlight shows
more than she, her passion grows
beneath the fall of shadows two,
her gaze is locked solely on you.
tonight

    I read this a couple time so I would be sure what my comment would be fair and it will be, cause I did like the flow of this and it is nice cause it can work free verse or rhyme.

    The imagery was very well done and the words you used, really stood out. Its like I could really feel the cold and I love winter, and its hot here, where I am at and I actually left to a cold place when reading this. I actually like this the first time and a little more the second. It was short and strange how you put it together where the meaning came out within the three different sections. It was deserving of the reward it was given for you put thought into this. Thanks it was enjoyable and will have to read more of your work and see how many different styles of writing , you may have and this one is very good. thanks and you cant go to wrong with this style .

    This was a great poem and I loved the flow of rhyme in this one. Great job and keep writing.

  • It has potential.

    I like the mood of the second stanza alot, but the rhyme seems a bit off or forced in some bits, it doesn't really work. Maybe it seems the rhyme isn't crucial, so write it free verse? But the other two stanzas could use some work to maybe make there be emotion and imagery and description, because it's a little bit lacking there.

    It could use some work.

    This is beautiful. You did a great job of creating a serene, cool setting while still portraying really strong emotions. Your phrasing is absolutely phenomenal.

  • good

    I loved how you painted vivid picture in your writing

  • 1st stanza, beautiful picture.
    "tree frozen behind her" gives us a good image of winter

    something about whispers heard in a valley is really eerie. i like it.

    theres an odd feeling of longing to this.
    its lovely

    I like the image you set with this poem. Your word choice was on point. Good job.

    -beneath the fall of shadows two,
    her gaze is locked solely on you.

    I love the way this rhymed and also the way it was written and the image it created. Nice job :]

    Thanks for entering and good luck in the contest :]

  • This is a beautiful poem! The imagery and tone are wonderful. My favorite lines are:

    more than she, her passion grows
    beneath the fall of shadows two,

    Those lines describe love perfectly! Great job!

  • wow this is soo beautiful!

    This is absolutely stunning.

    I was so absorbed while reading this that I had to go back and read it again.

    I like how you linked this with the prompt. I have such a vivid picture in my head that I want to paint it!

    "leaves crack in the valley below
    whispers travel along unbroken snow"
    This left me in awe. Honestly, the picture of perfection. You mix sounds and sights and everything else in this piece. I can almost feel myself there in the cold air.

    "her gaze is locked solely on you"
    Is powerful in the most simple of ways~ And the way you add "tonight" on a new line is daring, but fits the poem perfectly.

    Thank you for entering, and good luck! x
