Comments : Sculpture and trees nurture.

    A truly breathtaking piece with a bit of sadness to it. Truly beautiful descriptions you used here.

    "the misery of frost on it's branches"

    This line, alone, was already very nicely said and my favorite from this piece.

    In the beginning of the poem, you used "too," when I think you meant "to." I just wanted to point that out. This poem was very nice, and though the flow could use some more work, I liked it a lot.

    Dorotea (and, by the way, thanks for your comment on my poem. I appreciate it a lot...and thanks for the critique :)

    Ah... firstly I gotta offer some grammatical help:
    "Began the growth of a tree,
    from acorn, too spout, too root,
    too stem and then too leaf,
    fresh and young it grew
    strongly, well nurtured,
    well kept at least
    at first."
    EVERY 'too' in that was wrong. It should have been 'to'. If you want to email me and maybe i can tell you why. Trust me, I use to struggle with 'to' and 'too' also. Also, you may want to check your "it's" and "its" I saw a few wrong. Remember "it's" is short for "it is".
    But, apart from that, i LOVED it. you used such AMAZING description. "the image of a girl of angelic looks", there were some delicately crafted stanzas. From start to finish, you kept me intrigue.
    Just watch out for a few minor mistakes ;)
    Apart from that, I loved it! You're AMAZING for your age.

    As Marjan cared to tell you, a beautiful piece of poetry. Original as hell...

    Creative...To use a tree and a sculpture was simply brilliant.,

    Your descriptions are wonderful, and to make such a good poem at your age is most remarkable...

    I thought I was the youngest of the serious writers...

    keep it up man...

    I'm sorry if this wasn't to much help, but I have one hell of a hangover...
