    It was ok. Its form poetry which is always tough to do which is why i stay away from it, its too constricting. But you used the form well so I gave you a 5/5. Keep up the good work.

    I think that this was cute and sweet, i dont think that it was the best acrostic i have read, but for a 7 lined acrostic is was good.
    Love Tara-Kay

    You used repetition in the poem. I do not like repetition because your saying the same thing over and over again.

    "Evolving beauties"
    "love, beauty, desires"
    "natural beauties"

    Now I don't mind that you used it three times. But it is only a 7 line poem. You could of done much better than this. Perhaps saying alternative words such as:

    Aesthetic.
    Gorgeous.
    or
    Stunning.

    [You would of gotten major points for Aesthetic].

    It's not excellent. Sorry, it's a good poem. I do not doubt that.

    Actually i don't know if it was the depthness or the imaginations or description that confuses me.. i love the imagination but it seems so blur to me. i love acrostic too and i guess you manage it very well.. but i really like the other one "mermaid" though i know this is also a unique piece.

    Ending line is so powerful and it adds special tone to the poem.
    Repetition of words in the poems usually leaves awful expression, you used word beauty in this short poem tree times but I still like it, because it don't actually destroy the flow and I personally like what you did whit that. Well done, good job, very creative and imagery is excellent trough whole piece.

    The only thing that threw me off with this peom was the use of beauty or beauties so much it kind of made the flow a little off balance. The topic again was great fantasy enjoyed that of it. Good style although I'm not quite the fan of them but if you can pull them off then well done. An enjoyable read. Keep up the good work~Mel

    "question believe?"
    ^^ Though, I completely understand what that is saying, I don't quite like how it's worded.

    Other than that I quite like this poem.
    We had this topic the other day in school. Haha.

    I love mermaids. (:
    Good question as well, darling.
    Keep it up.

    Beautiful.
    acrostic poems are so very difficult because of how restricting they are.
    this is brilliant what you have done
    5.5

    Wow, this is one truly enchanting acrostic poem! I usually don't read poems about nature but this one really got my attention from the beginning to the end. You have beautiful atmosphere in the whole poem, and your descriptions are very good.
    Captivating and original piece.
    Keep writing, you have a way with words!
