"I must despairs" is intentional for the second to last line?
Definitely conveys a sense of hopelessness.

Intrigued at first by the style. But this has a teen-angst thesaurized feel to it, still.
"emitted"?
I do like this though: "Weakened by your taste, aroused by the newly
formed light has made this midnight a lamp unto the darkened soul within"
gotta say.

an abrubt ending, but still some nice tidbits in there.
Maybe tone down the punctuation, let the form drive the timing. Good one.

nice tone, but too short - it doesn't bring me anywhere or even full circle.

A nice job with a topic I know nothing about - having said that, I think you ran out of steam at about here:
"Why couldn't you have survived
And let the dark angels pass you by?"
From that point on... I dunno, it looses something.
What is there, however, is very strong.

I think you got word-heavy on this one, D - but I agree, it is a little ominous.

"Revivifying " don't see that one much. Consisten rhyming scheme, with a change on the refrain.
Kasturi is Indian, no?
You might want to trim some prepositions, maybe? Why do I harp on that so?

You're gonna haveta help me with this one I think.
I'm trying at least - ozone layer destruction?
It is a very nice start to something - but I think I need, or most people will need, more to get involved.

That is pretty damn sweet, I gotta say. Enjoy the emotion, my friend - enjoy the emotion.
couple spellings for you if you like:
"wasen't" s/b "wasn't",
"haden't", "hadn't" - except, as you may know - the misspellings add to the effect of the poem.
Good luck.

I like these - I'm not keen on the god theme (and I noticed you capitalized it here, and not on the last one) and I think it would be fine without it - but hey - it's your thang.
Carry on.

Re: Your Eyes Are Like Stearling Saphires in the month of June by tisa7 |

Hi t7 - a pretty thing, but a couple spellings:
"Sterling", "Sapphires" and "threw" should be "through" and I don't know if you meant "painful" or did the painflu on purpose.
"in to" should prolly be "into"

3 spaces between comma and the "I'll" in the 3rd stanza
I guess it works as a "prose poem" - but why? This could be said in far fewer words and cleaner as a less verbose (or nounose) poem.

"The flowerâs been washed clean." specify flower - fix meter.
"The ghosts are coming through" - weak description - fixable.

This is pretty funny in that I just posted a slightly similar thing. I hadn't read this.
Interesting. I like the feel of it quite a bit, you've got a couple capitalization things, worthy of an edit, that keep me from giving it a 10, otherwise, well, I would.

2 triolets, almost - why you mess with formula, boy? Do you feel that repeating the frame of the first line in the first line of the second stanza makes up for the change in the second to last line of the first? I might go for that. Sure, why not - you're entitled to your opinion of what a triolet is. Absolutely.
I like the second half of that first stanza, starting from slip. Has a nice flow and sound to it. Except I missss the logic of thisss sssound she makesss over the fields, or why, or how this adds to the "trouble" of the day.
These commas - are you purposely trying to kill the flow? Espec. L3 in S2
Nice solid concept though with the early snow on an uncut field of hay. Makes sense. Then, right away, you talk more about hay. Hey.
"hay-smelling" ... very evocative, btw. Does that mean it "smells like hay"? That you miss the smell of hay? Or maybe you are anthropomorphising autumn by giving it a nose. How you must miss that nose.
This is the best thing you've ever written.
