I really enjoy your poetry, very nice flow. Adrian H. Wood replies: "Thanks a lot, I realize this one's a bit complex and I think I might change it at some point so every1 picks up on what I'm banging on about " | |
| 7 Jun 2004 | Nicholas G. DeBruno | Loading...OoOoO, I didn't know you wrote poetry! I love poetry. And I thought this poem rocked! It had a great rhythm, almost like a....bounce? Anyway, great words, great ideas, and wonderfully formatted! Adrian H. Wood replies: "Thankies, and yes, I do indeed write poetry! In fact, half the pieces up in my library are poems, lol. So far the 'Dwarven Drinking Song' has proven to be the most popular one, followed by 'The Mogrem'" | |
| 8 Jun 2004 | Wolf | Loading...Loverly imagery and great idea but this poem didnt feel as natural as your others, it doesnt scan as well. Adrian H. Wood replies: "I think you might have a point... this was my premiere poem after all, so the style is possibly a bit awkward. It's still my favourite though, most probably because it was my first. Or maybe because I'm the only one who 'gets' it, lol." | |
| 8 Jun 2004 | E Purington | Loading...excellent! I think you lie. You are an AMAZING poet! being all shy and modest "oh I am not much of a poet..." pish posh. How else could one write a beautifuly line such as: Loins of the shrub sprout fi’ry boon...I mean COMMON! tis only Shakespeare hath matched ingenius of the mind...alright, did that make no sense or is it just me...I am trying to say that you have a wonderful way with words, and I know that talent like this should not be wasted. Keep up the awesome work, mate, and you'll go far Adrian H. Wood replies: "Hehe, well thank you for believing in me. I'm not sure I should compare myself with Shakespeare though, less I have illusions of grandeur. Ok, so who's for Romeo and Julliet Part 2, lol? Anyways, cheers very much for reading and being so nice!" | |
| 9 Jun 2004 | Wolf | Loading...Do please enlighten me!! Adrian H. Wood replies: "Ok... basically the normal lines is the King of the Wood's speaking, he's a bit of an idiot and very arrogant, so he thinks with his great power he has finally scared off Winter, when in reality Winter is just over and it's the beginning of Spring, he's basically just full of himself. The second voice, the one in italics, is what's really going on, it's the descriptive or objective voice if you want. It describes what is going on all around the Wood King, like the flowers are blossoming and that it's all just the natural course of nature. The duality and conflict of the two voices is meant to be sarcastic and funny, but nobody picked up on the fact that I'm trying to portray the Wood King as conceited and dumb, lol. Read between the lines people! Nah... it's my own fault really, I think I was trying to be too clever with this and the language is a bit over the top... ah well, at least I like it " | |
| 10 Jun 2004 | Wolf | Loading...Er yea and you just explained it to me and any1 else who bothers to read  Adrian H. Wood replies: "Yeah but nobody reads the comments before they read the story " | |
| 10 Jun 2004 | Wolf | Loading...Right now the italics and normal writing make sense it may be better if you tell us that at the top so wee know what we're looking for?!  Adrian H. Wood replies: "Nah, only I'm allowed to understand the poem" | |
| 23 Jul 2004 | Aura Moontide | Loading...Oh.....i love you poem....your deffenitly going to make it big if you tryed.....and i like your picture your pretty cute...lol Adrian H. Wood replies: "Glad you like the poem and glad you like the picture Even if it's a really old one... Thanks for dropping by!" | |
| 23 Sep 2004 | Lyndsay E. Gilbert aka Liadan | Loading...I see no one has commented on this in a while. It should get constant comments. Your style is excellent. You should consider getting it published if you have'nt already. Excellent. Adrian H. Wood replies: "Nope, never considered getting things published... I think I have a long way to go before then. Besides, I wouldn't know where anyway lol." | |
| 10 May 2006 | Dan Shevock | Loading...Excellent. I came here on a random search and was pleasantly surprised. Your mastery of language is my favorite component, while the story told is interesting, particularly this time of year. | |
