I enjoyed your story in a poem contest entry, YM. I like the light-heated, whimsical feel of it, but it still has the makings of a love story. I like the ending, too. Your rhymes, meter, and imagery are great. Thanks for sharing and best wishes.
Respectfully, Jan

This was like pure license to read an adult fairy tale (literally)--in verse and rhyme. I loved every word, the background color, the image selected, the love captured as though you picked a bushel of sparkling stars and shared them with us! I am enchanted that YOU are enchanted.--Karenina

This work has reached the exceptional level

Well now, if that doesn't explain just about everything about you and your extreme imagination! LOL, I should have known you came from another realm... you had too much first-hand knowledge of all that to have made it all up, BLOTS! ;)

This story poem, Fantastical Reflections, has a fun tale of your former fae state that has been transformed into this human status. Glad you switched?

What a beautiful love story. With a catch like that, why would anyone care about having wings? Very captivating and very whimsical. I look forward to what your muse brings out of you now that school is our!

What a very touching and loving poem. So the fairy came down from above, captivated by brown eyes, and stayed in the human realm. Good for her - and good luck in the contest.

Stay safe
Judy

Excellent piece of work and I liked the presentation and style of the poem. Actually the poem is fantastic itself and I liked every bit of it. Excellent word choice and rich vocabulary. Keep it up by writing more. I highly recommend your work to others

I absolutely loved this. The only thing I can even think of to recommend is that in the part about the leaves in yonder tree, it would sound better as 'on yonder tree,' but still, this poem was very awesome.

what a lovely experience reading your very poetic poem
love the mysterious whimsical language
the story is so endearing and so pleased the finale put the two characters together in such a mysterious way
I am sure her wings were well sacrificed for this beautiful love poem
the flow and cadence is fine and the true and near rhymes work well
have a smiley day
