Thanks so much for all the reviews and likes guys!! Im so honored to have this piece be a freatured work! Keep the reviews coming! Crtique always welcome!
I'll return the favor of your wonderful comments on my essay about Potter http://t.co/gQzc0GV. I did love that your tribute was more about how Harry helped and affected you and not as much about the series itself. I tried to go that way with mine, but I think there is an unstated imagery and beauty that poetry brings about in our minds that is unparalleled by simple prose and descriptive essay-writing. That's also what makes poetry so much harder to grasp and write than prose and dialogue. You touched on some very deep and sensitive issues here, and we all should thank you for having the courage to put them out on the public forum.
As you commented on my piece, Harry will never die as long as (as Albus said) he lives in the hearts of those that are still loyal to him. I feel like I could summon the proverbial Fawkes that represents the Harry Potter series with the loyalty that I show to it just as Harry did for Dumbledore in the Chamber of Secrets. Thanks for this great work of art.
I'm not the biggest harry potter fan but I like your poem. It really does make me feel a sense of belonging to the world she created with the books and movies. It's a way to escape and to express the things which reality cannot express. I like how you stated that it was there for you as if it were a loyal friend comforting you. I like this mainly because movies and writing are my way of escaping from this world and when I concentrate I'm actually good at it. Your poem is not perfect but no matter how great a writer is we all are with fault. I don't believe writing is right or wrong because grammar was created by man as a way to order our expression. Everything created by man isn't exactly correct it's just a standard. So, keep on writing because your style is great.
This was a good poem, although it seemed a tad bit choppy. Otherwise, I loved it. ;D I absolutely love reading Harry Potter as I have grown up with it as being one of very few reprieves in this malevolent world, and with that which you included in your poem, I can deeply empathize. Congratulations on writing a magnificent piece. Keep up the good work!

I can't even begin to express how moved I was when I read this poem. It's magical. That is the only word I can come up with to describe this craft of words being out together: magical. You've hit the nail on the head of describing in such a simple way how most of us all have felt as we read this story of a boy- we all escaped through Harry Potter and the story of his life. We were there for him and his friends through the good times and the bad times, we shared the laughs and we shared the tears.
Harry Potter simply isn't just a story, it's a search for home. That place where we all feel safe in the pages of what a story should be like, and how we become so attached those we read about.
What you wrote here is beautiful. Absolutely moving. I was nearly brought to tears as I read through it, and I honestly cannot say one negative thing about it.
