How long did you work on this? It has the effortless feel of beautiful poetry, but it's so perfect I could only believe it if you told me you spent hours hammering the kinks out. Seriously, please give me an answers in hours, if not days.
The reason I ask that is because the rest of the poem doesn't quite stand up to the first part. If you could make that flawless jewel, why is the rest second grade? (I mean second grade in respect to the first part, the entire poem deserves to be ranked far above anything else you might call second grade)
I counted syllables (I've too much time) and even though they all match up, these lines still seem awkward.
Furthermore, 'sail' is repeated here. Maybe you enjoy it, but I dislike repetition unless used very skillfully.
Also 'many' here:
Once again, I love that first part (Stanza? I dunno) and I don't think you should ever change it.

Talk about a mind blown.
You did everything perfectly, from the lack of errors to the beauty of itself. (Oh, look, I'm getting all inspirational here.)
Of us all being writers, what you wrote basically described us all in, what, sixteen lines? The way you framed it all gave off an uplifting tone (there I go again). I especially LOVE (that's L.O.V.E) that in the first stanza you described the difference between a reader and a writer against someone looking from a different point of view.
PUH-LEASE KEEP WRITING THIS AWESOMENESS!!!!
I loved this poem!
You described a book perfectly,and being a fellow writer myself,I know how important books are for us
Keep the the awesome work!
Hey I really liked this
Although, this part seemed a bit cliche
A book is like a whole new world,
Where words fly and embrace the mind,
I love this. I absolutely love it. You completely embraced what a book is to many people. People who don't understand why people like to read should READ and analyze this. I could go on and on about this piece. I LOVE IT!!
I really liked this poem. It held real meaning, and I could feel thatu felt very strongly about the subject. That is one of the most important things in writing. U need to make the reader feel like u care about the subject a lot and that is what u do. This was an amazing poem. The rythme and rhyme fitin with everything so beautifly. I can't even think of anything wrong woth it. It had a good subject tooo. It was amazing and I loved it!
I love this, you've chosen a really interesting topic and interpreted it really well. Well done! The only thing I would point out is the repetition of many in the last stanza, I'm not sure whether you meant to do this or not but I'm not one hundred percent sure it works, but that's just my opinion. Other than that I think it's really good.
hey! well this is my first read in a long time and i must agree...it;s really good! you've capyured everything really well...it's short and direct...not wasting any time at all....
Good work!
Harshita:)
I totally agree I think you captured all the potential of a book in this!! I <3 it can't wait to read more
Wooooooooooo! ^_^
One of the most enjoyable poems I have read. It's sweet and simple, but very truthful, and beautiful from the beginning to the end.
The only thing I have to tell you is... there shouldn't be a dot in the title. Other than that, Ham, this is maaaaaaarvelous! xD
I hope it gets featured.
Sincerely,
Solly<3
Aww, thank you Gee! I changed the title, so now there's no dot
Featured? I would much rather your work be featured, but thank you!
Oh my gosh, this is so sweet! It made me smile, and I'm in a rubbish mood, so that in itself is a miracle

I love the imagry of the book as a ship, or wind, or house etc., it was a really nice idea very eloquently (is that spelt right?!) put. I particularly liked the third stanza because I think the simile in ther last two lines is a very powerful one, although I love bird/flight imagry in poetry anyway! The last line is very striking, and conveys the overall meaning of the poem. The whole thing flowed very nicely, and your use of punctuation was really good (it always winds me up when people mis-use punctuation in peotry).
I don't really have any criticisms. I thouroughly enjoyed reading this, and I'd like to read more of your writing in the future!
Thanks, Anna! I'll try to post up more works for you!
