 Nurvingiel 2004-09-25 . chapter 1These haiku's are great! I especially liked Boromir's and Aragorn's. Gandalf's was really funny! (Wears a pointy hat is a humorous line, even though it's true.)
Regardless of what side you're on in the Hair Debate, Legolas would be blond, not blonde, because he's a dude.
I first discovered your work by reading the hilarious MST of "Taken Far Too Literally". I'm glad this happened because you write very well. I think you'll be a successful actual author. You can realize your dream! (I am also an aspiring actual author.)
Cheerio! Nurv |
 twin03 2004-01-09 . chapter 2Nice! I don't usually read poetry, but I'm glad I gave this a try. |
 Oort 2003-09-22 . chapter 2These are pretty good, especially the villians. I love Saurons. |
 Flame Tigress 2003-08-21 . chapter 1Just my two cents' worth: Legolas is blond. He's a Telerin Elf, and they've all got pale, kind of silver-blond hair -- not to be confused with the golden hair of the Vanyar. If someone can quote a passage of LotR that says he's brunette, I'll believe it, but not until.
Otherwise -- nice haikus! |
 Chanra 2003-05-25 . chapter 2Brilliant. I've never liked poetry, but your fanfic makes me change my mind! |
 TigerLily713 2003-05-20 . chapter 1Oh...I like it. Nice job. Lily |

2 right bout Pippin! |
 PuterPatty 2003-05-05 . chapter 2OOh! I like, I like very much! Haikus are great fun and you've really managed to capture those key characterizations using only 17 syllables. Bravo!
Now how about some for the Races of Middle-earth, or other characters--Elrond, Glorfindel, Galadriel, Faramir, Eomer, Eowyn, Haldir, Treebeard, Celeborn, Tom Bombadil, Halbarad, Imrahil, Elladan, Elrohir, Ghan-buri-Ghan...So many to choose from! ::puppy dog eyes:: Please? |
 Sleepy Jean 2003-05-05 . chapter 2I'm not even going to try to be eloquent, so I'll just say this: I loved 'em all! :D |
 Nodalec 2003-04-29 . chapter 1Yay! Fun haikus! Kudos to poetry! These were really good. ^.^ I don't think I could write a haiku if my life depended on it. I especially liked Gandalf's haiku. Go pointy hats! |
 Drew Marigold 2003-04-29 . chapter 1*stands and applauds* Very nicely done! I always stand in awe of people who can produce decent poetry. I can't. You can. Wonderfully, in fact!
I just have one _minor, teeny, tiny_ nitpick (call it CC if we want to sound nicer):
"I thought he'd be blonde"... should be "blond."
This stems back from French: girls are blonde, guys are blond - no 'e'. (Sorry, that's just the language teacher coming out in me. It won't happen again. *thunks Language Teacher Drew over the head with something very heavy* *Language Teacher Drew crumples to the floor*)
*goes back to being awed* Keep it up! I look forward to reading your 'obscure characters' series. |
 sunsong 2003-04-29 . chapter 1 I wish I could write like this! I'm much better with flames than praise, but trust me, these are awesome. |
