Amazing! You're very talented.

The Songs of Valinor are lovely indeed. You definitely deserved the Mithril Award for the Song of Firiel. I'm afraid I can't comment beyond that. You've stolen my words from me. ^^

Whoops, guess I was wrong. Do I get some points for the right family?

The poetry in general is enjoyable, but nothing really jumps out at me.

I guess Galadriel's POV

Oops, Finrod's POV, not Thingol's. Though it could possibly have been. Or maybe it's just me.

Thingol's perspective, I think, though I'm not certain. Lovely poetry, really touching.

Finrod, was it? Yes, it's all so obvious now... what with the gems and all.
(Feeling stupid. -_-")
I guess having read the Silmarillion three years ago, I didn't absorb much.
Keep experimenting with meter--it's definitely working for you.

O, bonus for a guess...
Finrod? That's the best I can come up with.
Ah, well, I can't just guess, and not review! Very poignant. I can't write poetry to save my life, so I admire people who can pull it off! Nice!

Simply wonderful and more than deserves the award ^^ It flows beautifully. I love the fact her name means "mortal woman" too, as that makes the poem all the more heart-wrenching. Absolutely gorgeous *appaluse all round*

Poor Finrod! Poor Amarie! How could he just leave her!! You write wonderful poems, they all seem to be about people wishing to be in Valinor, they just don't realise how lucky they are to be in that world at all, I'll swap!!

I am impressed...very impressed...especially the one about Finrod and Amarie.

I like the Hymn to Elbereth best. Have you ever experimented with free verse?

Beautiful again, but I think you don't really need the 'do' in the poem where you have put it in, for me the pieces in your poems such as 'we 'do' cry' or 'souls 'do' long' throws off the rhythm of the poem.

In my opinion I think the lines would read better without 'do' in there: e.g 'Our souls long for farthest west' or 'A song of parting we cry', each word modifies the next and sets the mood and image for the line, while 'do' tends to break the images apart and stop the flow from one word to the next.

Other than that your poems were truely beautifully written!

Well done!

Hmm for me it could be any of three couples, either Finrod and Amarie, Turgon and Elenwe and Elrond and Celebrian, though I think more emphasis would be on the forst two.

A beautiful poem!

Oh, wow, Meir, these are gorgeous! They sound to me like real Elven poetry, not just random stuff made up by someone without much talent. (*Ahem* Legolusters at OFUM at midnight, etc.)

And (go me!) I figured out that the second one might be Felagund before you said so in the third poem.

I will keep my eye on this for future updates, and maybe put a link to it on my page, if you don't mind. 'Tis gorgeous!
