    I really love how this poem had a message while still being a poem. I absolutely love how the words flowed to form this fragile and delicate imagery of these paper wings. But after I finished the last line I couldn’t feel sorry for this girl. She had the strength to stand up so instead of pity I felt awe. That was another thing that was great about this piece; while most of the poem expressed her fragility, it wasn’t until the last few lines that showed her strength. That in itself was like a nice surprise…I don’t know if this was your goal but I liked it either way. Great job!!

    I also love the layout and the picture…I like simplicity, and this layout is just right.
    Again, great job and thanks for sharing!!!

    This seems almost as much a drabble as a poem to me. I like the story it tells and its message. In terms of the actual words/writing, I think your opening lines and you closing lines are the strongest and are definitely my favorite part of the piece.
