The reason I say this is because both pieces aren't about love. They both beat with the pulse of something that only lovers can descibe, something more than love, higher than desire. That undefinible "it," the thing we all search for. When I read "INTRO LETTERS" I could feel the reflection of the sun that is the love the author exhudes. In colors I found myself yearning for the colors I only wish surrounded me. For those reasons, and because its something you can just feel when you read both of the pieces, I feel you have found your winner(s). <br /><br />Sincerely (and thank you),<br /><br />Colin Lawrence<br />Eugene, ORAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8564758745279452343.post-25147075882252037732010-04-05T22:38:52.772-07:002010-04-05T22:38:52.772-07:00I like the ones written by Z and X.

It is easily relatable while also sowing in a certain eloquence of words. The author also blends the informal as well as the formal quite wonderously. <br /><br />The second provides the reader with an incredible amount of visual-spatial mental imagery. In addition, the use of metaphor is very impressive.<br /><br />Love is always the hardest topic to fit into words that make sense to our readers, and more importantly, ourselves. But I believe that these two authors have come close to accomplishing what we all wish to achieve in our romantic pieces.Ikusa Kuchikihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05526215948352961989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8564758745279452343.post-92195022078221792802010-04-05T22:14:08.784-07:002010-04-05T22:14:08.784-07:00Colors was my favorite.
