Great job Milly! You have some really good metaphors in there; I especially like 'brushed cotton', 'honey', and 'a young tree'. :)

As far as critiquing it, I'm afraid I'm not much help. It's been forever since I've worked on an essence map, so I'm a little rusty when it comes to them. :P

Thanks, PotK! :D Now that I've actually done an essence map, I'm wondering why I didn't make one sooner. They're so much fun! :dieshappy:
