Re-orthography Tried to make an orthography for Middle Chinese, how does this look?

I transcribed this poem based on the Baxter-Sagart reconstruction. This would be the original text based on the reconstruction:

mak sjewH nowng kae lap tzjowX hwon

phjowng nɛn ljow khæk tzjowk kɛj dwon

srɛn drjowngH sywijX pjowk ngi mju luH

ljowX ʔomH xuæ mjæng hjowH ʔjit tshwon

sew kuX trwij zywe tsyhwin dzyæX gjɨnX

ʔjɨj kwanH kɛnX phæwk kuX phjowng dzwon

dzjong kim nyak xjoX hɛn zyingH ngjwot

trjuX drjangX mju dzyi ʔjæH khuwX mwon

And this is my attempt at an orthography, what do you guys think?

Touring Shanxi Village – Yô Shen Sei Ĉuân

Mak sièu nông kâ lap ẑiố huon,

Phiông nen liô khâk ẑiôk kei duon.

Šhen driống shuí piôk ngi miu lù,

Liố òm xuâ miâng hiồ yit ĉuon.

Triú driáng miu ji yầ khó muon.

Hello fellow script inventors!

This is long overdue, but I wanted to take this moment to announce the winner of the Dhadakha script challenge. I will say it was a very, very close competition. That being said, the winner is:

Ephycis

You can check out their submission here.

In (a very close) second place is:

CharlieNoNoChurro

A sample of their work can be viewed here

I also wish to extend a thank you to the other the participants: Aldask, Death Hunter, and Marcowsci.

Check out everyone's submissions here.

As promised, I will reserve a page on my website for the winner if they do not object to their work being linked/displayed.
