Phantom Posted January 5, 2003 Share Posted January 5, 2003 [color=firebrick]Two souls of gods, two souls to start, To waft through clouds, to keep the stars, One of life, and one of death, One of white, and one of black, Two souls will tell the tales of many, Two souls enchant the world in a game of chess, One of love, and one of hate, One of freedom, and one of null enchantment, The souls werith split down the center, And a new life unfurls itself within? the chambers of Avalon, A child? Indeed he is?[/color] [color=sienna][i][size=1]A premonition? One would say? Dont mistake the words, for they mean one in their own, an assissin? No, well maybe.[/i][/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talon Posted January 5, 2003 Share Posted January 5, 2003 [color=teal]Finely done, Mike, but shall I recite my own verse of The Homeland? [i]A bed of black, a bed of white, To all who see, a heavenly sight. Brother and sister, inside, do sleep, Together, the clouds and stars to keep. Time, it has passed, and teachings, they fade. The sleeper in black has fallen awake. Sister does follow, to find what she lost. To return with her brother, no matter the cost. Too late, to mortals they have become attached. Though the brother, a mistake has made and a heart has been scratched. The Council curses the Cloudrunner, exhiles him to die. But what hurts worse, his sister fails to cry. A blade, it does raise, but against her and not him. Nobly, he gives his own freedom for her free-made whims. Brother has fallen, exhiled in Hell. His sister frolicks free, ringing love's bell. The brother gave his own heart and soul, For a sister who killed him, made his heart a hole. He regrets the choice he finally made, And Starkeeper, the blade against him, she left unstayed. Cloud's wishes remain nly for his sister to forgive, For his wrongs to be righted so that he might again live. Now, however, he realizes that she'll never come to, With Star's name on his lips, a blade sends him to where he'll find no rescue... Hell.[/i][/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Posted January 5, 2003 Author Share Posted January 5, 2003 All good and well but do not flip the 'story' backwards... Immortal tales are good if told straight. Adieu Cloudrunner the black.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDarkOtaku Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 A poem is trully good when the poet sees things in a perspective unique to his/herself and his/herself only. This is a perfect example. I trully enjoyed the poem. Keep Writing! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
