Being a poet and writer, I figured I may as well set up a thread to post my works. I shall post them here as they are completed, and I try (and usually fail) to post them on a regular basis. As it were, I have a poem coming up for Valentine's Day. I'll go ahead and post all my completed works here, and update this post once I finish more. (or just start a new post for each one, depending on what you say) Requests are ALWAYS accepted.
I woke up this morning, ‘twas strange I did not see My lovely mate, my Kathrin, sleeping beside me I lay there for a moment, in order to find my fate Would I go off and adventure, or be content to wait? Quickly I decided, in fact, immediately That I would leave a letter, just for her to see. I sat down to write it, and quickly did I find, That even in my wisdom, I had an empty mind I was faced with quite a problem, O, what should I do? I knew not what to write for her, I had not a clue. I thought of something else, I would get her a gift. The very prospect of it gave my soul a lift. I leapt out of bed, and opened up my bags I made some wondrous clothing Out of simple rags. I dashed out through the doorway And out into the town But I could not make a purchase Except a simple gown I then started homewards Shame written on my face When I saw something shining, at my table-place I saw beautiful script, flowing on the page I felt my sadness mounting, replacing my rage I read Kathrin’s letter, asking me to climb the stairs I followed my instructions, to the very hair. I opened the door, and peered inside the room I saw Kathrin smiling, like a devil who signed my doom. No sooner had I noticed, when she leapt onto me Like a cat onto a mouse, where mice know they cannot flee. I wrapped her in my wings as we both began to purr We snuggled with each other, and groomed each other’s fur With tears in my eyes, I told her of my woes That the gift that I brought could not compare to those That she had given me But she simply smiled, and told me ` In tones both soft and fine That I was hers forever, and she was always mine… On this mirthful, blissful day.. The Day of Saint Valentine. Bit O' happiness for ya. Happy Valentine's day.
