Raelen Posted April 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 Really? I was under the impression that it was 5' date=' 7, 3. Oh well, good thing I added the extra precaution. We should do sonnets next. :twisted:[/quote'] That would be a tad unfair. =P (Although I could probably beat you...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supreme Gamesmaster Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 what do you mean title?is my haiku good?Correction: your old title failed and was wrong. My title tells the date on the FE calendar of epic.Really? I was under the impression that it was 5' date=' 7, 3. Oh well, good thing I added the extra precaution. We should do sonnets next. :twisted:[/quote'] That would be a tad unfair. =P (Although I could probably beat you...)Well, yes.what's a sonnet?An incredibly strict form of poem written in fourteen lines of ten syllables apiece, in iambic pentameter, with an ABABCDCDEFEFGG rhyme scheme. Just realized I keep forgetting the third set. :( :( :( :( :( So, you see why it was tricky for me to switch to dactylic decameter (that's the most accurate name I can think of) for the most recent poem.

Supreme Gamesmaster Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 [spoiler=A showoff sonnet, based on a Soul Calibur fic I read once]Thy most resplendent gown adorns thy frameAs I look on, I cannot help but stareMy life from now I know won't be the sameBut now I wonder: do I really care?For what did old heroes their fights endureTheir trials conquer, leaving in the dustThan this, true love, so maddeningly pureIt keeps its justice when it's merged with lust.'Tis thus why I now lift my sword againAnd stare my ancient demons in their eyesYou're all alive I know I must defendThis night, you must endure through all their lies.Transcending history and all the worldThe tale of swords and souls is still retold.

Toxic-skull Posted April 11, 2009 Report Share Posted April 11, 2009 [align=center]heres another poem ^_^[spoiler=“Blackened Heart”]“Blackened Heart”A heart that is now merging with darkness,A heart that can’t take anymore lies and gossip,A heart that only survives on hatred and anger,A heart that is know being consumed with so much darkness that it can’t see the light anymore,A heart that is almost black as the void itself,Though the heart still worries for it’s friends,And when it is near it’s friends the darkness turns to light,A heart that can be whole again from just a loving hug, heart that is separated from love becomes blackened once more…[/align] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supreme Gamesmaster Posted April 11, 2009 Report Share Posted April 11, 2009 What you call a poem that doesnt always rhyme but comes straight from the heart?Blank verse.

I believe he is trying to say that its good because it comes from your heart. I like it and i thought it was well done and thought out. Oh and the above rant about spelling and grammar is about me. lol! P.S: it's not that i dislike grammar or spelling mistakes(I make em too!). It's that refusing to correct such mistakes is disrespectful to the poem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musical meter defines poetry, not emotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
