Graceful in his landings, although he's

Reputed to show off just a tad

You have captured my heart

Please take care of it though

Happily I go through my life with you

On my paw sits a symbol of your love

Never from you will I part

Calm, cool, controlled, but

Really quite a flirt.

You can see in his words, his is a

Pure romantic heart. Covered by a

Tough Façade. Skilled fighter, skilled talker,

Or was that just the ego, you decide.

More than he lets on, enjoys the depth he has,

And tries to see it in others.

Not known for shyness, bold and very

Confident, but in his approach cautious,

Experimenting with the reactions, before

Revealing his true form.

 

 

Most wonderful beauty, feline form

You’re the truest friend I ever found.

Naturally gifted, talented, and graceful.

‘Xtraordinarily compassionate cat.

 

 

Gifted fighter, great friend,

Rather flamboyant flyer

You can tell in his landings

Power and poise,

Hindered only by lack applause.

Open to fun

Not easily outdone.

Laughs happily Does Salinye NEED the five geld? She maxed out at ten early and delightfully.

 

I think it's wonderful when people work together, but only the poster will get the geld - and only the poster's integrity can share the credit. :)

Tall and thin warrior

Hewing through planar soldiers

Engraved with a history of scars

 

Death capers in his wake

Reaping the rich harvest of Pain

Eternal life ending

At his touch

Myriad angels falling like snow

Endless streams of blood

Running over his armor

 

* * *

 

Vagabond of the Paths

Archer and swordsman

Lord of forests

Dreamer's old apprentice

Addicted to shinies

Rue to any who disrespects the ears!

Edited to add a bonus poem:

 

Zillion brothers

All different yet same

Dreamed shards

Of a godslayer

Waning to

Nothing

For fun, a couple of Haiku-like ones... but I had to shorten one of them :P

 

 

Yearning for knowledge

Unaware of the shadows

In library writes

 

***

 

Guarding the forest

Yet aware of the Castle

Redemptio he wields

Mage-bunny of acknowledged skill

Raising his paws he chants a spell

"..."

Big carrots appear, floating around him

Unnervingly circling, twirling, and spinning

Never minding the delighted applauses

Nonchalantly he keeps the flying ballet

Yes - carrot-magic is always good fun.

Great flyer,

Really good!

Yep, maybe even...

Perfect!

Hahahaha

Only in this world of words,

Not so much in real life.

 

~-----------------------~

 

Marvelous feline

Youthful, lythe

Never fails to be

Xtraordinary in my eyes

 

~-----------------------~

 

and another cos Mynx is such a short name...

 

My shining heart

You are my life

Never doubt

Xactly how much I love thee.

 

~-----------------------~

 

Crazy wordsmith

Really I need to ask

You the one totally

Pertinant question

That is

On everyones

Mind

And I hope you'll

Not avoid answering to

Clarify for me why

Ever you chose such a

Really long name!

To answer the challenge:

 

Trio of forms masking

A brave soul.

Never blindly following, but

Understanding well.

Curious about the world,

Having doubts of her clan's beliefs,

Abandoned outdated thinking to become

New and dedicated citizen of the Pen.

 

I might come and write the prerequisite self-poem at some point. :P

Whenever there's geld to be found

You best believe he'll be around.

Very greedy, sparking schemes

Ended all with broken dreams.

Really quite the lustful type

Never telling wrong from right.

 

Terrible schemer

Heretic of lost value

Endlessly plotting.

 

Like a thief in the night he'll come to sell

Insane products he'll claim are swell

Zany contraptions, pointless gimmicks

And campaigns that'll stretch their limits.

Rarely do his products work

Don't buy them from him, he's a jerk.

 

Tenacious in his ways

He lacks any sense of morals.

Advancing plans throughout his days

Trying to avoid quarrels.

 

Tongue thin and forked

Responds with sleazy hisses

Intrigued by hitting the bullseye

Enticed despite his misses.

Dares ever more to try and try again

 

To gain geld and affection when

Others are rained with kisses.

 

Sly might describe his ways as well

Tenacious and corrupt as Hell

Ever thoughtful of himself

And never casting any spells

Lest showing off for geld.

 

You can scowl and turn your head

Or silence him and claim he's dead.

Under your curse he'll carry on

Respects few words for long.

 

Gross and evil are his tastes

Even enjoys toxic waste

Lessens every Office space

Doesn't recycle, builds up waste.

 

Born a small schemer

Under an Almost Dragon

To rise to "loser."

 

Forever indebted to those around him

And never able to pay them back

Instead he attempts to astound them

Lends projects, poems, freestyle raps

Ever hopeful they'll accept him

Doubtful as he sets a trap.

 

Many consider lizards heartless

Insatiable in selfish greed

Secretly plotting behind backs

Even feeding off of needs

Really, lizards ain't that bad

And aren't only evil seeds

But Wyvern hides it pretty well

Losing all to plotting speed

Yet coming in the greatest time of need.

Wow, Wyvern! *claps enthusiastically*

And some more, for fun... using shortened names... :)



Old powerful king
Zealous of the Pen, his ward
Yarns tales of wonder

***
Terror comes with him
A vampire searching his foe
Mortals flee in fear

***
Wandering in dreams,
Yearns for success in his schemes.
Visions of riches.

thought I would try my hand at this <sheepish grin> though I know I'm not even close to some of the ones here. you guys are awsome

Many don't know

If only they did

Not one word but many

Inside she has hid.

Many her poems

On paper unwritten

Now lost as

Dust

On the winds of

Time.

A bit late for Carnival... but I've been working on this one for some time, it would be a shame not posting :)

 

**

 

Listening to tales

Always with a smile,

Dedicated and easy-going

Yet strict when required.

 

Cafe-owner and magess,

Elven blood mixed to human's,

Laughter she nurtures

Expertly chasing off

Sadness and gloom.

 

Crises she deals with

Rarely rising her voice

Unless her anger is awaken:

Storming then her words come.

A lover of cats,

Deftly manages her staff

Energetically and full of ideas

Running the Manor of Tongues.

I know this thread is old, but I got a wild hair!

 

Z is a hard letter to start a poem with

And a person like Zadown is hard to sum up!

Definitely a unique and wonderful person

Often bringing smiles to others when needed

While keeping his thoughts carefully guarded

No one knows him, unless he wishes them to.

 

(The next is AKA Tamaranis)

 

Truly a bastard, no feeling within

His heart. Days of emotion

Ended when the paladin died.

 

Truth be told, I can’t help but

Attempt a belief that deep inside

Many layers down, that good man,

Neglected, but ever in slumber is

Entwined within your soul

Destined to awaken once again.
