"Poetry corner"

The idea behind this place is that instead of starting your own thread with one poem they can all go in here instead.
Here is then, a place for your all your word's of beauty, anger, love, disappointment and anything else you care to add.

Walk My Way

It was seven year’s and a lifetime away
Since I met you on that autumn day
A little girl with nowhere and no-one
But when you smiled you shined like the sun
You lit up my life the second I saw you
Walk my way

It was a year later I saw you again
One year later but it felt like ten
Still a young girl but not on your own
And I envied the man that was taking you home
And as I was walking home how I longed for you
Walk my way

Three years later I saw you again
Less than enamoured by the attention of men
A young woman at odds with the world
A world away from that smiling young girl
And it was nice to see you smile when I asked you to
Walk my way

It’s been seven years since you walked my way
And I’ve loved you more each and every day
No longer a girl with nowhere and no-one
And when you smile you still shine like the sun
And now I’m standing in church waiting for you to
Walk my way

Care to tell us what you intend to do?

I've got a feeling this place is starting to die again, i'm stuck for anything to write and everyone else is just talking in here, i think i'm going to have to do something i was never intending on doing.

Not always fluent, not always perfectly tuned, but still great that piece was Icaruss. I like much, and this small comment seems nothing in comparison to the vast piece you have posted for us. T'was all good stuff.

An ode to the Two Towers

The story goes on
In the land of Middle Earth
About the fight of Iluvatar's second son
In hope of an age of mirth
The ring went to the east
The Fellowship was broken
Two hobbits were kidnapped by the beast
Of Sarumann, who were after the dark lord's token

Pippin and Merry, hobbits of kin
Escaped and entered a forest
With Grishnak in their heels within
They ran at their best
A friendly soul emerged
Treebeard, Fangorn, Treeherder
The orc in the dirt he submerged
And the hobbits he did take, the friendly treeherder

Precious, precious
Gollum, Gollum
They stole my precious
The fat, dirty hobbitses, Gollum
Smeagol was corrupted
by the ring's power
But by Frodo he was captivated
Or else with blades he would shower

Legolas, Gimli and Aragorn
Runs, runs, runs!
In hope of not to be in mourn
of the little hobbits
Éomer, rider of the mark, noble knight
had beasts slain
But if two hobbits they had seen this night
They had not, and our friends were in pain

But wait, a light breaks out
In the ancient forest of the Ents
Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli, warriors stout
Gandalf the wizard has returned, no more need for laments!
Ride to Edoras, Meduseld
High seat of Theóden King
Into him Sarumanns poison has been meld
Of our four friends they will have nothing.

Over the dead marches, the path of the hobbits lie
With Smeagol leading the way
For the creature have sworn on the ring and will not lie
They have to trust him, or at least try, they may
Nazguls are coming
Hide hide hide
From the gaze of death homing
In on the three travellers inside

Grima, a wormtounge
Sarumanns poison was no more
The magic have been unsung
By a sight for an eye so soare
Gandalf the Grey is now
Gandalf the White
Through evil he will plough
To Sarumann, in all his might

To Helms Deep
The path goes
Wargs are hunting the sheep
They are no mere deadly foes
Aragorn, over the edge you go
Arwen, watch over him
In to the crevasse so low
Wounded as he may be, let us only hope he can swim

The Black gate is open
To the men of the south
He is gathering men, for his enemy is broken
The hobbits are venturing into the lions mouth
"Safer way, there is, my precious!
Go not through the black gate!
He will get you, precious!
No one is safe from they're fate!"

Aragorn is safe!
To Helm's Deep he rides
To war and strife
Straight into soiled and pure blood he dives
The rain, it pours
The Uruk-Hai are roaring
"Quickly, shut the doors!"
No one can hear the Ents distant calling

Sarumann has burned up the forest
Treebeard is fiery mad
Pippin and Merry does their best
To help the Ents who are sad
Plant meets stone
In a powerful clash
Sarumann is to the ents rage shown
Isengard they smash

Faramir, son of Gondor
Have Frodo and Sam
He will not let them go, the son of Gondor
For then the wolf will get his lamb
Osgilagath, Helms Deep and Isengard
Three mighty wars
Truly stories remembered by every bard
And by elves among the stars

Victory calls
Within Helms Deep
The orcs falls
Good have once again taken the keep
The battle might be over
May not all hope be gone
The east the shadow still cover
The Battle for Middle-Earth have just begun

Hobbits escape
To Mordor they go
To their fates that will shape
This will make their friendship grow
An evil plot has begun
By Gollum, arisen once again
To a spider with a web greatly spun
Will it ever end, this great pain?

Oh, and my poetry skills are...interesting. Although I am a published poet.

I'm not making an issue.
I was just chatting.

So don't overreact at me, ok?

I think it's a shame that the only time you two have posted in here was to make a issue out of something that never was, i'd like to see if you could create something for this place.
