Okay, this is a discussion thread for poets.
Simple enough.

Topics for today/days until I decide to change it

1.) Always feel free to post poetry.
2.) Critique/give your opinions on someone's poetry, please.

You may post your poetry for freindly critiquing, or just chat about it.
Mmk?
Please don't post in here unless you're talking about poetry.

THIS IS ILLY'S 666th POST!

Illy's latest poem:


Reminisence

Sweetly drawn
Bitter held
Calling on the past
Haunting and forboding
A subtleness they cast

Cast upon
Dreams in dreams
Longing for a future
Passion abound endlessly
Yet a soul always tortured

Sing to me
Of a time
Long past and forgotten
Caress my heart as it shakes
Quavering in fear

Dote upon
This angry life
Filled with hopes and dreams
Crushed forever, naught to return
Lest she comes to rescue me


Usually, I use a prefered rhyme scheme.
Commonly, it's ABCB in four-lined stanzas.
In 5-lined, I'll typically use ABCDC.

Any comments on the poem or use of rhyming?
This one I didn't rhyme, which was purely an accident, but I liked how it turned out.

~Illy

Since no one's talking...
My prefered genre of poetry is most likely tragic romance.

Anyone enjoy this?
Different style maybe?
ANY POETS IN THE KOIJI?!
DDD:

Sumimasen.
Excuse my amature perspective of poetry.

Genre....
Humor.
Not very descriptive, but I like humorous poems.
Tickles me pink.
xD

And I like limricks.
The structure is nice.

I don't write in a certain structure.
Usually 4-6 stanzas, each either 4 or 5 lines.
Sometimes rhyming, sometimes not.

And I like tragic romance myself.
Or just mushy poetry.

I write in the structures our teachers assign to us.

I can't really say much else about poetry.

1.) Prefered rhyme scheme, if any.
2.) Genre of poetry
3.) Reflections of your poetry.


1.) I generally go with ABAB as well in most of my poems. Or ABCB, whichever seems to fit the best.
2.) I do personal poetry, about what's in my head at the time. Most of it turns out depressing, because I have parents from Hell. XP
3.) It basically shows what I'm feeling at the time. Take this, for example:
Quote:
High Expectations

My pretty little bird must gleam,
My prize for all to see;
My pretty bird must be a jewel
To fill my guests with glee.

My pretty bird must sing a tune
So sweet and crystal clear!
My pretty bird must be a jewel
For many ears to hear.

My pretty bird must show and tell,
Complacent to my will;
My pretty bird must be a jewel
'Til my friends get their fill.

That ugly bird has failed me,
Now silent as a mime;
That bird shall be, by lock and key,
Encaged for all of time.

This was made when I was grounded for something I should not have been grounded for. I was bored, so I wrote this. This is ABCBDECEFGCGHIHI, as you can see. (Long rhyme scheme, I know. XP) I reflected on what I was to my parents, and realized I'm just a trophy to them. So, there's my poem.

1. Hm...I'm more of the spoken word kind of guy myself, but as long as it flows naturally.
2. Anything that's sad, pretty much.
3. Hm...Come to think of it, I usually write poetry when I'm either extremely depressed or reflective on my life.

quote
Sepia

Sepia is the color that I dream,
Sepia is the color of all things past.
It brings back the fond memories,
And makes good stories from bad.

Sepia is the color that I dream,
A continuing dream through the nights past,
So let me dream again,
While the good memories still last.


Yeah, I know it's a really generalized subject.

Sisters
A spoken word
A lonely tear
Whatever it takes
For me to hear
The cry of pain
From my dear blood
A plea of help
Gone for good

What happend to
The, "I love you"'s
That bonded us so strong?
What happened to
The 'Love you too"'s
That helped us all along?

Sister, dear sister
You held my hand
Guided me through
This foreign land
Of life and lust
And anger and trust
And now we've reached a stop

But sister, dear sister,
Remember my words:
Learn from the past
Cherish the present
Make living last
For life will lead you
Far from this stop
Until you reach
The very top
And we will meet again.

Remember me always
As 'sister of mine'
When we laughed and we joked
And had a fun time
You grew away from me
Though we promised to never
To breach our promises
As sisters forever.


I wrote this after a friend of mine told me of a teary situation with her sister.
I dedicate this to her, in hopes that she and her sister will be able to one day seek solace in each other.

I have no idea if there is a pattern at all...
This is just a crappy poem I whipped up.
I was really moved by my friend's situation, though.
And thus, this was born.

Updated the topics.
Kinda vague, but we'll live.
xP

An older poem of Illy's:


Dreams

Take me from reality,
Far away from this.
A cold dark world that they have made,
Far away from bliss

Love me like no other could,
Be my everything.
Tell me that you’ll love me now,
And forever following.

I exist for you alone,
I want your happiness.
I want to live my life with you,
I’ll settle for nothing less.

A selfish man is who I am,
I want you for only me.
For you to love me as I love you,
To be mine, completely.

An unattainable fantasy,
It haunts me endlessly.
But you should know I’ll never give up,
My beautiful impossible dream.

The power of imperialism breaks Bittersweet's iron grip on the motherland!

...and insofar as poetry goes, Robert Frost is where it is at.

I need you, like the bird needs the sky.
I do, but are you to blind to see?
To see that I want you more than food, and water.
More than anything the heavens can provide.

Don't you understand I want to drink in your essence, because I swear it's like drinking life.
Please don't deny me my drink.
For without you, I would surely die.

I dunnp where this came from. >.>
It just happened on those rare occasions, I do poetry. ^^

@Meta: I loved Master and Beast.
<3

@Fuzzy: Not my style or to my liking, but it expresses our feelings well enough.
