The 'link' was the first thing I noticed! :D Very cool!
@ JB - you're only in grade 8?! :O I'm extra impressed! There's no way I could have written poems like that at that age haha.
I love everyone's poems! ^_^
I am now going to be a genius and ask what grade 8 is.
13-14?
That's what wikipedia tells me. :D
Hi five bruh.
-
Do you want an amusing picture of me? Haha I have the craziest friends. :)
-
Maybe the Swan Princess? I'm going to keep thinking about this today. Now you've my brain working. :-)
Edit: Okay just read your last post. I don't think The Swan Princess would work for that. lol
no any works I promise!
Pretty or not. :P
Thank guys! *goes off and does research*
-
Naw, it's a production that we're doing, which is casting a magical bird as the main characters. Thought I'd see what could research to understand the role better!
Even a short bit that has birds, or flying thing that are partially human? *hopeful face*
I know in Van Helsing there were pretty vampire bride things that turned into creepy little flying creatures. That counts, too! I'll attach the images in a spoiler below, please don't click if you're easily freaked out!

Hey guys!
I was wondering if any of you knew any movies that featured people as birds! Movies, musicals, dances, anything!
Besides "Swan lake" and "black swan", any ideas?
Thanks!

Your poems flows so beautifully...I'm amazed. I like how you guys all have different styles, yet they all evoke a lot of emotion. I have a question, though. Do you guys use a specific structure or style, or do you write it purely from inspiration without much planning?
I write a bit of poetry, but I don't have much skill in it yet, so I think I will wait on posting it.
I have terrible poetry skills WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER. :D
I write without planning, but honestly, really good poems can't just "flow from inspiration", unless your inspiration is previously coupled with lots of experience in iambic and structure. I don't like planning though, so that's why they're terrible. :P At most, I write it, then go back a few week later and see how I can better the flow and/or structure.
I spend time on mine, but I don't really mind either. :D
JB I LIEK YOUR STYLE (returning favour of very failed crit hahaha)

SUMMER
By Sweetdang
Unfold your ears and listen
Open your eyes and see
The patter of feet; the flutter of wings
Her dance, yet you're blinded to she.
She sends you grassy kisses
Roses by midnight blue
The grace from the tips of her leafy toes
Winter's Love frost to woo.
Lines of joy and sorrow
Etched on the willow tree
Glittering sparkles upon rippled shell
Displayed for all to see.
A cluster of Heather's petals
A pledge of her life with you
Sunshine piercing Morning's mist
The baby ducklings, too.
Drooping lids of a tired cat
Dandelions floating away
On the wind into the clouds
On a lazy summer's day.

CRAZY busy sigh. It's like a sudden rush of life catching up with me! And secs threes are robbed of 2 (out of 4) weeks of holidays, for "enrichment and studies".

Hi so quick update that draik is going to have to wait for the holidays. :(

KNOCKING ON THE DOOR
By Sweetdang
Footsteps knock on the worn-out path
The road more-traveled
Mistakes more made
A sliver of sin follows
Flickering its forked tongue.
It slithers along the long grass bordering the route
And as it passes
The long, brown, dead stalks stand petrified
And then crumble to dust
Touched with poison.
It hangs, also
On the ankles of the man
Shadowing, shadowing,
In literal sense
And mimicking movement,
Learning from the damned.
Sometimes it moves out,
As if to strike at the heel with its poisoned fangs
But then it retreats
Because the man will end up in the fire
With or without its help.
Why waste the effort?
The lines across the page are going nowhere
Merely a copy of the story of pierced hands
Forever etched on the bloodied back
With skin torn and hanging in shreds
Throwing a message at the world.
But no one listens.
Footsteps still travel down the road
That ends in a consumption of fire
Step by step
Inch by inch
Dragging against the road
And knocking the path
That is the Door.
The sounds echos through Hell.
-
*impressed whistle*
That was pretty awesome.
Forget that, it was amazing! I really could actually "see" it, the only line that was a little odd to me was the one bout his eyes. Cool line, but not an accurate image conjured in my head! :P
But fantastic. Simply fantastic.

I was at 200,000, after taking 600,000 out to spend on books. :P

Hello I liked that! And the simply-sad kind of shadow it cast, plus the fact it went back in a full circle. Very nice. :) I do take quibbles with the fact that it's a rhyming poem, though, because if it rhymes - it ALLLLLL Rhymes. as such I take up problem with this line: "Once we had commenced dating", if you would fit a "dated" in there if would flow more nicely. Also, the rhyming went a little off at times, and I wouldn't be so particular about this (because I'm not very skilled at utilizing the iambic pentameter myself)
if it didn't rhyme. Again, I just have a thing with rhymes - if you want them, then they better be PURRRRFECT.
Sorry haha just me. :-)
But that's all the issue i take up with that, other than that it was liked a story being played out! Good job! :D
Here's one that's rather dark:
Fine
by Sweetdang
You came to me
You knocked me down
Shoved my face
Straight to the ground.
I stood up
Brushed myself off
I said
"Fine."
I came to you
Stabbed you in the heart
Left you in a pool
Of your own blood
You couldn't say
Anything
At all.
hurhurhur don't ask.
Okay yes both of what I've posted so far aren't "proper" attempts at writing, so when I post one, would you prefer a dark one or happy one? Mine are mostly dark.

I don't see how you still had energy to get online yesterday! :-(
-
Wow you poet person.
I think i wrote one on something like that once. Wait lemme lemme find it -
Found it. It's a short, very minimalist one. Written a year or two ago. Kudos to you if you link up the beginning and that end!
Cycle
Boxing day
Marks my eighth birthday
Sun’s not yet lit
I wake up
And trudge across the wooden floor planks
Widely spread
So I can see yellow grass
Three feet beneath
My toes.
Skin–thin
Loin cloth
Tied firmly in place,
Back to the site
To repeat the cycle
Routine
And work
Day after day
Just like I did
Yesterday.
