Kuyuti Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 I like to write Poems and what Lyrics when I get into the Mood yet I noticed there isn't much Poetry on here and who knows Maybe we could even have a monthly Competition or something. Just to favor the other Artists out there ^^
SweetSerenity Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 I think this should be moved to the suggestions area. However, I agree. I think there should be a poetry contest with prizes just as there is one for signatures. The problem is getting somebody to run it. I'm not as active as I should be which means I don't have enough coupons to give for prizes. :( I would like to see this happen though. :D
Lucius Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 Depends on the quantity of poets in the server. I mean, I'd join but my poems bite. Here's an example. http://forum.forsaken-ro.net/index.php?showtopic=9674
Lacey Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 Poetry Is an Great Idea, I love writing and I would even post some of mine. :thumbsup_anim: This Man From a Far away Land A Man One day is reminded of a Place where smiles cought on everyone's face He packs to journey in search for new He takes his friends Not one but two The man arives and to his surprise the land once saw brought tears to his eyes This Land now torn by greed and power the town even makes passers Cower Houses are dingy Lifes are dust The town sword now covered in rust as the man stood he looked at his feet there lie a women crawling the street he helps her up and dusts her atire she informs the man of the battle of fire how the town is segregated in half and if you have no gold you do the math They own it all the land the crop She begs the man to make it stop as she dies in his arms he sheds a single tear he whispers to her softly not to fear He lays her back down on the road He runs to the sword and grabs a hold He pulls it up from its rusty slumber He vowes for War to even the numbers thus he did without thinking twice anything to make this place back pretty and nice He fought and gave it all of his Go and turned the place to a Better Forsaken RO.
Lacey Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 TY TY And Lucius Your Poem really isnt that bad, I could give you pointers to help make you feel like you write em better, But poetry is art and inspiration So its not always the words but meaning or the courage to even stand and speak it, they even say poetry doesnt even have to rhyme but me Im not one of thoughs nuts with a steel drum snap my fingures "Can you dig" lol I believe more people like poetry that rhyme and they would probably enjoy mine more if it was something they can relate to. But yea that Pixie one wasn't bad at all :laughingsmiley:
Lucius Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 I hate writing poems. I'm no poet. I'm just trying to help this discussion by proving a point, that we need a good quantity of poets in order to make a contest, an activity however would be reasonable.
Terroryst Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 I would try to conjure something but I'm doing some homework on The Crucible.
Amitsu Posted January 22, 2009 Report Posted January 22, 2009 mine are emo poems q.q don't judge me only wrote them in like 8th grade and never wrote them again. lol
SweetSerenity Posted January 31, 2009 Report Posted January 31, 2009 Um..didn't we already have a post about Poetry and stuff in the older version of the forums? I wonder what happened to it. It's so old though. I'm afraid to revive it. >: LOL. I'll make another in a bit. I still want to see a poetry contest go on. :(
xBiscuit Posted February 1, 2009 Report Posted February 1, 2009 dude. i'd love this. poetry contest should be like signature contest.
