Starting To Get Back Into Writing Poetry

Discussion in 'General' started by Goggalor, Jun 5, 2013.

  1. Wrote this out in about 10 minutes. Any writers here?
     
    In silent spring I did doth sleep, in ever peaceful slumber.When death from out that door did tear my heart asunder. Crying out in wretched agony :“Oh fate how cruel! “ I crowed, and through that red river then did my soul row. Never more was I to behold your face my sweet companion, the emptiness you created filling like a flooded canyon.  Where art thou? Oh winged angel so black and heartless, pray tell what I have done to deserve this. I'll wear your mark upon my bosom from here to the grave, and never forget what it meant or every smile you gave.

  2. Another short one:
     
    The Bells of War
     
     
    Where are we going?
    To fight! To fight!
    What is our greatest weapon?
    The night! The night!
    What covers the ground?
    The blood! The blood!
    What washes it away?
    The flood! The flood!
    Where does the true battle lie?
    Within ourselves! ourselves!
    Where will we go when we die?
    To hell! To hell!
    What will drown out our final breaths?
    The bells! The bells! The bells!
     
     
  3. Not a poet myself but they have a poetry thread in the artists corner!
