Silverwind

To my Silver dragon,
Of which I do hold dear,
I clutch on all our memories
and wish that you were here.

Now, as I step and stumble
down a long and twisted road,
I often stop and wonder on
How I do alone.

I wish your light was with me
but it seems to be so faint,
that on my way I stumble
and I wonder for your taint.

So, though I know for certain
that your not my beck-and-call,
I wish for one apearence from
The dragon who loves all.

Hey there Dawnpath!

So, I am a big fan of fantasy and a huuuge fan of dragons. Dragons are awesome! For that I highly approve of this poem right from the start.

On a more serious note though I love the duo-dimension of this. I could sit and pick it apart for hours, depending on whether I think of the dragon as a parent, a friend, a teacher. It can be interpreted in so many different ways and that is the kind of poem I really like.

The line 'I wonder for your taint' is odd. The rhyme here seems very forced, like you've just tried to find anything that worked and stuffed it in. I find if you're struggling for a rhyme it's always best to try two or three posibilities.

I really wish you'd taken this further. Longer lines, more stanzas, and most definately more imagery, maybe even break out of the rhyme scheme all together. All of the emotion is there and often that's the hardest part to write into a poem, so great work on that! Hold on to that emotion. Just be that bit braver and take it further than you have already.

Overall, great work! Keep it up.

I'm a little rusty, but here is my poetry. I wrote it just now and I haven't editted it. To say tha my dragon doesn't exist is a flat out lie. Silverdragon is a person that, while I have never met, I hold very dear. I met her off the sight, on a place called the Warrior Cat Forums, where she is known as Silverwind. However, I haven't seen head, tail, claw, foot, scale, fur, or scruff of her in over two months. I miss her very much.

Awwwwwww! I'm sorry I haven't been around much Dawneh! I've missed you a lot too... I've learned a lot over this school year, and I've been really busy. But now that it's summer again I hope to reconnect and create memories with you again! You're so sweet Dawneh!! Thank you so much! ^^

:blush: Thanks Silleh ^^
