The Fading of Lothlorien

Turn, my child
look and see
for years shall pass
and all of this
shall be but memory.

Breathe deep the air,
listen for the brook.
If thou turn’st away
All shall leave
before thou can’st take another look.

Behold the wondrous trees
and hear the singing of the wren
All shall fadewhen Altariel
leaves her lofty fen.

I'mnot too good at poetry, and I'm not sure if this is what you were looking for. (It has to do with LotR) If not, tell me and I'll help judge instead ^_^

Well... this was a poem I made a long time ago, for a contest on another site... I really like it

Blissful Repose

She lies there peacefully
her sapphire eyes hidden from sight
the sun shines down distractingly
for its a long wait for night

Her golden hair streams around the perfect head
rosy lips don't emit her hidden smile
she lies on ground she was never meant to tread
down there she could stay for quite awhile

Milky feathers soft as a cloud
they fold around her body protectively
the trees create an extra shroud
they leave a cylinder like a forest chimney

Many watch over during her slumber
Nymphs and Fairies watch silently
in their sight she shines like a fiery ember
as she lies there peacefully

Here's the picture I wrote the poem for... If you want. I think it's beautiful!

Here's my entrie. It's not very serious or mysterious. I wanted something more easy going this time:

Tales

There are tales of day and tales of night,
Tales of love and tales of fright.

Tales of day like gurgling streams,
Colorful buds and grasses of green;
Bright blue skies and summery dreams.
Each a cheerful golden ray, from Daystars fiery lay.

Tales of night like velvet blue,
Purely white and silvery moon;
Starlight dancing upon the shore, pleasant dreams to thee bore.
Each a precious little star, and star, a glittering gem.

Tales of love like gentle doves
Blossoming hearts and whispered words;
Bitter-sweet; fair and true,
Each a silken petal, upon loves great rose.

Tales of fright like looming shadows,
Darkened rooms and heavy sorrows;
Crawling creatures, beating hearts; murky lakes and fitful starts,
Each a darkened menacing cape, and cape, a poisonous drop.

Each alike and each unique
Be stilling wonders, chilling dreams;
Unfolding secrets to curious eyes, unraveling worlds of tremendous size,
Each; a simple and cunning thought.

Oh - Myra - I have a question on the judging. How are we going to discuss the winners? Through private messenging?

Thanks Dreia!! I love how you used word's like thou, turn'st, can'st and wren, i've never been able to write like that!! I love your poem! I'm not very good at writing poems that don't rhyme... hehe

Arien Elensar, I love your first two lines, that's totally awesome. And then you go and write a stanza for each. I love it! You also didn't rhyme words, I can never get my poems to do that... they naturally rhyme.. hehe

Good Luck both of you!!
