Oh, one more question. Do you prefer the ending lines:

“Awestruck to see that in dark the lights dance”

or

“Awestruck to see that in night the lights dance”

???

Thanks everyone! @emma-flournoy @ariella-newheart @rochellaine

I think I’ve got it now. I’ll come back to this a few months from now to see if I can make any small improvements, but I think it’s generally solid. 😀

@skredder  Hopefully her hair is how you imagined it…and I wasn’t sure about her eyes so I just did brown.  🙂

And closer…

@ethryndal  Have you done mine yet?

Here’s Hannah’s post:

And now I present you: Potato Squash Pudding. (I also present you my shame and the disgrace of all my authoress dignity. 😬😂)

@catwing @rochellaine

Potatoes and Squash, a farmer’s delight
A field he grew and harvested in plenty
And without a clue to his plight!
Alas, a poor farmer’s wife, what is she to do with all this…

@skredder  I may try her today or tomorrow…maybe.  🙂

@daeus Thankee. *bows* Well, I tried incorporating small ‘good’ things and it’s been a lot let dismal lately. I think I just let Ike gnaw on dismal’ness’ for too long. XD

@sarah-anson I really like the italicized bit you said there. *nods* I agree. Thanks!

@anne-of-lothlorien  AHH those are great!

Waaaaait, did you copy mine? XD

Can someone please tag me with a topic, too?  I haven’t been tagged yet.  Just because I started the topic with a sample poem that doesn’t mean I don’t want to be tagged…

😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀

@salome01w4g I read your poem in my email and it’s great!  Hilarious story!

But…it’s not showing up here anymore. 🙁  Do you need me to copy it from my email and post it for you, or do you have it saved somewhere else?  (I’m pretty sure you have it saved somewhere else, since this is an actual piece of writing rather than a quickly-typed po…[Read more]

@daeus Sorry I didn’t get back to you sooner.  I am usually only around here in the morning and evening…so anyway…

Stanza two; “Most comely he smiled” is better, because otherwise we try to drag “and” out into two beats.  The reason for this is probably that almost all – if not al…[Read more]

@warrioroftherealm *salutes* Awesome!

@christianna-hellwig @rochellaine @emma-flournoy @that_writer_girl_99

Thanks so much for your suggestions, everyone! Here’s what I have now.

“Oh, stars that remember the firstthings forgotten
How earth and its peoples were early begotten
They looked and beheld through a pane of dark glass
The earth in a swirling, untamable mass

@rochellaine Thank you, potato-squash is my random-non-random thingie. :3
Also thank you! I can be funny. Sometimes.

@salome01w4g I think you can do it! Maybe it can go on your resume.

~Made a poem out of a random-non-random phrase some internet Catwing said. It was later awarded such-and-such medal. It also made you hungry. (And by you I mean…[Read more]

@rochellaine I think that counts too. At least for my research and questions. 😀 Thank you.
@sleepwalkingmk *facepalm* I completely forgot that she needs to go to school. But she will be homeschooled. How did I overlook that?
@sarah-anson Sadly Vanessa will still have to be school while they are there.
I’m a perfect angel.
Wow, that could be…[Read more]

@christianna-hellwig Thanks so much! I’ll take a look over this as soon as I get a chance.
