Who dares speak of the Late Rose,
That in yonder garden grows?
Do not say that she died in vain,
For through her all beasts life did gain.

She rose up against mighty foes
To rid the land of evil and woes.
Although she fell in battle's heat
Nevermore her friends to greet,

Still she rose in majestic hue
Though on her grave now lies the dew.
She is still remembered by all,
With fondness and love at Redwall.



First poem that I have put up here, I always enjoyed reading a writing poetry and now here it is to be seen by all! Hope everyone enjoys it, short though it be. This was about Late Rose in Martin the Warrior, in case anyone was wondering.
Dreams, dreams are untapped and writhing. How much more real are dreams than that paltry existence which we now call reality? How shall we ascend to that which humanity is destined? By mastering the dreamworld of course. That is how, my pupils, that is how.

The Skarzs

Short and sweet.
Shouldn't this go into Fan Fiction, though?

Cave potato.

Delthion

I didn't think so since this isn't really fiction. But I guess it could!

The Skarzs

Well, I thought we always put writing works into Fan Fiction. I had a whole poem thread on the other forum.

@James Gryphon, could you please move this into Fan fiction please?

And comments are definitely appreciated, I don't know what everyone thinks of this, and therefore I don't know how I might improve! ;D

@James Gryphon, thanks! ;D

That's very good Del! I presonally enjoy how it started off similar to the I Am That Is riddle from the first Redwall book. Oh, and the first line on the last two stanzas with the "she rose up" was very clever. Very well done!
I want the world of Tolkien,
The message of Lewis;
The adventure of Jacques,
And the heart of Milne.
But I want the originality of me.



Delthion

Thanks! Honestly, what you mentioned was completely unintentional. ;D I don't remember the riddle and didn't notice the Rose/rose! ;D

Fron you FCC posts, I expected this to go more like "Oh Late Rose, you were pretty hot for a cartoon mouse"

Thanks for the compliment, but seriously? ;D

Good stuff, Delthion :D I always love reading the poems and rhymes you guys post on here. Like Skarzs said, short and sweet!

Nice, I like it. Write more! ;D

Thanks, MatthiasMan, for the avatar!

When I think of a topic which I can write of I shall! ;D
