Poem

[Sharkith]

omg what is happening to my thread...... not only are you a perv Saytn I find out now your a sad one too....

OK to counter the negative vibes here is one:

A Little Bird

In alien lands devoutly clinging
To age-old rites of Russian earth,
I let a captive bird go winging
To greet the radiant spring's rebirth.

My heart grew lighter then: why mutter
Against God's providence, and rage,
When I was free to set aflutter
But one poor captive from his cage!
Puskin

[Satyn]

did I offend you?

I found this last year on one of the many daoc sites dont remember where or by who its written tho





Hear my story fellow Hibs
and fill your hearts with pride
as I tell of our chosen home
with forests deep and wide!

Our home of nature's beauty,
I know we're truly blessed
so let me tell you why our land
is certainly the best.

We have the mighty Hero
who has nothing to fear
to bad he's kinda gimpy with
his old and useless spear.

We also have the Ranger
that archer quick and keen
too bad he cannot use his stealth...
is by assassins seen.

The awesome Bard, our speed machine
is faster than a bullet
too bad he sucks at fighting and
he dies with just one hit.

Our druids are a secksi bunch
thier heals are really hot.
Too bad there's only one in Hib
and that's somebody's bot.

Blademasters rock with swords in hand
they strike to fast too see
if only thier main spec was not
a gimp line called CD.

Eldies WOW! Those guys are great!
thier nukes quickly deployed
they'd be awesome defenders but
they never spec in Void.

Chanters are the PL bunch
with focus pulls they gank
its really great that with thier pets
they never group a tank.

Mentalists are really sweet
except they cannot kill
thier nukes are kinda sucky and
they cannot really heal.

Champs are uber tankage guys
but often times they bleed
thier epic armor looks so cool
they never get SCed.

Valewalkers are a wicked class
but only played by pharmers
i mean whoever heard about
a tank that wears cloth armor?

Animists are pretty nice
if you are a defender
but in the normal RvR
Trolls eat thier shrooms for dinner.

Wardens are a salty crew
with Bladeturn for their bucks
they would be just an awesome class
except thier melee sucks.

Our uber class the Nightshade,
often fights all alone
but most have got a gimpy spec
and can't get respec stones.

Our classes rule the frontiers
our dominance is fated
it doesnt really matter that
we're underpopulated.

Lift your voices loud in song
and raise on high your flagon!
Rejoice that you of all the realms
have the most Uber Dragon!

And so my fellow Hibbies
sing your songs aloud
for you are of Hibernia
strong and free and proud!!!

[Sharkith]

did I offend you?

of course not I was joking - keep them coming

[Satyn]

not a poem but a lyric

Ice Queen

When leaves have fallen
And skies turned into grey.
The night keeps on closing in on the day
A nightingale sings his song of farewell
You better hide for her freezing hell

On cold wings she's coming
You better keep moving
For warmth, you'll be longing
Come on just feel it
Don't you see it?
You better believe it.

When she embraces
Your heart turns to stone
She comes at night when you are all alone
And when she whispers
Your blood shall run cold
You better hide before she finds you

Whenever she is raging
She takes all life away
Haven't you seen?
Haven't you seen?
The ruins of our world

She covers the earth with a breathtaking cloak
The sun awakes and melts it away
The world now opens its eyes and sees
The dawning of a new day

Whenever she is raging
She takes all life away
Haven't you seen?
Haven't you seen?
The ruins of our world

[Satyn]

Never-ending Story

Armies have conquered
And fallen in the end
Kingdoms have risen
Then buried by sand
The Earth is our mother
She gives and she takes
She puts us to sleep and
In her light we'll awake
We'll all be forgotten
There's no endless fame
But everything we do
Is never in vain

We're part of a story, part of a tale
We're all on this journey
No one is to stay
Where ever it's going
What is the way?

Forests and deserts
Rivers, blue seas
Mountains and valleys
Nothing here stays
While we think we witness
We are part of the scene
This never-ending story
Where will it lead to?
The earth is our mother
She gives and she takes
But she is also a part
A part of the tale

We're part of a story, part of a tale
We're all on this journey
No one is to stay
Where ever it's going
What is the way?
We're part of a story, part of a tale
Sometimes beautiful and sometimes insane
No one remembers how it began.

[Bugzy]

will use my fav. song tbh, i think it rawks:

And love is not the easy thing
The only baggage that you can bring
Love is not the easy thing
The only baggage you can bring
Is all that you can't leave behind...

And if the darkness is to keep us apart
And if the daylight feels like it's a long way off
And if your glass heart should crack
And for a second you turn back
Oh no, be strong

Oh, oh
Walk on, walk on
What you got, they can't steal it
No, they can't even feel it
Walk on, walk on
Stay safe tonight

You're packing a suitcase for a place none of us has been
A place that has to be believed, to be seen
You could have flown away
A singing bird in an open cage
Who will only fly, only fly, for freedom

Oh, oh
Walk on, walk on
What you got, they can't deny it
Can't sell it, or buy it
Walk on, walk on
You stay safe tonight

And I know it aches
And your heart, it breaks
You can only take so much

Walk on...
Walk on...

Home...
Hard to know what it is, if you never had one
Home...
I can't say where it is, but I know I'm going
Home...
That's where the hurt is...

And I know it aches
And your heart, it breaks
And you can only take so much

Walk on...
(Hooo)

Leave it behind
You got to leave it behind
All that you fashion
All that you make
All that you build
All that you break
All that you measure
All that you feel

All this you can leave behind

All that you reason, (it's only time)
(Love is a feeling on my mind)
All that you sense
All that you scheme
All you dress-up
All that you've seen
All you create
All that you wreck
All that you hate


U2 - Walk on - amazing song.

[Gitt]

I will put Chaos into fourteen lines

I will put Chaos into fourteen lines
And keep him there; and let him thence escape
If he be lucky; let him twist, and ape
Flood, fire, and demon --- his adroit designs
Will strain to nothing in the strict confines
Of this sweet order, where, in pious rape,
I hold his essence and amorphous shape,
Till he with Order mingles and combines.
Past are the hours, the years of our duress,
His arrogance, our awful servitude:
I have him. He is nothing more nor less
Than something simple not yet understood;
I shall not even force him to confess;
Or answer. I will only make him good.

-- Edna St. Vincent Millay

[Hatsepsut]

Nothing can ever happen twice.
In consequence, the sorry fact is
that we arrive here improvised
and leave without the chance to practice.

Even if there is no one dumber,
if you're the planet's biggest dunce,
you can't repeat the class in summer:
this course is only offered once.

No day copies yesterday,
no two nights will teach what bliss is
in precisely the same way,
with exactly the same kisses.

One day, perhaps, some idle tongue
mentions your name by accident:
I feel as if a rose were flung
into the room, all hue and scent.

The next day, though you're here with me,
I can't help looking at the clock:
A rose? A rose? What could that be?
Is it a flower or a rock?

Why do we treat the fleeting day
with so much needless fear and sorrow?
It's in its nature not to stay:
Today is always gone tomorrow.

With smiles and kisses, we prefer
to seek accord beneath our star,
although we're different (we concur)
just as two drops of water are.

Wislawa Szymborska "Nic dwa razy" (Nothing twice)
The translation is rather bad :/

[Ankh Morpork]

That is not dead which can eternal lie
And with strange aeons even death may die
