-eyes of ice-

Rough draft

Started by Nashoba on 18 Mar 2005, 02:34 UTC · 6 preserved posts

This is only the outline of a poem I plan to write about a wolf (from a story of mine) that just happens to rhyme. I'll probably edit this and put the completed version up here later. Even so, DON'T COPY! �Me. Thanks! Any suggestions are welcomed, as this is not the final copy by all means.

EYES OF ICE

Through the wind, through the rain
He has nothing yet to gain.

Driven only by the will to survive,
And yet he knows he may never make it back alive.

And in the distant shadows of the night
A shape arises from the misted light,

A long cry echoes through frozen air,
He awaits a reply but no one is there.

Forgotten, dying and alone,
He searches the stars with a heart of stone.

And his icy glare burns the frost,
But there is no sign of what he lost.

Did he lose anything at all?
Was the echo an answer to his call?

Confused and startled, heart racing like the wind,
He comes to his feet and begins again.

It�s not his fault; it�s not his choice,
It all was stated by another�s voice.

Through the wind, through the rain
He has nothing yet to gain.

He is driven only by the will to survive
And even then he knows he won�t come back alive.
wow that is cool! i like it! and it rymes! but what happened to the wolf?
Nice. I'm no poetry fan, but I know how to appreciate good stuff when I see it!
Wow that is like the best poem! Did you get that idea from Wolf's Rain? Because it seemed alot like the storyline from Wolf's Rain. I wish I could write like that :D . Anyways, from recent writings I read from you, I belive you have alot of potential. Keep writing like that, and you will go far in life.

Wolfen

Thanx everybody!

To Funkee_Pupee: Lol, I can't tell you what happened to him- it's a long and not yet fully-formed story. :p

To Wolfen: No, I haven't even seen Wolf's Rain yet, although I'd like to. ;)
