I'm getting tired of so many being inactive, so I thought this would be a good idea. I'm a poetry lover, so i would like to see how creative my members can be. Submit an original poem, and then we'll have a vote to see who'll get the grand prize. Now, I'm not very wealthy, so donations would be welcome. So for now, here are the prizes:
1st place: 7000 g
2nd place: 5000 g
3rd place: 3500 g

I'll compete!
Life can be wonderful,
Life can be lame.
But one thing is for sure,
It is never tame.
Some don't appreciate it,
and chose to end early.
But others live to the max,
and others just relax.
But I have an opinion.
Life is like hair!
It can be curly, wavy, straight, and mixed.
And when you end, there is none.
Life as hair also has colors,
From white to black.
There is nothing life lacks.
So don't turn your backs.
Like it? It's my own!

I'll compete too!
Poetry is a way to express thy feelings,
to explain with words of ryme.
And it leaves you feeling great,
every single time.
But you do not have to ryme,
You can just write plain sentences.
But what counts,
is inside.
I may not be the greatest poet in the world,
But I think I'm pretty great.
No one is better than another,
though.
Because all your're doing is expressing feeling,
wether you feel as hos as lava, or cold as snow.
Like it, love it, adore it? It's an original!

This is actually part of a song I wrote, but it's a type of poetry too! ^^
I gaze at society, swayed by its promise
Wealth, happiness, love
A trap filled with hope.
Never again shall I fall for such tragedies
Now I watch the demise of all I knew
Casting my mistakes to the flame.
I swear by an oath that was laid down in blood
Sacrifice, compassion, love
A life filled with hope
Only for you shall I submit my dreams
Planting my life with the seeds of fruition
A harvest that's long overdue.
I left out the chorus, because it doesn't flow with the poetry's beat, but I do feel the poem has less meaning without the chorus.
