    True, ’tis true, of what you say

    This sadness, so provoking, stay

    And feed this overwhelming loss

    Where poetry does fully ‘lease.

    Break the flow a’from the walls!

    And charge a’through these broken halls!

    Beat them down and flow the ground!

    And crush these hurts into the mound!

    Ohhh, the hurt does call to us,

    We writers of the placid hand

    Where thick, emotions tend to flow

    And always ever ending row.

    And wind is heard, and that afar

    This man, this bird, awake they are.

    To hear the thundering of the waves

    The billows, down they fall; cascade.

    And still to see the setting sun

    Upon the back, this beauteous one.

    This water falling down the way

    And sorrow, kept in whirled way.

    Down the stream and to the sky

    This always runs, never does end.

    Ah, but you see, you must pretend

    Not stay, but follow it along.

    Run until this stream portends

    And finally in lake it ends.

    Puddles fully, despaires unknown 

    Let not your coils struggle within. 

    These convolutions full and thick

    Of doleful thoughts, my friend does stick

    To these ways of sulking head

    And drooping mind, her eyes do tread.

    No poetry does she now write

    Only prose, that now a rite.

    Before our times, never let own

    This sorrow and that grasp your soul.

    “Let not your heart be troubled” by

    These things and let it be lifted up.

    For in these trials we learn and grow

    In Christ, our King, we always know.

    He the maker, we the tree

    We bear fruit because of He.

    Glorious and pondered much

    His Word is set in stone and such

    Is so that we may understand

    These golden, fiery, lancing words

    Of Truth, divine, and from His tongue

    They are, truly, the Words of Life. 

    You know what, I’m sorry! This is really long and indeed I do have much time for it; even this is only is in response to the first half; the first poem that you had writ. On with the second, I shall continue:

    Oh, yes! Verity and mightily arrayed

    These truths of characters endowed.

    I understand your conflict here

    Your thoughts on ripping, minds of flesh.

    Not literally, now, you see

    But more the emotional type, I tell;

    And this wondersome anomaly:

    Within a cumbersome analogy.

    This hilarious and fruitful thought

    That your plight of sorrow; cast, wrought

    On poetry and penned in ink

    Oh, billowous and purple, pink.

    The whole mission of said above

    The promoting reason of this dove

    Of embers of a story, long

    And fruitful with these topics, strong –

    You now shall see my reasoning

    Behind this idol, stranger talk:

    This story ember idea

    To bring about the skills of us,

    The Christian writers, poets, painters

    Of the pen and of the paper

    To create in us, a bursting art

    And in this, too, what you’ve witnessed

    Within your book, of what’sitcalled

    And satire, a nut kit mauled

    By the author, and he to you

    Has taken talents, used them true.

    You know, I think we’ve taken this idea of having a short, nice little competition of writing COUPLETS to the other side. XD

    And yes, ’tis both; the movie, book and talk

    Of which I have rendered free

    Of itself

    and that

    A higher feat.

    For it is in itself a rock,

    Of harder traits, these words do knock

    Upon the door of Mordor’s gates

    And up unto the Durdureth. 

    Yeah, that one’s one of my favourite parts in the movie!!! XD!! *I dropped me brain* Ohhh, so great.

    True, true; they really are some of the better ones, those of the whimwrit. Hey!!! A new word!!! Whimwrit poetry…hmmm. I coined it!!! *looking around aggressively* My word! My rock! (have you seen the new Jungle Book? That part where the porcupine is walking around claiming things. XD!!!
