SD's Poetry

[ShadowDragon]

Alright, yes, I write poems...well, actually, I don't, but our Writing Teacher at school makes us write them, and we had to write one about spring, so I'm going to post it here.

I actually started to write this with Kitsune in mind, DR. You can consider this first one a poem from him.

"PlantSpeech"

I sit among the shadows,
Alone,
By myself.
The others, they ridiculed me.

As I sit here,
Head in hands,
Thousands of voices speak to me.
Call out to me.
I try to make them stop,
But they,
They do not leave me alone.
The voices,
They are strange, yet familiar.
Frightening, yet beautifully alluring.

I try to call out,
To yell for help,
But the others, they just laugh.
They,
They cannot hear the voices,
The sounds.
They call me a liar,
A freak of nature,
A tree-hugger.

These words, these names…
They hurt me.

And so now, I sit here,
Alone,
Among the shadows.

I begin to relax, to let the voices flow through me.
They do not judge.
They do not ridicule.
They listen to me, when no one else will.
They understand me.

You may call me crazy.
You may think I am insane.
But, the opinions of others no longer matter to me.
All I care about are the voices now.

For I…
I can talk…
To plants.
And they can talk…
To me.
They alone listen, when no one else does.

…I always love this time of year…
…It’s springtime now.
The plants are coming back to life…
…And they have much to tell.

Heh heh, thanks!

I actually had to read that out loud to everyone in my class...

It was funny. I was, like, *Melts into pool of embarrasment* please, no...

And everyone else was, like "C'mon, read it, read it!!"

*Evaportes into cloud of embarrasement and drifts away* Its was pretty funny.

*Makes cloud disapear and points laughing at SD* Nah, I'm just kidding. That was really good.
