DO NOT POST - Backup in Progress

Poem

Postby Spell Gal » Tue Nov 20, 2001 11:15 pm

Okay, well since I've seen some poetry go up here now, I thought I may as well add my efforts. No spoilers really, just that Willow and Tara are together, and let's face it, that's why we're all here :+) Hmmm, I don't really write poetry normally, but Willow and Tara just kinda inspire you, ya know? :+) So here it goes...

Clamy hands, sweaty palms
Silent tears, fever dreams
Then nothing -
But Her.

She chooses this moment
To curl against me

The feel of her body
The warmth of her skin
The smell of her hair

Reminds me
Calms me
Chases away my demons
Literally and figuratively
I smile at that -
Snuggle closer to her

And once again,
I sleep.

And how long have you known that your girlfriend's Tinkerbell?

hey, I'm sorry I kinda didn't see that before..it's beautiful! (And I'm not just saying this because you liked my poems).

I can feel an atmosphere of total calmness caused by the presence of each other, what a great image. It also reminds me of a quote, the Rainbowwriters mentioned in their Circle Series:

“Once on gossamer wings of angels, I was lifted up to watch my sleeping form, Love anew filled my heart. When I observed clutched in my hand, a promise of the morn, and though I slumbered I knew that now as forever. When we met true love was born. The demons around me were no smaller, and the weight in my head not light but the hope in my heart blazed bright and true. For I held in my hand, a promise from you.”

Aysha Drake
Since this is such a wonderful quote, it's a compliment when I think of it when I'm reading your poems.

Post some more, OK? *resolve face* I'd love to read more, this is a very good start!

Thank you so much to everyone that has taken the time to reply to my first attempt at poetry on the board. I haven't been posting stuff very long at all, and this is the first place I have ever posted my fic or poetry, and I already realise that I am a feedback junkie...Thanks guys!

First of all, you deserve this very much, no kidding!
And isn't that surprising how quick you become addicted to check the board every hours, desperately looking for feedback.
It's just such a nice thing.

Edited to add: the quote is on extraflamey, Rainbowwriters but I've got no clue where in this VERY VERY long fic you can find it. But I'm sure you can skip the last two parts and it's somewhere in the middle or towards the end. Glad you like it 'cause I love that quote.

Simply wonderful. Envisioning Willow and Tara like that gives me a warm fuzzy feeling.

Beautiful work Spell Gal.

Ok, this is the first poem I have ever posted on-line.
It's from Willow's point of view as she gives up magic and thinks of Tara.

A Battle Won

Way down in a crevice of my mind, lays a monster half asleep.
A fossil of my childhood, a creature of the deep.
It has a predilection for old customs and beliefs.
It likes to gnaw deep in my soul with neither respite nor relief.
It lurks beneath the shadows, calling itself the shadow king.
It overwhelms my consciousness and undermines my being.
My tenuous grip on sanity is quickly fading fast.
I will not give up this fight but I feel I cannot last.
How do I fight a cancer that has already begun ?
I cannot use a knife or spear or even a big gun.
The answer to my question lies within my serendipity.
The memory of you smile and love can always set me free.
The precious relics of our memories that I thought I did not need will help me fight this creature with all its insatiable needs.

I like it. It can be from Willow's point of view as though she's talking about the magic or it could be from Tara's point of view as though she's talking about her family past. Great poem.
