Just something I wrote tonight after spending the past week wandering about in Eder Kemo.

Eder Kemo


On the walls the pictures
Tell the story of this place
Of King Shomat
And his Garden Ages,
Written by Lemash and Kenri
In greed he wanted it all
Of flowers and colours
Vibrancy and life
A place like no other.

His wish was granted
Of such beauty
Like none had seen before
But inhabitants lived there
Strange creatures
That walked on their hands and feet
Startled him from his thoughts.

He bribed his brothers
That he never spoke to
With gifts of power
And promises of authority
To kill and kill them all
That lived in these Ages.

And when they met these creatures
There hearts were changed
And they knew it was wrong
So they lied to their brother
That the creatures were dead
The Age was his.

Shomat in his praise
Offered them a book
Of beauty and life
Like the Garden Ages
Without thinking or pausing
They went to the Age
Where they died
As Shomat burned the book
There paradise gone.

Shomat screamed through the palace
Ordering Kenri
To write in the book
Thus killing the creatures
Even though he knew it was wrong.

And when the rain falls
The tears of so many
The misery and suffering
Washes across the Age
Of death and greed
A haunting song
Stirs through the wind.

Shocked

Wow, I didn't even suspect that you could write poetry so well. Did you try and enter the DRC's poetry competition?

I missed the DRC's poetry competition, by the time I saw it was happening it was a bit to late to do anything Sad I'm sure there will be other occasions.

Thanks Jon and Professor Askew for your comments Very Happy
