Rapunzell's Fantasy Poetry

Fantasy Poems

Right now I only have two of my fantasy poems* here, but I hope to have more up soon. There are a few poems by other people on my fantasy quote page. Belief Shadows and Light

"Belief" If we could ever expell disbelief, And banish as well the stubborness deep, That insists and contends as if written in stone, That all the true facts are from their minds alone.... They say that we're wrong, "There is no such thing," No dragon e'er flew on spread leathery wing, No unicorn free and fine e'er was known, And no troll caught in sunshine was found turned to stone. Some things in life must be believed to be seen, But some can't take that truth, it won't fit in their scheme. To them, What is seen is believed, but this beguiles and belies, For they just can't percieve and they won't trust our eyes. If we're ever to learn to break through that doubt, Their faith must be gained, their mistrust taken out. For if every creature believes true and strong, Who will remain to honestly say that we're wrong.

"Shadows and Light"

Where has the dragon flown,
That he casts no more
His shadow ‘pon the land
Though the sun is shining high?

Where has the unicorn fled,
That her glowing horn
No longer brightens
The darkest forest shadows?

They're gone from here,
And taken all their kith and kin.
And people strive to bask
In nonexistent light of nonbelief.

And without them,
Our once-bright world cowers
Under the shadow of mourning,
Searching desperately through the murk
For the lost path our lost friends took.

* Yes I did actually write the poems on this page myself. If you have a poetry page and would like to post one, all i ask is that you list me as author. (That would be Megan Skelly, not Rapunzell) Of course, if it's not too much trouble you could Email me to let me know about it, and maybe a little link would be nice but it's not necessary. I don't think any of that's unreasonable, now, Do you?
