If you have any poems or songs you wrote in the guild or about it, post them here!

That is all. 3nodding

I found these on my old computer, so they're a bit outdated. Also untitled. The first one's based on 'Monumental Memories' by arrow dnarrow and summonergirl001:

They errected this monumnet six months ago,
Don't think it's a wonderful plan?
I know you'd happy, wherever you are,
As for me, I can't say I am.

I can hardly beleive that it's just been one turn
Since the day that you went between.
Time seems to crawl by without you
Could be a hundred or more turns, it seems.

I wanted to tell you about all the things
That have happened since I last spoke to you
The weyr has another new leader,
A girl, and a brown rider too

And the green are still flight-ing, and the males are still fighting
And there's a new clutch on the way
And thread is falling and Pern is still calling
Its dragons and their men to the fray

You know, last month a boy died in threadfall
And I barely made it through
Because his dragon's fear and his sister's tears
Remind how much I miss you

But I go on because I know, or else I cling to the hope,
That one day I'll see you again
I'm not doing well, but I am getting by
So I'll try to be patient till then

I have to go now, but you take care
I'll be missing and thinking of you
We're all very busy, but I'll to come visit
I'm sorry, I'll talk to you soon



And this one's about the plague in general:

I won't retell the story
For I'm sure that you all know
The vile scourge that swept through Pern
One turn and a half ago

And though many didn't make it
And their names we shall not forget
What doesn't kill us now
Will make us stronger yet

For the tragedy we've suffered
Is a common bond we've shared
And the bickerings of day to day
Seem smaller when compared

But a dragonman can never rest
His time to mourn is brief
For the enemy of Pern
Cares nothing for his grief

So though we may be fewer now
We take proudly to the sky
And the spirits of those who left us
Will be with us when we fly



They're both songs and have tunes, but I can't really tell you the tune, so I guess you'll have to read them as poems or make it up yourself! xd
(The first one's a little similar to 'Kilkelly Ireland')

Old Song/Poems are old. I need to write more because I brilliantly decided to play Telgar's Harper (I don't think we have any others). Anyway, not particularly inspired by anything. They're just old thing. No biggie.

I See Dragons
A glint against the golden sun,
The blues and greens dancing in the waves
I see dragons all around me
I hear their voices in the breeze

The earth dances in shades of brown
Bronze flakes glitter against the stone
I see dragons all around me
Listen to their voices in the wind

I look around these lonely places
Everything seems to be the same
Then this lonely Harper gazes upwards
To see the dragons flying on the wind


Firelizard Ballad (Name due to change)
Little beauty sitting by the lake
Let me write a song for you
Little beauty sitting by the lake
Let us dance together in the sun

Delicate lovely, let me sing a song for you
Let us stay together a while and watch together
My delicate lovely, how can I say how much I love you?
Words can never be enough to say what I mean!

My dear little lovely, let me make a promise
My arms shall be your shelter
My dear little lovely, let me love you forever
My heart shall be yours, and yours only.

Chase

From the egg into the sky
A dragon's heart will surely fly
Whether full of fight or desire
Within is held their brightest fire

She feels a fierce need start to grow
Her skin will take a tell-tale glow
Her challenge sounds, a siren call
Wishing, they Chase, one and all

Assemble, hurry, the end is near
A rider's prize is waiting here
Mirrored hope for joy to share
Of which all gathered are aware

Blue, brown, and bronze are seen
Toiling after soaring green
Into the darkened sky of night
Who will win the mating flight?
