[dh] called "Her First KNight" *** Mode change [+mi] on channel #afd_poetry by dh [dh] *Her First Knight* [dh] A sad, lonely girl knelt in the meadow, by the waters edge, [dh] Gazing into the blurred reflection, she saw her tears fall upon it. [dh] Casting shadows and sunlight upon the thick forest around her, [dh] Finding her true love had been her one desire. [dh] Wanting, yearning for someone to comfort her, [dh] Desperately she had searched, only finding illusion. [dh] Mistakes...1..2..3..How many would there be? [dh] Then, frantiaclly she tried to wipe away her warm tears, [dh] But the harder she tried to stop them, the more that fell. [dh] A crunching sound was heard, coming closer to her place, [dh] She tried to look, but tears filled her cold green eyes. [dh] A shadowy figure she could see coming closer to her now, [dh] All at once his strong, yet gentle voice could she hear. [dh] "Don't cry," he said, like he already knew her name, [dh] "You make me want to slay the beast that has caused your pain." [dh] Kneeling beside her, two reflesctions, now side-by-side were made, [dh] Reflections...they saw in the water of the black lake.... [dh] Tears filled his eyes now, and he cried for her, [dh] He knew her pain, yet he knew her not. [dh] Where had he come from? How had he known? [dh] Why had he come and when would he go? [dh] Gently and softly he took her small hand in his, [dh] He kissed it, caressed her face, soon her tears dried. [dh] She smiled as she looked in his handsome face, [dh] Looking in his eyes, she saw his own pain, [dh] She kissed away the tears on his face, he smiled back at her. [dh] Then they knew...their destiny had been fulfilled. [dh] They stood now at the waters edge, smiling at eachother, [dh] Alone no longer, they would know loneliness no longer. [dh] He had found his true love..His Lady of the Lake. [dh] She had found her own true love..Her First Knight.

This is where, <Zalyina> my fleshy friend, the line is drawn of tales and truth.. <Zalyina> - <Zalyina> - <Zalyina> Long ago, among the ancient mists, <Zalyina> dragons walked with you and other beings and their ansestors. <Zalyina> Ah, yet this was not this world, Earth, <Zalyina> this was not your time or place of birth. <Zalyina> This was a world not yet discovered, not yet found. <Zalyina> A place of which it is safe, and quite happily, sound. <Zalyina> * <Zalyina> To you, just a place known as the 'immagination', <Zalyina> however this place is thousands of worlds that may (or may not) have connection. <Zalyina> Where dragons, elves, dwarves, and 'anthromorphics' dwell. <Zalyina> Real, actual stuff, that, for an instant, doesn't have a caloused shell... <Zalyina> - <Zalyina> - <Zalyina> 'Wait, wait...so you're saying these things exist???' <Zalyina> ------- <Zalyina> Precise, my homosapien foe..or friend if you wish it so. <Zalyina> ------- <Zalyina> 'But, hey that can't be! There's no dragon bones, or remains of.. <Zalyina> of whatever those 'anthromorficks' are -' <Zalyina> ------- <Zalyina> Tsk, it's a-n-t-h-r-o-m-o-r-p-h-i-c-s. Tis a shame you know not <Zalyina> of what they are. Infact, it's not even in your dictionaries is it.. <Zalyina> A true shame. <Zalyina> ------- <Zalyina> 'Yeah yeah..but there isn't any proof!!' <Zalyina> ------- <Zalyina> Is that so? My, my friends must have hid themselves well in the end.. <Zalyina> There is no solid proof of this 'God' of your's... <Zalyina> Nor the reasons why the universes came to be and how. <Zalyina> So pipe down, frail thing, and I'll continue.. <Zalyina> - <Zalyina> - <Zalyina> My kind, the dragons, lived about everywhere.. <Zalyina> Yes, they did indeed exist on your precious Earth, <Zalyina> but they were almost wiped out suprisingly.. <Zalyina> Taken back, I mean, they were only small things of 50 ft or less... <Zalyina> the ones that survived well over that mass. <Zalyina> Yet, I'm not from the Earth they lived, the Earth you live, <Zalyina> but I know their pains and sorrows of what they did give. <Zalyina> They tried to give them knowledge, you bare-fleshed ones, <Zalyina> you without natural armor or defense against the sons. <Zalyina> What happened to their bones you ask? <Zalyina> They were ground to dust and worn away by the desert's mask. <Zalyina> Those that survived left this Earth in search of other worlds.. <Zalyina> where, I'm not certin, but somewhere where death at them, isn't hurled. <Zalyina> * <Zalyina> The other beings you care to know? <Zalyina> They've been here, and gone with the winds that blow. <Zalyina> The elven and drawven bones passed by humans as themselves, as they pleased, <Zalyina> they lived and dwell on your Earth, passing themselves as humans with ease. <Zalyina> Anthromorphics live there too, <Zalyina> just out of the sight of you. <Zalyina> - <Zalyina> - <Zalyina> 'Just a darned moment. Why are you speaking in -rymes-?' <Zalyina> ------- <Zalyina> *sigh* Must you interrupt me again? <Zalyina> It's the way it should be told! There is no other way <Zalyina> that it can be said with meaning. <Zalyina> Now, do you have any other questions? Or can I, <Zalyina> shall I, start from where I left off? <Zalyina> ------- <Zalyina> 'Umm...Ok. What about those dragons and other beings.. <Zalyina> those...well..those other things..that don't live on Earth?' <Zalyina> ------- <Zalyina> I was getting to that.. <Zalyina> Now, dare you speak again, you might lose a tounge in your head! <Zalyina> - <Zalyina> - <Zalyina> As for those that don't live on Earth <Zalyina> they dwell in places much like it's worth. <Zalyina> However, most are not as crude, polluted, <Zalyina> most that is (for reference and respect to those whose worlds are such looted). <Zalyina> These worlds are far and beyond the realms and planes, <Zalyina> each in their own, on Earth humans' mind, play mind games. <Zalyina> Seeing that they know not of those other worlds..those other dimensions.. <Zalyina> those other realities..those other..well, you get what I mention. <Zalyina> * <Zalyina> How I know this, you are about to query? <Zalyina> Simple; I've known these beings from all around and beleive them clearly. <Zalyina> I've secretly seen their homes from their own perspective, <Zalyina> as they've seen mine as they wanted to see another collective. <Zalyina> I've walked alongside their past, <Zalyina> I've walked alongside their words as you should at long last. <Zalyina> The tales are no longer tall, <Zalyina> the tales are ever so, almost non-existantly, small.. <Zalyina> Everything and anything can and could exist, <Zalyina> you need not proof to know something is real and actual and missed. <Zalyina> - <Zalyina> - <Zalyina> So now, do you finally understand? <Zalyina> Do you beleive now in what you hadn't before, <Zalyina> although you hadn't seen it with your own two eyes? <Zalyina> ------- <Zalyina> '...I think it's making sense now. That there are worlds beyond this one, <Zalyina> and planes beyond that inwhich support life unlike these...Yes, hadn't <Zalyina> I been told by a dragon, I might not have given it a second or third thought.' <Zalyina> ------- <Zalyina> Ah, tis good, tis good. Now, spread my words to all you meet, <Zalyina> let them know that there is more out there. Now, I bid you farewell, <Zalyina> take care on your journey through life..remember what I've told you.. <Zalyina> - <Zalyina> - <Zalyina> YB 99 Jan 9th * Zalyina waddles off the stage and under the rafter she was recently on *** Mode change [-mi] on channel #afd_poetry by dh <Silvermist> Nice one.....Wonderful storytelling..... * Anduwaithe scrolls.....
