Best Fantasycommunity Poems
It was on the eve of Sunday, November 2nd, 1834
The day grew dark and gloomy like it never had before
Island sounds in diminish, a hush befalls my ears
The community of Amhuinnsuidhe was about to enter fear
A Princess known as Raven who died in years gone by
Foretold before her death beware when Ravens fly
For out there in the Minch a mist will waft it's way
Azure skies will fade and turn a graphite grey
Periodic clouds of jet will shadow in drifts of gloom
The underbellies of the Ravens show, soon they'll share their doom
And on the tor she'll stand silently looking over her lands
Dressed in black, in her now greying ebony strands
As she turns to face the village, her Ravens circle overhead
Whilst the mist now starts to settle revealing the islands dead
Ancient burial stones now rise from their overgrown sacred grounds
Shadows from a forgotten past arise in ghostly abound
Cloaked darkened shapes slowly drift on their mists of time
Silent in their approach to Amhuinnsuidhe they'll undermine
Carnage will be their cater to avenge their Princesses death
To cast out all the living to leave this community reft
The above I read to you, are the memories of who survived
My ancestors escaped this day, and I'm thankful they never died
As I look out on the Minch, at grey clouds looming in the skies
My mind recalls words earlier read, beware when Ravens fly
This is James Fraser's entry into Constance's 'Among the Dead' contest
Show me the way to the town called Serenity
Because I hear that it is a great place to be
That is located in an old fashion community
That is far away from the hustle and bustle
of the big city
And I’ve heard nothing
but good things about Serenity
Because it has a whole community
that is filled with hospitality
And everyone there is nice and friendly
And people who have already been there
keep telling me
That from the moment that you get there
that you will never want to go away
Because the whole community
will treat you like you are part of the family
Show me the way to the town called Serenity
