Premium Member The Mythical Fisher Woman - Inspired By Contest
I encountered her on a dark stormy night
Her huge trout like lips were a scary sight
Strands of white spittle formed on angry lips
huge folds of fat spilled over her wobbly hips
With scaly grey skin and blood red eyes
and legs so fat they chafed her thighs
Hair...

Premium Member The Mythical River Beast
I watched it emerge
from out of the fog, monumental
in size, a sheer cliff face of steel 
moving pass me, almost
quieter than my breath 
but for a whispered wake
running from its bow.
Something this big
should have made 
more noise.

A black hull bore scars 
of scrapings and rust...

A Mythical Creature
The sun dulled to a shade of green,
A creature hanging there I hadn't seen
Wings of webs and sparkling coloured hues
Seeming to be smiling at me, head tilted

A mystical creature there only I could see
The sun eclipsed; the darkness brings
a creature hanging with webbed wings,
seeming to...

Premium Member Mythical Performance
Playing music of magical mythological sound
As if meditating to mesmerize those around,
Lion and tiger bow down being spellbound,
Legendary painting depicts myths profound.

Hands hold the lyre, strings echo the singer,
Mythical lyrics reverberate and aurally linger.
Shoulder muscles restrain his leaning stance,
Animals hypnotized, intently stare in trance.

Silent posture...

Mythical Mirage

As my iris heart
sleeps on an orchid pillow ~
fading memories
alive like alzheimer's blooms
swirl in magnolia zephyrs...


I'm a myth, reborn as rust, in life's twilight rendezvous,
laced with truth's tulip Luna and lies' lavender crescent ~ alike
like laser light, serenading in cranberry croons of time. 


Eden's mirage...

Mythical Creature of Old
Scales of azure and emerald green,
Adorn tri-folding translucent wings,
Radiating an iridescent sheen,
	Off this mythical creature of old...

Crimson flames with every breath,
His eyes shrewd with amber hue,
One touch was the kiss of death,
	From this mythical creature of old...

Soaring high in sapphire skies,
Thunder roaring over the land,
Queens...

Mythical Pest
My parents complain of a mythical pest,

Infesting our house since the 7th of July,

Devouring the snacks, desserts,

delicacies and everything hot, spicy or sweet,

Determined to find the beast,

Fattened with food meant for me.

with a magic wand and on a broom to hunt

set out may it be...

The Mythical Unsung Heros
Evil Loki and Queen Maeve
have joined forces to make a mob.
All evil creatures that had died before
with the powers between them
these same creatures will live once more.
They raised Medusa the long dead gorgan
with Athena's shield, which they had stolen.
And given the Cyclops another eye;
another thing...

The Mythical Nine
To one who places pen to paper,
one may work the whims of Terpsichore

Those who write a witty Chastushka,
may be hearing the voice of Polyhymnia

Those who give thought to a Fibonacci,
could possibly have heard of Melpomene

Those who claim fame to stanzas Ottava Rima,
pen with the hand...

Mythical Wit, Whimsical Myth
- By Olongapoet

Are those dragon scales, your reason’s hides?
That I’d need St.George’s lance to pierce thru.
Need I look for angry Odin’s lost eye?
To see through thy cynicism’s Stygian depths?

Why does the sweet ambrosia of my offerings,
Seem mediocre for your Asgardian gratitude?
I’m not too far away...

Mythical
You're a myth that I cannot explain
Unheard of, perhaps
But the consequence is the same

The moments you care are what intrigue me the most
But loyalty is dead
A contrary anecdote

Fascination is key to lure the lamb in to stay
But this story is different
The lion is the prey

Premium Member A Land of Mythical Creatures
Once upon a time in an alluring place
Flourishing realm sweet with seasons showers pace
The earth food for life the lush greenness embrace
Array of flowering plants that twirl and lace
Birds twittered on leafy branches full of grace
Rare butterflies with wide, vibrant wings took chase
Bobbing on the...

Mythical Greek characters can be seen in the sky
  Orion, the giant huntsman, draws back his bow
 The constellation Cygnus, is said to be Zeus in disguise
 Draco, the dragon appears in the big Dipper's glow

 The Romans gave us Luna, she lights up...
