Poetry

An outlet for players whose creativity extends beyond the board. Post your original works here!

The posting of song lyrics is not the purpose of this board and as such please refrain from doing so. Exceptions can be made to this rule if you are the copyrighted owner of the lyrics and the lyrics are not found offensive by the majority of the population.
This board is a place to post your original works of poetry and prose and also a place for discussion of poetry and related areas.

We have received word from Fencer that other's poetry can be posted to this board. These are the two conditions:
1) When someone posts a known copyrighted poem, he must add the author's name as well
2) If the author is not known, the poem can be posted without problems

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.

Over several game plays
To prove it could be done
I asked dear MidnightMedic
To try my native tongue.

I helped her with the double 'l's,
I helped her with the 'd's,
I taught her that a single 'f'
Sounds like an English 'v'.

The double 'd' becomes 'th' you see,
Double 'f' is like your 'f',
I think we conquered all of these,
I hope it was enough.

And now she knows the longest word,
It's not difficult to say,
But her friends had better take great care
To avoid the snot and spray.

The 'l's can drown your dopey dog
Or your unsuspecting cat,
Put your budgie in a plastic mac
With a lovely little hat.

Y Ddraig Goch is a fearsome beast,
He has a breath of 'cân',
But MM can drown a flock of sheep
When she sings 'Calon Lân'.

By me.
