Sheik made a surprise event today!
This will only last for one week, everyone will post poetry in this post. Let yourself have fun!
You can use Diamante, Acrostic, Free verse, Haiku, Limericks and many more! It has to be from the heart and imagination, which means it's ALL you, if you use someone else's work you will be disqualified hoebags! I can google what you wrote to see if it's a plagiarized.
I'll show you an example of each poem.
Here are some of mine!
Diamante: Must Have opposites, one on the bottom and the other on top, for example love and hate. At the second to first line and second to last line it must have two words describing the noun directly above or below it (see example below). At the third to first and third to last lines you must use three words (you can also use a word that helps describe the word with the ing, i.e. ferociously eating) with ing that describe the noun it is closest to or what you picture when you think of the noun. The middle line must lead the first noun into the next, which means continuing the poem by changing the first noun into the next noun, like this "Sun falls, then the moon rises". This changes the noun from A beautiful Day to a calming Night.

It's suppost to form a diamond. It only needs to be one stanza though, I just made it a three in one.
Acrostic: It's so easy! Just make a word going straight down and make a sentence or another word for each letter.
Love
By: Anonymous
Looking for his smile
Over the croud and
Viewing him for the first time
Erased the pain
Haiku: This is a very well known form of poetry, it consists of a short stanza of three lines with the first line containing any amount of words, but must altogether contain only five syllables, the second must be seven, and the third five again. It's not too hard, if you don't know what a syllable is, it is the amount of beats in a word. For example take the word compound, Com-pound, That makes two syllables, now try Canada, Can-a-da. That makes three
Here are three poems, and the first by an unknown person.

5: Gleaming in the Sun
These three below are by: yours truly
Self Reflection
Time flies, people move
Like a stream, it never ends
Water reflects growth
Pasted Time
Come back, nothing’s here
I whistle a serenade
Cherish Memories
The Minuet of Forest
Graceful Gales whistle
A minuet of Forest
Flying to Serene
Limerick: Lz will like this one! This is a poem where you just say something, random silly and funny! It consists of a stanza with five lines in a sing-song rhythm. The first, third, and fifth lines must rhyme with each other, and the second and fourth must rhyme with the other (preferably shorter then the other three lines). The rhyme pattern is A,B,A,B.A. You can also do it with the first, second and fifth lines rhyming and the third and fourth lines rhyming as well i.e. A,A,B,B,A.
Here is how the first type of limerick should consist.
Pissed Yoga Girl
By: Sheik (none other)
There was once a little girl who practiced yoga
AThen one day someone pushed her over
BThen she got mad and pimp slapped Yoda
AThen she felt bad and gave him a clover
BHe asked for her name and she said Olga
AHere is the second type of limerick
By: Anonymous
There was an old man from Peru
AWho dreamed he was eating a shoe
AHe woke up in a fright
BIn the middle of the night
BAnd found it was pretty true
AFree Verse: Basically a poem of anything you want, it can be funny or meaningful and it doesn't have to be in a rhyme or stanza. It's basically all you, no example is really needed.
There are many other forms of poetry but I don't wanna make it any longer than it already is (that's what she said) and I just want you all to have fun. Let your hearts write! Poetry is not girly, its a way of representing yourself and opening up to others. I think this will be a great way to bond with each other, I hope so, because I don't want our team to fight anymore.
The Judges will be The Eye of a Sheikah, zeldafreak07, and lionzero. Judges can play too, as well as vote for each other. I don't think I need to tell you that we can't vote for ourselves because your all little obedient boys and girls aren't you?
It will be a scoring system of 1-10. Ten being the greatest!
I will be Sheik/Zelda, ZF will be Link, and lz will be GANONWIFE. So it's a Triforce jugdement!
Have fun you guys, I made this for all of my buddies on the site. Sheik out
