Leanan's EQ poems (was: A poem about Newstar)

I guess it's easy to figure out from whose point of view this is written... Elves don't write poetry, but they do sing...

This is dedicated to NightAngel. Because she was my inspiration for these clumsy words... it took me a moment to realize that with a slight modification there is a perfect EQ situation this fits...

A New Star In My Sky Tonight

I've been beaten in my own game
And I love the feeling

I surrender
I am yours
Yours for the night

Yours for a dance a kiss a touch
Yours for a joining

I drink in your beauty
I drown into your eyes

When did you grow so tall?
How many heats have you broken, already?

Young one, sweet one...
Merry one, cunning one...

I bury my hands in your hair
I surrender

Yours for a joining

There's a maiden in my arms tonight
A laughing maiden, golden and so bright

There's a new star in my sky tonight
There's a new star, golden and so bright

Lovely poem, Leanan. And I can certainly see those feelings, those thoughts, running through Skywise's head as Newstar pushes him down into the grass . . .

Someone should start an Elfquest poetry thread.

About the Recognition of Shale and Eyes High, from her point of view...

Eyes High Recognized

I thought I had everything I needed
The wolfsong, the pack, the bond
The starsong, and the peace of being on my own

Being all my own.

Then one night,
-for the stars it was like any other-
My eyes met eyes
Shining silver
Right into my soul

Now my blood sings a new song
A song of belonging
Of two becoming one
And a third soul to come...

Oh, sweet Recognition!

The stars, I know,
Shine no brighter than before
And yet, somehow,
The night is full of light

Oh, sweet lifemate
Oh, beloved
Watch the stars with me tonight?

A lovely, romantic piece, Leanan. Should be set to music-- it would make a great love song. Smile

thanks wordgazer and twinkle... I'm awfully critical of my poems, I'm glad you like them... especially since wordgazer is a great writer and twinkle is a wonderful poet herself..

A tiny little piece about soulnames, or knowing who you are.

This is the dance
I was shaped to dance,
This is the dream
I was meant to dream,
This is the flight
I was born to fly.
This is my soul.
