Welcome!
Hairo there everyone. |D
SOOO I know Timecraze has her own awesome Poem shop/giveaway, and she's great at it! But, being a writer myself, I'd really like to do the same. I love poems and I want more practice with them. <3
So, here goes! C: The first few rounds will be free I guess, until I decide to charge something. Tips are appreciated but unnecessary. <33

Styles
There be different styles of poems of course. C: I'm very OCD about neatness and accuracy to what you want or are imagining! So please tell me what specific things you want in your poem OTL.
Types of Poems
There are different types of poems, if some of you don't know. Let me know which one you want! I need practice in writing the types listed.
Ballads
Shorter poems usually written to be sung. They use simplistic terms and short, dramatic action. Don't usually have any emotion, only referenced facts or events.
Lyric Poems
Like a ballad, but it focuses on the certain emotion of one character, not the actions of them. A bit longer than ballads, also meant to be sung, but it doesn't matter.
Odes
Extensive, detailed, and descriptive poems with intricate qualities. Basically the two above combined, plus these are longer. Just like the above poems, these can be sung, but are usually to long/eloquent. Packed with both action and emotions; I'm best at these, but I need to practice simplicity! xD
Rhymes of Poems
The rhyme of poems is also important. *nods* Apparently. Hooray for looking up rhyming patterns in poems! This shop is teaching me so much lol.
True Rhyme
Just what it sounds like-words that rhyme perfectly.
Ex: Cat, hat, mat, sat. Deer, queer, leer. Floor, moor, door. Hear, near, fear.
Weak/Slant Rhyme
Words that are slightly similar, but do not rhyme perfectly.
Ex: bear, boar. Steel, stool.
Eye Rhyme
Words that look like they'd rhyme, but do not rhyme at all. HOWEVER, THIS STILL HAS A RHYMING RYTHYM TO SOME DEGREE.
Ex: to, go. ( "tew" "go" ) Bear, hear. ("bayer" "heeyar" )
Free Lance
The difference between this and Eye rhyme is that the words normally do not rhyme at all, or look like they'd rhyme, or anything. But there is still a rythym to it. Just no rhyme!
(THIS OPTION DOES NOT MEAN I CHOOSE FROM THE ONES ABOVE. It is a different option! If you don't care what rhyme I choose, just say "your choice" or something :3 )

Examples
Hm....I really haven't written any poems so far designated for these examples, so I'll whip some up in a sec. C:
Ballads
Slick and quick
that's how she plays
every night, and every day!
Eat and sleep;
then rest, the pests
are endlessly vicious.
Fight, fight!
With all her might;
but feline and canine
were a bad match.
For shame, the game
that she once ruled
she lost. At what cost?
Her flesh.
How sad, how mad
courses through her veins
the mighty Dragon, a rag doll?
Her blood.
Chance regained, all the same
once you've played, the thought has stayed
and the Fire still remains.
Lyric Poems
When there is light, I fear the night
for there is always shadow.
When I can hear, I fear I am near
to things that must not be heard.
When I see your craft, I fear I am daft
for never could I make such a wonderful thing.
Though I am wise, I fear my demise
will be from my own blunder.
When I can speak, I fear I am weak
for I am just a pebble.
But pebble by pebble, I'll find my way
through the storm and through the fray
to find the truth hidden in the ruth that so stains our day.
Those I have lost are far from me
but through the clouds I can see
the calm gales awaiting the breeze.
My home is the wind, and my strife does end
at the touch of the breeze's embrace
and I find I was-
-I am -
-a pebble from a mighty mountain.
Odes
None can tell the story of Rain best without first beginning at the end. No end can be found, not while she still lives.
You must settle for decent. Best has not yet begun to test the lines.
So listen!
Rain, the Queen, is seen to have the wild! A disease not meant to be dealt with lightly. Her mother's story has risen to best; her death was all but necessary.
It began the Rain's! Beginnings and ends are closely tied, you see.
So pay attention!
Fire killed by fire. Irony, no? The names run close, but have different purposes. But Rain found the gray in the claws of the past! What a happy ending...
...but not so fast! It is only the beginning! Aha, it is but a jest, a jest. Do not become disinterested-it darkens from this point onwards. No more diddle daddle with ends and beginnings.
So stay close!
Seas are open and welcoming to a young heart's ambition, and it fuels the rain, after all. Mossy stars and red fur are certainly to blame. Yet so friendly, they seem.
Love given and not returned is a sad thing to witness. Fake love is hollow, but only once revealed. So Rain must give out a hollow heart to one whose fur burns with red. Like fire?
So it changes!
Shadows darken the edges at times. Can one ignore such hostile a shadow? Rain attempts, but fails. Hating love is hard to ignore, after all, even from one who has always hated those who loved.
So the shadow festers with jealousy for the reddened fur. So the shadow taints its fur with red--red blood, that is. Red blood from Rain?
So love shatters!
The Face of Rain is revealed at the shadow's leave, and the little ones come. Healthy and new, but of red fur. How now, can Rain ignore the hollow love? It grows more hollow, a piece missing.
Reddened fur is very close to fire-tempermental and harsh, at times. So Rain flees-only for now. The Sea is swallowing her, and she gasps for air, to find shadows waiting at the edges, now clear.
So sins commit!
Tainted fur now tainted blood. The fangs shatter in silence, but the claws dig deep. The fur of fiery red has gone-left the Face of Rain to weep silently.
Hollow love proves to be a trap that springs oh-so readily. Hating love proves to be a poison. What love is there left, now, when true (yet still hating) love is dead?
So hope is lost.
Ends and beginnings, all the same
life has been a miserable game
of love and hate
and tainted fate
of Rain.
Beginnings and ends, all are dear
to one whose beginning's end is near
storms that brew
perhaps life anew
for Rain.

I want a poem! D:
Style: Lyric please! : D
Character: Pebbleheart, BreezeClan deputy! C:
Story: Pebbleheart can be very calming, but worries over too much at times. She can lose her temper when it comes to battles and worries way too much about her kits and clan. However she follows the clan rules specifically and see's betrayal against BreezeClan very sickening and vile.
Pebbleheart was with her sister, Blossomkit at a very young age. Her father disappeared from an unknown accident while her mother was killed by a badger, ever since Pebbleheart has been scared of badgers. She then found BreezeClan and lived her life as a clan cat and trained as much as she can to prove to Galestar and BreezeClan that she is willing to fit in perfectly.
Additional Info: Hmm...nahh not really C: If you put anger in the poem then that will fit Pebbleheart since she can lose her temper just a tad. Can't wait to see your poems Timber!! : D

lee_is_me_96 What's the difference between all the different types of poems? ...D: I gave a description of each in the posts...Dx Ballad- short poem written with simple words and only tells of actions, not feelings. Lyric Poems- short poem similar to ballad, but they focus on emotions more. Still short, but a bit more descriptive. Ode- very detailed, descriptive poem involving both actions and emotions. Uses big words (sometimes, you can tell me not to if you want) and is longer than the other two.

I want a poem! D:
Style:
Lyric
Character:
Skywhisker, a warrior of Stormclan
Story:
SkywhisӃer was always the quiet Ӄit, she tended to sticӃ close to her mother. Her mother and father decided to name her SkyӃit.
Before her mother died. She had asked the leader, if she would name her dear snow-kit, SKywhisker. Her mother had said this.
"--star, please. I kjnow it's not normal. But please name my wonderful
snow-kit, Skywhisker. I am POSITIVE, that even when times are tough,
like the stars in the sky, she will feel Starclan from the tip of her tail to the ends of her whiskers..."
SkyӃit heard many stories of Brightheart, and dreamt of what it'd be liӃe to have met her, she listened in awe. Skywhisker's dad died a bit after she was born. And then her mom died while giving birth to Dawn(kit)paw, when Skywhisker was known as Skypaw. Skywhisker and Dawnpaw share the same mom, but have different dad's. SkywhisӃer absolutely adores Ӄits and hopes to have her own someday. She's usually cheerful and sweet, she's hardly ever angry, she'll only be angry if she has a good reason to be. And she is willing to do almost anything. If you can't find her looӃing at the Ӄits, she's probably hunting.
She is a very sweet and kind cat
PERSONALITY
SkywhisӃer a shy, thoughtful cat. She is a great friend and she is trustworthy, but she doesn't trust too easily.
SkywhisӃer is a dreamer, her mind may wander but she is a loyal clan cat at heart.
Additional Info:
nothing I can think of

I want a poem! : D
Style: Lyric! ^o^
Character: Mudnose, proud warrior of NightClan!
Story: Mudnose was born a pure-blood NightClan cat. She was born without the ability to feel pain, so she was generally reckless throughout her whole life. She grew up, obsessing about her epic fighting and hunting skills. This generally pushed a lot of cats away, but that didn't bother her. She got attacked by a dog and her tail got screwed up, but she didn't dwell on that fact for long. When she became a warrior, she developed a crush on Foxfur, and that has developed a lot.
Additional Info: Mudnose is a pretty cocky and reckless cat who taunts a lot of other cats.

I am of the wind sent then send do you taste? The world is all around us. I am of the paws flee no flaws can you sense? We are all one. ...okay that's a bit better. CC:
