 You clicked it! Hooray! Mwah~ Now, let's read a little story... Once upon a time a little girl named Boo made a poem shop. People from the guild decided to give her a chance and allowed her to create a poem of their cat(s)! Many people were satisfied. One day, Boo decided to do it again! But why?
Well, before she went on break, her teacher told her that they were going to start poetry when they got back. Boo made a note about it and went on break. A week later, Boo had almost forgotten what her teacher had told her. A few days later, she came across the note she had written!
Now, Boo started to get excited. Poetry is her favorite form of literature and she loves doing the projects. Thing is, she hadn't written much poetry in a while and felt that her skills were getting rusty. And thus, the idea to reopen her shop came to her! Boo decided that it was the best way to touch up on her skills AND provide people with nice little poems about their cats. How amazing!If you haven't figured it out yet, I'm Boo. c: So yes! I'm recreating my Cat Poem shop for the purpose of dedication to the guild and working on my poetry skills! Fun fun.

If you've been to my first one, you'll know that I have certain styles that I'm best at. I know that going out of my comfort zone would help, but I don't want to. That's why I'm listing the ones I'm good at. ^^ "Haiku" is a traditional form of Japanese poetry. Haiku poems consist of 3 lines. The first and last lines of a Haiku have 5 syllables and the middle line has 7 syllables. The lines rarely rhyme. Some (English) forms of haikus include more than one stanza. Of course, they still follow the 5-7-5 pattern. There are many different kinds of rhyming poetry. The ones I will be doing are: Sonnets - Sonnets are a form of poetry that was created during the renaissance. Sonnets consist of 14 lines; three, four line stanzas accompanied by a two line closing stanza. The rhyming scheme for a sonnet is: abab cdcd efef gg Limericks - A limerick is a silly poem with five lines. They are often funny or nonsensical. The first, second and fifth lines rhyme with each other and have the same number of syllables (typically 8 or 9). The third and fourth lines rhyme with each other and have the same number of syllables (typically 5 or 6). Limericks often start with the line "There once was a..." or "There was a..." An acrostic poem has a topic idea running down the left side of the poem. Each letter in the topic word has a new thought that runs off the side from left to right and is relevant to the topic word. They rarely rhyme. It is a type of poetry that has no set pattern or style. It can have as many stanzas, lines, or patterns as the writer chooses. A diamante poem is in the similar shape of a diamond. (Hence it's name.) It does not have to rhyme, but each line uses specific types of words. It can be about one topic or two opposite topics. Format: Topic 1
2 adjectives describing Topic 1
3 -ing words about Topic 1
4 nouns or a short phrase linking Topics 1&2
3 -ing words about Topic 2
2 adjectives describing Topic 2
Topic 2

Before, I didn't charge. You shouldn't have to pay me for my work. But, given the fact that school is going to start up again soon it'll take some more effort on my part to fufill your wishes.
I'm charging a simple 100g per poem. ^^
That's not too bad, right? I don't really use my gold but I do use it to donate to Gaian causes. (Guilds and contests and such. ;3)
Tips are up to you. I'll accept them, but if they're like, a GAJILLION gold then I won't accept them. That's WAY too much. You're kindness is appreciated though! ^^
When ordering, please use these forms. It'll make my job much easier. ;3[quote="Timecraze"][/quote]

Colorless Sky
My world is black and grey
The sun has set tonight
Farewell, bright light of day
And welcome, dear moonlight
I paint my world in shades
Of black and brown and white
The rest of the world just fades
Away from my troubled sight
I look up at the sky I painted,
A bland and colorless vision
My first view of it, so tainted
"Brighten it," was my decision
Up above is a sky so colorless
That I almost expect much less.
There you go. ^^
Kinda locked myself out on the last verse. Hope it's okay. ^^"

Heart with a Halo
A heart has a halo!
(At least in this pure kit.)
xxxxxxxx Nothing that a lot of cats have.
See it glowing brightly?
It's usally those with blind eyes that fail.
xxxxxxxx It's not the case here.
Don't you see the purity?
All that glitters isn't gold.
Yes, that we know.
xxxxxxxx But what of a heart of silver?
Gold isn't first place.
Neither is silver.
They're just here to make the world brighter.
xxxxxxxx A heart with a halo,
Such an angelic kitten
Such a pure kitten!

I AM THESTLE And here's my order... Cat Name: Whisperwind
Cat's Clan: StormClan
Cat Personality: A quiet, silent cat, she prefers to never speak and is quite insecure about herself, she takes on a tiny bit of an emo personality, but if you open up to her, she'll do the same for you. She has seen alot in her life, she's lived throughout the Series, she has a hatred towards mean cats, she never says anything bad though, finding it rude. But if you do manage to catch one of her tiny whispers, she will become very shy and try to avoid you alot more.
Cat History: Whisperwind had a good life, although as a kit, she had noone, she was raised by a Queen in her first few moons, playing with siblings of hers that weren't actually siblings. She was adopted as her Mother died from the birthing process, she was so lively and active, until the Queen and her adopted kits died from an attack, the kits dieing from greencough, the Queen, and a few of them from the attack. Whisperwind lived although, being protected by a cat from the other clan, the raid was from NightClan, and as it slowly unraveled she found out it had been Ravenwing, Ravenstar when she died, who had protected her.
Whisperwind then became an Apprentice, thats when fighting erupted, the flowers of death came, and after it passed, she grew a fondness towards a cat named Nettleslash, becoming very good friends at that time, the two cats didn't trust easily, and were alot alike. She could be honest about anything with him. He gave her a secret, which she promised to keep above all, she found out he was slightly infected still, with the madness, and when he got upset, he was dangerous. Although he never lashed out at Whisperwind.
Whisperwind then was received a Mentor, who she looked at with love and affection, like a Mother to her, sometimes when she speaks to her old Mentor she'll slip up and say 'Mother' when she's speaking, the two cat's aren't particularly close, but Whisperwind has a strong feeling toward her old Mentor, a feeling of protecting her above all, since she was so independent, never having anybody to trust, she found this in her Old Mentor and Nettleslash.
Nettleslash disappeared, she hadn't noticed this for awhile, but soon got over it, although she does think about him every once and awhile, she has now become a Warrior, finding friendship in a few cats such as Featherheart, Dawnsky, and Rustdawn, although she's still awkward around them, she tries to be as nice as she can, not wanting to hurt the cat's feelings, she's very insecure, shy, and quiet, which causes problems when she speaks to them.
Poem Style: Sonnets
Poem Title: Silent Winds
