A wizard sits at the highest mountain top His life so peaceful, there no one can bring a harmful bop He lives in peace with nature in one Never to be disturbed his reasons on earth none to find fun
His purpose in life may seem like a simple task Sent down by the god of nature to keep earth intact For humans for decades unknowing of this Destroying earth for they to turn there homes into the abyss
Cutting the trees to make to many homes Blowing holes in mountains use the concrete for domes Throwing there armor, useless cannons to the water Enemies Burning each others crop fields yet theres never a bother
For each time the earth is harmed The wizard to use his magic all to witch he is armed To regrow the trees, the burnt out crops To refill the holes of the mountains, hes always refilling yet still so willing For the humans now knowing of something thats always refilling
For word of the wizard has reached the castle Scared by his power lets destroy this dazzle For he will condemn us the king so sure of this Well now I guess its time to catch us a fiery fish
The wizard sits and waits his demise For he has seen this already no plan to devise All he wanted was to live in peace The pesents and knights offered to much gold now they will never cease
A wizard sits his head in a jar The king pleased as he sits and drinks at his bar The god of nature watched as his humble servant failed His life gone to the unworthy that prevailed His duty un fulfilled the time now has come
For Armageddon has come let the acid rain drops fall For Armageddon has come let the asteroids fall For Armageddon has come Let the flood raise drown them all For nature has gotten the better of them We need to take care of nature so we never to be condemned

I agree; the rhyme makes it awkward.
Couple of suggestions:
1. Perhaps take the rhyme away completely?
2. Read it alowd, with some sort of rythem. While doing this, think of what words you could ad/delete to make the poem flow better.
Also, make sure that the story/message of the piece remains clear. Keep it in one person; first, second, or third (I, you, or he/she/it.)
I really like the story, though. It is a good & creative idea. :-) It would be a shame not to work on it; it could be something truely great!
Please don't be discouraged :-) You ought to see the crap some of my poems were until I edited the hell out of them.
Oh, and if you'd like any one-on-one help, feel free to e-mail/IM me. Ciao~ |
