POEMS
Every poem in this segment was written by Atlantis last year for her English class. She really isn't responsible for anything offensive.
"Bob, the Very Angry Wizard"
This is the story of Bob, the Very Angry Wizard,
And of a ferret, a knight, and Bobs pet lizard.
Bob was angry at the royal family for a past something,
So he decided to send a little gift to the king.
When the king got his gift, he said, "He, HE! What did I get?!"
As he opened the box, out popped Bobs extremely odd ferret.
We wont discuss what the ferret did to those in the crowd.
"I get that rascal, that wizard Bob," the king vowed.
So the king sent a knight to drag Bob to the castle by his pointy ears.
Unfortunately, Bob had had a few too many celebratory beers.
Bob was so inebriated that the knight caught him with ease.
Then Bob said, "May I go get me pet, pretty please?"
Bob ran to get his lizard, which was really a dragon.
The dragon ate the knight, while Bob drank from a flagon.
You see, Bob had made a critical mistake.
There is only so much a dragon can take.
The dragon was hungry, and he wasnt free.
He went over to Bob and said, "You listen to me!"
"I have taken way too much of your crap,
Im taking you to the king, now go fetch me a map!"
When they reached the king, Bob got more than a spanking.
The dragon was fed and got a good thanking.
The dragon left with the ferret, they went far away.
They were finally free, which is something Bob cant say.
"Centaurs"
Centaurs are interesting creatures,
with both man and horse features.
The centaurs lives in times nocturnal,
and their strange way of life is eternal.
With you, centaurs will rarely concur.
They never give you a straight answer.
Those centaurs, they always look to the sky
before they give you a puzzling reply
Ask them a question about your plight,
and all youll get is, "Mars is bright tonight
"
Or, "Theres a ring around Saturn
"
And theyll walk silently away with a turn.
They rarely become involved in a human affair,
so if you're looking for help, search elsewhere.
Oh yes, the centaur is an odd beast,
But they never are boring, to say the least.
"The Great Harry Potter"
Great Harry Potter
enchants and excites readers
and makes them believe
"Magic"
A childs laughter
Springs first flower
The phrase happily ever after
A summer rain shower
A single cloud drifting by
A wonderful book
Mountains trying to touch the sky
Magic is everywhere you look
"Magic - The Other Kind"
Whispers of charms
A first wand
A spell that disarms
A black robed donned
Becoming an animagus
Rides on broomsticks
Trips on The Knight Bus
Scientific opinion this magic contradicts
"Sir Cadogan, the Brave Knight"
Arr, thats right, ye scoundrel, stand up and fight!
You can never beat Sir Cadogan, the Brave Knight!
So you're the son of a noble, you big ugly brute?
Ive heard tales about you, you rich fancy snoot!
If youre lucky our duel will be rather fast,
and, I can assure you, it will be your last.
Ive got weapons of evry kind and make.
Ill let you have one of mine, which one will you take?
Aye, Im in no hurry to start this duel,
Ill just sit here and wait while you get off your mule.
Well, you certainly took your sweet time,
Did you have a lovely 20 step climb?
Oh, just here to chat, is that what you say?
Then why, pray tell, are you inching away?
Aye, thats right, run for yer life!
Cause if ya dont, youll be eating me knife!
He he! That was a great joke,
Too bad he was such a thick - headed bloke.
Oh yes, Im Sir Cadogan, the Brave Knight!
Unfortunately, Ive never won but one fight!
"The Sword Fight"
Two young knights stand in dim light,
each polishing his sword.
They are preparing for the fight.
They start without a word.
Each uses the skills he strived to learn,
One stabbing, one jabbing, one thrusting,
attacking and blocking in turn.
And in their skills both men are trusting.
The sounds of the fight echo off the walls,
the sounds of metal and of trials.
These sounds, they travel quickly down the halls.
The news of this fight will travel for miles.
These two have fought from pagedom, then, as squires.
Now as knights they fight as foes.
But wait! The challenger now begins to tire.
Yet the other ones still without his woes!
One mistake, the weak one stumbles.
With one move, the fight is won.
To the body, the victor mumbles,
"Look what time hath done
"
He pauses, then starts after a sigh.
"We shall not fight for many years more."
The victor stands and lets out a cry.
Then he turns his back and walks out the door.
"Protector"
An old man in an
odd robe points his wand, screaming,
"Hey! Get off my lawn!"
"Through the Night"
Lucreza Ryoko Washuu McGonagall
Here is an explaination in her own words: I know this doesn't sound like a Harry Potter poem as it doesn't mention any characters, but it is. It mostly about everything - Harry likin' Cho, Harry and his scar, Harry and his dead parents, Harry and his friends, Harry and his family, you get it right?
Don't make fun of it,
Don't destroy it,
Don't cheapen it.
That one special thing that everyone has.
My love, my dream, and you.
I won't let those go no matter what.
On those nights when you can't settle down no matter what you do
You feel like throwing it all away.
Don't say a word, just open the door,
I don't have time to quibble with you.
I wanna fly all over the place,
I wanna throw caution to the wind!
I haven't lost anything,
I haven't evn started yet.
Don't make fun of it,
Don't destroy it,
Don't cheapen it.
That one special thing that everyone has.
My love, my dream, and you.
I won't let those go no matter what.
Whatta ya want?
What do ya wanna do?
Where do you want to go?
Grab what you want and rip through the dark as you run Through the
Night!
I was off my guard towards your kindness,
But I was frightened at times
I did whatever I wanted to do
But I prefer your heart.
I believe, I want to believe, I want to distinguish between black &
white.
It's not only intensity, it's not only kindness--so
Don't make fun of it,
Don't destroy it,
Don't cheapen it.
Who do you want to embrace?
I think you know.
Only love,
Only dreams,
only you.
I can't even protect it. I have to start moving.
Even if I am hurt, even if I hurt you, even if I make a detour.
As you please, as I tumble, run Through the Night!
Don't make fun of it,
Don't destroy it,
Don't cheapen it.
That one special thing everyone has.
My love,
My dream,
and you.
I won't let those go no matter what
Embracing, hurting, losing
Everyone realizes those precious things,
At any rate, promises, restraints.
Whatta ya want?
What do ya wanna do?
Where do you want to go?
Grab what you want and rip through the dark as you run Through the
Night!
The Duel
Orania Rose
Two wizards stand in a darkened room
Silence fills the air.
Two wands are raised
A few words are wispered.
The spells have been cast.
The duel is over.
One remains standing.
