Yes, I did say I was writing a poem, but when school started way back in September, it was only halfway finished, and very long (seventy lines!
I've bitten off more than I can chew). I admit that I forgot about it for some time, and it was too long to get finished in the deadline rush. I'm planning on getting the poem in the next contest.
Great poems, everyone. I see that
TGWBS has labelled his poem as Part One. A good way to turn a long poem into a series of shorter ones.
Enca has done an excellent job translating an English text, and works around some tricky wordings in a way that still keeps the meaning of the original words.
And
dancing spawn's poem is concise and pleasant, and expresses well the melancholy elves always seem to get eventually.
