EXAMPLES

These are all FR related, however I'm happy to have a go at anything you want.
Diamond
In the void between the stars,
among the Arcanist's avatars,
he swam between glowing comet trails;
all fiery eyes and lightning tail.
Across the universe, he swept,
until he fell to Sornieth.
Down, down, down, and there he slept.

After the dark, the dreams came.
Vein-like, flowing as roots, a flame
in liquid earth. Between shattered glass
and shifting shadows upon the grass
the thoughts took form:
a sanctuary for the Arcane
to shelter from the growing storm.

The world opened, and he dreamed
waterfalls and opalescent streams
dashing out to sea; and more:
sleeping forests of before
the ancients came.
He found the world was changed,
and still the same.

Moonage
When moon rises, sleep not,
but come into the dark and see
what dances in the night, through stars,
and glides across a pitch-black sea.
Thunder follows where he goes;
wings flashing in the silver light.
A manic streak of icy fire
sleepless and keen, he hunts the night.

Eithne
Dawn rises,
and grey light fades to pink.
Fresh-yellow, bright blue,
drawn in watered ink
traced by a claw,
tongue held tight in teeth.
Eithne records in pastel,
every movement beneath
watched through violet eyes,
reflecting the sweetness of the sky.

Morning blooms,
she rests, sleeps late.
Her chamber sings with mountains
captured in chalk and paint.

@Pigwidgeon This looks really neat and I've honestly been wanting to try to support writers more.

Is there a limit to how many poems we can request for at a time?

@FairyoftheMoon Nope, no limit. Can't see myself being inundated so for the moment, so have at it and I'll do my best! :)

Hello! I would like a poem about a benevolent dragon please! It would be best if the poem had a mix of rhyming and had about 15 lines. Thank you very much!

He's just a very kind nature spirit that enjoys caring for animals and specifically familiars, he's the one that cares after our bestiary.

Thank you! :)
[if you need more info I am happy to provide it]

@Pigwidgeon Okay so like... would five be okay?

I have some dragon inspired god characters that I would love to have poems for. All are very flexible in how they look and personalities have some wiggle room. I'll leave links that will lead to pictures of them and each should have a small amount of info as well.

Water | Fire | Aether | Earth | Air

If there's any questions you have let me know? Especially since the last one doesn't have as much info. As for lines and all, I'm really open to anything. I don't think I have a specific type of poem I like since it's one area of literature I haven't delved deep into outside of school.

@Thysteria
How's this?
Quote:
In every tiny seed and leaf,
within the roots of every tree,
beyond the reach of mere belief,
transcending what is heard and seen,
a sentinel in forest green.

A band of creatures smell the rain,
and flock to shelter in the glade.
Roots and branches pulse like veins
to warm the air where glasswings play
among the rose and violet shade.

Sunlight fades, and blossoms lift
to raise their heads and watch him pass.
A woodsmoke trace his lasting gift,
left in imprints on the grass:
strong as roots, fragile as glass.

These secrets live in dappled light,
in the path of Akyr's flight.
