A tiny tidbit for the Forward to my work in progress series that documents every known flower on Nirn. The project is trudging along at a snail's-pace but I cranked this out pretty fast.
I'm not one for lymrics or rhyme schemes so you'll have to excuse my ignorance to the subtleties of Poetry.
The first Verse is an ABAB rhyme sceme and the whole thing is some wierd bastard Pentamiter of somesort (like 7686 or something wierd).
The second verse get even funkier.
it goes. ABCABC and is 446446.
I guess the second verse could also be read as:
anyway, comments?
Good? Bad? Ugly? I dont know, help me out.

Quote:To my mothers skirt I cling,
Far flows my emerald gown
And on my crown there sits this thing
For hue it is renowned.
Nirn?s gift I am
Handmaid to soil
I dance in gentle breeze.
And by thy hand
Through tireless toil
I blossom just for thee.

Quote:Nirns gift I am, handmaid to soil,It seems, now that I think about it, this second way of wrighting it is probably better because the # of lines is the same.
I dance in gentle breeze.
And by thy hand, through tireless toil,
I blossom just for thee
anyway, comments?
Good? Bad? Ugly? I dont know, help me out.
