Username (IGN): Sjofin RP Name: Melody Quintin Name of your poem: The Eyes (PS: This is supposed to follow the something wicked comes this way theme) Poem:
I hear a whisper at the door
If it was a Gryff you would hear them Roar
What could be happening at this time?
Little did I know soon trouble would be mine.
I went to see who it was whispering
My eyes caught something slithering
A wicked snake looked at me
A look so searing it stung like a bee
The snake went away
My thoughts swirled
All I knew was that something wicked comes this way
I knew it was from another world
Darkness spun in the skies
Looking back at you with glaring eyes
A chill ran down my spine
Darkness wanted me to lose my mind
I ran for help, running as fast as could
Running so fast I ran into someone
I told them what was happening…
But I misunderstood.
The person in the long cloak stood tall
A wand pointed in my face
I heard as I felt my mind erase
“Gone is the world…all in all”

Theme: Flying High
Above all
High above the clouds he rests,
Flying high above all, careful lest
he slip and fall, fall, fall all the way down
down to the ground.
Each student turns to no more than an ant,
He flies, the wind in his hair, his mind in a trance.
His broom becomes a part of him, and he wanders.
Wanders on the broom thinking about the end.
Thoughts streak through his mind,
Some of them dark and others kind.
He whispered to his broom “Take me,
take me to a place where I have never been.”
And that it did. Down it soared.
For a moment he thought it was the end, dear lord.
Down he spun, out of the cotton candy clouds and down
down past the trees and around the thick swirly foliage.
In a wisp of wind he was somewhere he had never been.
He was at the mouth of a cave, somewhere unseen.
He took a breath and laid down on the stone.
And on that stone he fell asleep for the last time.
