My very first poem I ever wrote, believe it or not.

In the mist I see a shadow
Its size is big and brave
I see a tiny weakling
Though he may be hard to save

The shadow holds a dark secret to kill
I see it in his eyes
Tiny horrors raising rapidly
The weakling is about to die

The weakling shivers
He senses fear
He does not know of the dark shadow
The werakling tried to sense what is near

The shadow raises its deadlt blade
I see the weakling is afraid
He runs into the meadow as the shadow follows
The shadow is about to take his life

The weakling could only make it a few feet
What an easy slaying for the shadow
He runs, until they meet
The weakling has not a chance

The shadow's blade swings
It went fast
Like many things
There was a bit of a pause for a moment

I look into the great dark mist
There is still the weakling for the shadow missed
The shadow shows great agony
For the weakling dodged
Just like me

wow, this is really cool! I like that kind of vague feel it has. A bit spooky too. And of course, the IMAGERY!!!
Very nice work.

I think it's really good too. And I'm picky about poetry.

:-) Brian 'Dulcet' Bergstrom replies: "Thanks Mandy!! ^_^"

It's wonderful, a bit like a tale within itself, the different stages. I'm impressed, you obviously worked on it, and thought carefully, and it worked out well, which is an even bigger bonus. *grins* Just write more

:-) Brian 'Dulcet' Bergstrom replies: "Ok, it seems I write better with little effort. I wrote this poem, my first, out of the air. But thanks."

Woah. I'm all like, aw, poor weakling, but the weakling isn't so weak.. because he kept trying and in the end, he won against the dark shadow. I like this a lot. It's really a great poem.

*insert horrible transformation into the Editor, accompanied by a dramatic minor chord*

TYPO TIME! *celebrates in a typo bloodfest*

The *werakling* tried to sense what is near

The shadow raises its *deadlt* blade

Nice twist at the end.

I like this, and it is hard to believe it is your first poem. The only thing I think you could improve on is to use more poetic devices (e.g. similie, ryhme scheme, metaphor, etc.). But this is a really great poem!
