This is a bit of a forum game, but at the same time it has the capacity to result in a bit of poetry, so it goes here. I'm going to supply a line of poetry, and the following poster is to create a poem using the line I gave as their first. Along with their poem, they supply a line for the next person to write poetry on. No restrictions on the type of line or poetry; just keep the line open ended.

Here's the first line:

A mountain pokes out awkward in the mist

Every heart is pure
Until the darkness comes
The rotting evil
It consumes all

The fire dances in the breeze

The fire dances in the breeze
killing all people
just like a disease

The fire gets very high
and everything that touches it
will die

Eventually the fire is gone
but when you see all what's left
it just feels wrong

While i'm dancing in the moonlight,
Everything is just right.
I'm with the girl of my dreams,
Things are what they seem.

I wish this night will continue forever,
This relationship will stop never.

While I'm dancing in the moonlight,
I see birds take flight,
South, South, always South,
Their white feathers shine in the night.

Tonight I dance with pleasure,
while the white birds fly,
South, as always South,
farewell white birds,goodbye.

Now fly before winter catches up,
you must fly faster than the seasons,
South, to a warmer place,
the birds fly away with grace.

See you again, when the flowers grow,
when trees regain their leaves,
when birds sing among the nature,
we will be there.

But there is hope...

But there is hope...
Yet to the north
Oh yes there is hope

Follow the star
And you shall...
Find what you seek

FREEDOM

Rouse thy self!
Thou lowly Peasants,
a new age has come!
free men we shall become!

Let us rise to a new standard,
we shall become aristocrats,
worthy people,
even bureaucrats!

When the knight takes his sword,
The world shudders.
Fearness strikes,
True power revealed.

It is raining out
Lightning flashes
The wind howls
Thunder echoes

Rain hammers the ground
Pouring from the skies
Ominous clouds rolling
Nature's fury unleashed

I like waffles,
I eat them in neat stacks,
I don't think they're awgful,
they make nice snacks!

With cream they taste delicious,
with maple syrup even more!
Don't forget the small strawberry,
or a cherry.

Waffles waffles,
yummy yum,
delicious waffles
are better than corn!

When darkness surrounds me,
It seems to dround me.
My vision is low,
Then I shout NO.

I soon drift off,
Then I hear a simple cough.
Was it a ghost,
Lets make the most.

When darkness surrounds me.

When will the pain stop and let death come in?
When you have stopped to contemplate and atone for all your sin.
Why is there suffering in this world, if there should be a God?
If there was no God here, then good is a facade.
The world is all there is; there can be nothing more.
If there is nothing to die for, what is there to live for?

The comfort of the darkness,
As it wraps itself around me.
Like a blanket,
Only it is everywhere, surrounding.

It is where I can relax,
Where I can feel peace.
I can throw off some troubles,
Of the real world at least.

kinda short, but I am out of time.
