Poetry, by Virgil

[Chakha Malqir]

Hello everyone.

 

I recently posted some poetry to the Lantern and will continue to do so. But I thought I would post a thread here to both get feedback and perhaps some requests for certain pieces.

 

This is a piece I wrote, originally as a tribute to Limsa Lominsa, but have since expanded it to the entirety of the sea.

 

Fairest Llymlaen,

 

O, how Her dress doth sparkle

 

like a million sapphires

 

dancing vibrantly

 

in Her mother’s light.

 

Her crown of ivory reaches

 

towards the heavens

 

as She bathes in Azeyma’s radiance

 

embracing Her sweet mother

 

and bringing vibrance to the land.

 

Even were Azeyma to fall,

 

and were Menphina to rise,

 

our beloved Goddess

 

would continue to glimmer

 

in Her evening gown

 

strewn with polished Jet

 

She looks upon the world,

 

Her very essence breeding life

 

Her very dress enticing the hearts

 

Of any who seek to claim Her

 

O fairest Llymlaen,

 

You, who are the most beautiful of all,

 

Continue to dance for us, Your children,

 

As we dream of You always and forever.

 

 

I would appreciate any criticisms, questions, comments, or even requests!
