I love fantasy poems and this was my first try as far as elves go.

The full moon hangs in the dark sky Lighting my unknown path Wind grows strong sweeping past many trees Blowing away autumn's last leaves My dark hair streams past my face The cold inside me, I feel its embrace I spot him glowing in the distance The moons halo reflects his resilient skin Standing quiet and tall My heart flutters at his call I walk forward feeling the damp grass beneath my bare feet The taste of his smile remains sweet His hand reaches out for mine I place my tiny hands within his grasp He draws me close, very near His fluent elvish voice is all I hear His words remain fresh upon my lips Running down my spine and through my finger tips For he is an Elf and I, Human Two beings brought together underneath the stars Forgetting our differences, embracing love Our fate rests in the skies above Holding me close, almost one Breathing him in smells of earth and sun Streams of blonde hair caress my skin Wind flows stronger now I feel the smoothness of his lips Breathing inside each other The warmth of his body radiates within me His soft voice whispers past my ears: "I've traveled many distances to be here. To hear your voice, to see your face. Ten thousand angels could not break my stare. I give you this ring, made of silver, oh maiden of fair. Handcrafted by elves of long ago It is of strength, it is of life. But most of all, love, and so I ask you to be my mortal wife." "I want you as I will always. I shall love you until the end of our days. I am no longer eternal. I shall age the same as you. Together we will remain. My facade will change, no longer shall youth sustain." Tears follow the curves of my face "The ring I accept. For I shall wear it proudly! Together we shall fly. Living out our dreams in an ever radiant sky!" |
