The Grand Tour!

Ye traveler with a slight hint of skill,
Details of this place I will indeed fill,
As we explore these numerous places,
Perhaps I'll introduce these kind faces.

Here we enter the Domain of Arcade,
Where my old friend Serac lives in and rules,
He's an awesome fellow, a man self-made,
The Enforcer of Fate that fixes fools.

Let us move away from all these high scores,
That neither you or I will ever beat,
So let us go down to the other floors,
And I believe we need a bite to eat!

Welcome to our precious Little Cafe,
Where all sorts of random stuff gets posted,
Look, it's Phonograph grabbing a Latte,
He's a neat fellow... ooh, Almond Roasted!

How's your tea? Oh look, we're in poetry,
That one there is my favorite poet-
Corneac and Lubesh chatting without me!?
They know I hate that, they really know it!

Welcome to the top of this splendid place,
This is where administrators reside,
Jirquest on his throne, Syrah's red face,
Lubesh as well, but we have seen that side!

This chamber is the great musician's room,
Duncan is the name they him around here,
Remain silent now, else we face our doom,
Let us listen, put your hand to your ear...

Enjoy your tour of Storiesmania?
Do that which is best and aim for grandeur!
But let's avoid megalomania,
Unless you wish to call down force majeure!

Re: The Grand Tour!

My thanks! I thought my first real poem on this site should be a good original one! I'm glad you've enjoyed it!

Re: The Grand Tour!

Nicely done!

This line has an issue, but I wasn't sure what. You can fix it.

HA! My land, indeed. You're too much, man.

This poem rules with a vengeance. Yeah, I said poem and rules in the same sentence. You earned it, man.

To be honest, neither do I. (At least, it's not pronounced consistently even within my own family). But it is first initial, last name, if that helps...

If you're happy with it, that's fine. It still doesn't scan right for me. I may just be missing it, but it feels like a word is missing (like between "they" and "him").

Re: The Grand Tour!

I may as well put this in the running poetry, glad you all like it! And again my most sincere apoligies to those who aren't mentioned, either I'm on at funny times (Which I commonly am) or I just rarely talk to you, or jnabonne's case, there's a problem with my accent and I can't pronouce it. So I just copy and stick this into the running poetry...?

Re: The Grand Tour!

Why thank you! An Ode to a Traveler it is! Made to show the newcomers around, and made to show my respects to those who've been here and still strive to make it a better place... or in Serac's case, strive to cause me anger because his highscores are so... unbeatable! No worries mate, my respect for you remains untarnished!
