User blog:Detective Kain/Winter Poetry Contest

In the spirit of the holidays and the coming winter season, I'm holding a little well not really a contest, but a friendly competition of sorts! Write your best winter poem in the comments below. It doesn't have to be anything RWBY related, though, creativity points are granted if they are. Just to kind of get the ball rolling, I'll go ahead and add my own winter poem to this as a little example:

The Winter War

Snow is falling in crystallized flakes,

The white blanket grows thicker,

But provides no warmth.

A horn sounds in the distance,

The ring of steel on steel resonates,

From swords held in hands of ice.

Valor sheds blood,

Soaking the blanket with crimson fluid,

Melting away, but the snow keeps falling.

The struggles of man are in vain.

The white blanket thickens evermore,

Winter is coming.

Note: The poem does not have to follow a rthym scheme, blank verses are just fine. At the end of winter, I'll post the winners in a separate blog, be sure to give the ones you like kudos, I'll narrow it down to the final three with the most kudos, and then whoever wins that gets all the bragging rights!

Happy Holidays,

Kain.
