Elf's Tale

For a poetry submission. Apparently Microsoft Word hates Old English o_O

Thou art to tell you, the tale of ye elves

Whom art the bane of selfish, thinking of themselves

Magical creatures subdue, art thou mine friend?

Shalt you be thine enemy, 'til the very end

Thou shalt not guess, this elf, what he hath done

Weaving his magicks everything, shant it be such fun?

Poverty struck thine friend, he fell unto dark

Every person thinking "Thou art such a snark."

Selfish means overtake ye, you do not what you want

Treachery falls upon thine who takes treasure hunt

Infinite is the sentence thou hast served

Hast thou done the elf's deed, been unnerved?

Pass't unto thine slavery of a crooked's mind?

For thou art illogic if done so wrong

Magicks caused ending of elf's brute song

I feel weird being in Spanish, writing Old English

Aside from yours and mine in the poetry challenge contest, none of the other "contestants" seem to have read the rules. Yours is the only other I have read that has been olde English, rhymed, and contained any of the required words. As well as having been the correct length. But, aside from that, I do like your poem. It's an interesting tale told all things considered.

Oh, not to be rude but I believe on your 5th line it should be hath and not has for the olde English terminology. I am actually using yours to correct the few mistakes I made too. heh :D

Word hates pretty much everything, i've noticed. And i really did like this. I have a hard time writing in old English (I have a pirate character that makes me mad sometimes) so I know I could never write this. I honestly clicked on this because of the name, and I'm glad i did.

I love this. You are so intelligent to be able to talk like that in this day and time. It made me feel like I was in the woods with an old man telling me a story. :) I liked this a lot. I thought about doing some written-fantasy pieces, myself. You've deff. inspired me to do so, soon! :D
