Beware the Alder, beware the Ash Those cunning woodland monsters. One is beautiful as Venus herself Her companion a Nosferatu. He is the cage and she the bait And what a lovely duo they make. Many a man hath followed her And reached a dishonorable death. So beware the maiden of marble skin Though she be as exquisite as the sun. For the sun blinds you from true Danger until your fate is done. |

For those who have read the stories of King Arthur or Phantastes, this will make a ton of sense.
For those who haven't...I guess it's still fun to read. 2 of 3 of the poems I wrote today. I like this one more than the first one. It was fun to write and it sort of rhymes at some points. |

 reports, 1d 22h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |

I didn't know that people still read it. It's my favourite book. I love your poem, by the way. There are some very ethereal images in there. It's very good.
