By candle-light I find my words
By candle-light they come.
Not in the deepest dark of night
Or burning light of sun.
...
Instead I write by candle-light
Something something... erm..
The flicker-flame of candlelight
Do bring my thoughts to form.
And so I write by candle-light
And seek the words to share
My joy and fears, my ...
My hope and my despair
By candle-light they come.
Not in the deepest dark of night
Or burning light of sun.
...
Instead I write by candle-light
Something something... erm..
The flicker-flame of candlelight
Do bring my thoughts to form.
And so I write by candle-light
And seek the words to share
My joy and fears, my ...
My hope and my despair
(I’ll edit this post as soon as I remember how that poem ends. Curse the Wayback Machine for being so unreliable.)
The reason for this thread
Apparently I have a lot of poems and parody songs running through my head that I want to post on the plaza, so it seems wise to have somewhere to index and collate them before they get out of hand!
Additionally, I want to help bring the singing back into Rohan to reflect its vocal history. I have various ideas of how to do that, and listing those ideas here (without too many spoilers) will help me remember to post them at the right time in the right thread.
This thread will be mostly for my own purposes, but by all means if it brings you joy then I am very happy to have entertained you!

A Disclaimer: Some of this content is me trying to remember songs and poems I wrote on the old plaza, and therefore a lot of these are incomplete while I try to recall exactly how they go. I figured if I post all the snippets somewhere it increases the likelihood I will piece them together into something whole... eventually.
