    He swiftly raced by without a passing glance
    Steady and strong, with a sure-fire stance.
    With large heavy paws pounding the Earth,
    Just the sight him fills one with mirth.

    His fur was black and had eyes of gold
    He's been in legends and tales of old.
    For he is a wolf, no other compares,
    No one competes, not even the Weres.

    Fear will strike the hearts of all
    When battling demons, he makes them fall.
    He knows no fear, and feels no pain
    Though the weight of his heart, is an ongoing strain.​



    Again: comments, critisizmz, and rates are welcome. Enjoy! ^_~

    not in the least kelsey! i like it a lot! don't take it that way! :surprised
     
    I didn't mean to sound like I did! ^^;;; I shouldn't expect ALL my poems to be wonderful, if you don't like it, tell me then, Matt. ^_^

    meh, I think its best to be honest(I know I would like an honest opinion of my poetry). So thats just what I'll give you. Based on the poems I've seen here by you, I think you could have done much better on this. IMO this is a difficult premise to write on, so that may have been part of it. Also its a little too straightforward for my tastes, if you tell the reader everything then you make it less enjoyable, but if you leave some things un-said then it makes it more interesting. Like my creative writng teacher told me:Its not so much what you say, it what you don't say. yeah that was a paraphrase, but eh Im sure you can catch the point.
     
    You're right, Finglonger. I shall take out the explanation then, to make it more enjoyable. Thanks for da comment! ^^

    @finglonger: i more than respect your outlook on the works of others, but did you even say anything positive about her poem? if she changes it all, it wouldn't be the same poem she started with! i understand you being honest because i am quite brutally honest most of the time myself, but can you say anything positive?
    P.S. no hard feelings okay?
     
    ^_^ Don't wory about it Matt, if I always got positive comments, it would all go straight to my head. ^^;;

    ~Kelsey
     
    i understand that, but can you see what i'm saying?
    *mumbles and later comes back wagging his tail.*
     
    I can see that, and thanks for saying it. ^^ But I do want the truth, remember, no lies allowed. XD
    *races up to Matt, wagging her tail and jumping up and down*

    @finglonger and kelsey: sorry i guess i'm really defensive when it comes to you kelsey... and finglonger, sorry i get hotheaded quick so don't take my anger seriously cuz i clam down five minutes later anyway.
     
    oh ok, apology accepted I guess. And the way I always rate poems is by telling people the things they did wrong, if I told them what they did right how could they improve their writing?

    In this case I didn't think it was her best work and I told her why. I didn't do it to be mean or spiteful I did it so that she could make this better. Basically my point is, why would you merely tell somebody how great it is without giveing them something to improve upon? Sure, telling someone they wrote something nice makes then feel good, but beyond that it does nothing.
     
    That is very true, Finglonger, and I thank you for your suggestions on improvement. I shall keep them in mind when writing more poems. ^^

    yeah well, i see your point, but like a little bit of both. saying what's good and saying what could be improved...
     
    yeah youre right praise is an important part too. In the future I'll try to include both critcisms as well as parts I enjoyed reading. = )
     
    I really liked it... it could be a little better, but it's still pretty good.
     
    I like it.It's really nice.Dang I wish I could figure out how to use such good words too.My mom would faint if she saw me using words like mirth.
