Things You Need to Know Before You Start:
1. I am not a professional poet
2. I do not claim to be good at poetry (refer to number 1)
3. I take inspiration from poets that I know. I do not plagiarize any of their work for it is against the copyright laws and it is just a dishonest thing to do. I take merely inspiration.
4. Be civil when reviewing (if you choose to do so). If I get something wrong (which I most likely will) with poetic devices or there's just a bad poem then be civil. Don't bash and be hateful. Be constructive and supportive. That's what you're supposed to do.
5. I shall treat this as if Reepicheep were writing this story. It's from his POV.
6. I have given Reepicheep two extra initials, H.D. which stands for Hartwin Darren. Hartwin derives from German is it translates to "brave friend" and Daren is a made up word that means"writer" so these two names mean: brave friend who writes. These two initials will not be enforced and is just for formality purposes and is part of my characterization of the character. For example, whenever Reepicheep tells of his history he will include these names but will not answer to them in conversation. I'm just letting you know what they mean.
7. Have fun! :)
A Book of Poetry
by Reepicheep H.D.
This Dear Fellows Is a Story
This dear fellows,
A story of no time
Nor place.
Deals with valor,
Glory,
Regret and Pride,
Of a mouse
Who's name is surely mine.
So come on,
Be merry,
Go on,
Say so.
This tale is long
Just like mine whiskers,
So sit and relax
And summon your spinsters.
Relieve them of duty,
Pay them handsomely for time.
For it is a new age,
Let us begin with mine.
