Part I: How They Came

Have you ever wondered,

Have you ever heard

The story of the Legendary Three

Before they were legends

What made them legends?

.

The best of life has always come in three:

The Star, the Moon, and the Sun,

Day, Night, and Twilight between,

Anger, Joy, and Despair

To name a few.

And they stayed true to

This pattern of life.

The destiny of three born.

.

They were born in times of peace

A newborn peace –

How appropriate a time! –

In a period where life

Was moving on

As is its duty.

.

The first to appear

Was born in the heart of Spring,

A little girl

With rosette locks

And eyes as green as

The equally newborn sprouts

.

The second born came

In the midst of Summer,

To a renowned, old clan of a history

As dark as their features, save for their skin,

Hidden. The second born, the second prince

Of the clan head

.

The third and last to arrive

Saw the world for the first time

As the heat waned and leaves turned.

His secret Autumn birth brought

A short-lived joy, for it was the day

His new world collapsed

And he was to blame.


This is a long one, so I'll be publishing in nine parts (hint hint, the nine parts means something! Whoever gets it gets a prize), more or less of this same length.

I enjoy poetry, but I'm not terribly apt at writing it, so this is me trying my hand at it/ practicing.

Any feedback is welcome, because I'd like to improve my poetry. Not that I write a whole lot of it anyway… Anyway.

Hope you enjoyed!
