My Wood Elf Writes: The Creation Story

Hi everyone. Hopefully this forum is the right spot for this. I'm working on a collection of poetry written by my Wood Elf character. Here is a recent poem describing the creation story. She intends for it to be read to every Bosmer child before bed -- that's why it has a very obvious reminder in the final couplet. Hope you enjoy.

The Spinner's Tale - By Solanacaea of Deepwoods

Thrashing creatures: formless tangled crying
Impatient for their absent orator;
“Skyward!” saplings’ leaves yearn to be rising.
“Y’ffre, spin a story for your Bosmer!”

Then our Spinner spun, and the first tale done
The Green had grown, wee and towering both;
From shore to peak, Nirn grew beneath the sun
And the rain, to spite the Trickster Lorkhan.

Then our Spinner spun the second story:
We twisted no more amongst the creatures;
Presented to The Green laudatorily,
Forever sworn to embrace her strictures!

For elves young and old, if Pact they refuse
Forever they’re cast back in The Ooze!

    Love it, @T0M_R3V3N! A cracking poem. I wish I could write like that.

    Heavy-bearded Y’ffre, speak through me. Tell us of the time before time. Let the story grow in me. Let my heart echo to the pounding of your feet along the story-lines, the bones of the world. I will walk Your steps, and know Your story.
