So... hey.

It's been a while. I know, I know. I planned on updating this thing every day. But, you know, stuff happens. Anyways, I'm back, or at least for the time being. And, to celebrate my return, I'll make you suffer by reading another one of my poems! Yayz! No, but seriously. This one's not about dancing cats. This is an untitled credo. Here's a link in case you haven't heard of it before:

Yeah, so, basically, a credo, in poetry, is a free-verse poem stating your beliefs. I'd like to share the one I wrote. Without further ado:

I believe in the grey line,
The power of greed,
The strength of innocence,
The rage of time,
The mood of Earth,
Wind, Water, Fire.
But Tamora Pierce's books
Should be burned in a bonfire.
I believe in never giving up.
I believe in chasing your dreams.
I believe in preserving Nature,
Wisdom, Knowledge, Courage.
And I believe in free and expressing
The soul and the mind through art.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now, I'd really like to get your feedback on this. Do you agree with what I said? Disagree? Why? Also, for anyone and anyone who wishes to accept, I issue a challenge:

Write your own Credo. Make it true to you. Post it in a comment. Here's the template:

I believe -
The -
The -
The -
The -
- , - , - .
But -
-
I believe in -
I believe in -
I believe in -
-, -, -.
And I believe - (Longest)

If you have any questions, comments, or credos, feel free to post 'em and I'll try to respond. Other then that... See you later.

Oooohhhh I like your credo. You're so creative and unafraid to say what you think, and I think that's ONE of the best things about you. Keep writing the poems!!!!
