Our little Poets...
 

I want to know something...

Do you write poems? Sometimes when I'm listening some songs (for example Vangelis' music, Power of Love by FGTH, Loreena McKennit or some Meat songs) I have to raise up my pen. And then the words flow on the paper. Here is one!


Do you see the waves
As these are clashing with the rock?
And you wonder the caves
When this marvel's gonna broke

You did not expect to crumble
Sooner it was so strong
And now the feeble stones rumble
The revive is too long

I'm just waiting too
I would be entire again
I know it can't be true
But I hope that stop the rain

When I'm going to wake
For a shining silent day
I'm gonna enjoy ceasin' ache
And I will say for her a pray...


Well, do you write poems?

(Sorry my English! No! This is the free of the poets...)

Well White of High, i'm impressed. Very good. I had to write poems and story's, for Dutch, and we had to make a Literairyearbook......oh well, how do you write that, in Dutch it's called: litearaire jaarboek.
And it was very funny to do.

Well allright, some funny Dutch thingies.....smashed in to one big, huge poem!! Read it and Weap:

Vrij niet in de tuin,
maar in het riet.
Want liefde is blind,
maar de buurman niet.

Deze nacht was lang
de vorige dag was kort
Nu maar hopen dat,
Deze dag langer dan de nacht wordt

Ik hou van jou,
Ik blijf je trouw.
Tot de dood ons
scheiden zal.

6 jaar zijn we nu al bij elkaar
(effe overdrijven, hoe krijg ik het voorelkaar)

Geniet van de dag
geniet van de zon
open de deuren
en flikker van het balkon

En dan, een val van het balkon overleeft
(benieuwd wat de volgende dag ons geeft)

All the Dutch folks will see some familiar things. :lol: :lol:

Maybe I will learn the Dutch! :o

yeah, great language......but i'm sorry, can't translate it, cause then it wouldn't be funny any more.
But it's about a day in someones live, and what all went wrong, but on a funny way.

Like: Open de deuren en flikker van het balkon
is: Open the doors, and crash from your balcony

I don't write a lot of poems, or so, and the few that i've written, are not in English. But i think, maybe......a new topic is born.....and maybe we will find a second "Jim Steinman". Or maybe Meat Loaf can use some lyrics for Bat 3 :lol:

Why not?

Music by: Jim Steinman
Lyrics by: White of High 8O

Meat Loaf singing dutch? Or Hungarian?

That would be funny, because many english people have trouble to speak the words on the right way!

6 jaar zijn we nu al bij elkaar
(effe overdrijven, hoe krijg ik het voorelkaar)

Geniet van de dag
geniet van de zon
open de deuren
en flikker van het balkon

En dan, een val van het balkon overleeft
(benieuwd wat de volgende dag ons geeft)

he he he... I'm Dutch too.... [helemaal in een deuk hier] he he... :lol:

Well, nobody has got some poems?

Don't you promt to write poems Meat's music?

Yes I write poems sometimes. But it are Dutch poems too.

OK! Write our language!
My best poem:


S Én Mégis Tovább Szenvedek...

Félelmetes beteg vidék, ne akard hát felefedezni
Sűrű ködben árva világ, próbáld kérlek elfeledni
Sötétség a barlang mélyén, messze lenn a felszín alatt
Komorság és rideg bánat emel közénk magas falat.

Kérlek, menj és hagyj magamra egyedül a bánatommal
Felejtsd el e sivárságot, s én elfeledlek fájdalommal
Ne nézz vissza többé soha, dobd el kínzó fegyvered
Boldog leszel fényességben, s én mégis tovább szenvedek...


You don't try read it, if you just can speak Turkish, Basque or the dead Aramian.
What does it mean? Hmm... Hard, too hard!

I once won a prize for writing a poem about a child who was beaten. it was inspired by the middle verse from Rear View Mirror:

And when the sun descended and the night arose
I heard my father cursing everyone he knows
He was dangerous and drunk and defeated
And corroded by failure and envy and hate

There were endless winters and the dreams would freeze
Nowhere to hide and no leaves on the trees
And my father's eyes were blank as he hit me again and again and again

I know I still believe he never let me leave
I had to run away alone
So many threats and fears - so many wasted years before
my life became my own

I am in the middle of moving house, but if i can find it, i will post it here.
(It is in English but I will type it with a Dutch accent to please our European friends!!! :D )

:lol:

:twisted: I havn't written any poetry for years.All the stuff I did write,i've lost.Which is probibily a good thing because they were all very depressing :cry: .
As for learning Dutch...
I used to work on a cruise ship (King Of Scandinavia) which put into port at Ijmuiden every four days.I was the assistant cruise manager (which means managing the entertainment and doing anything the cruise manager didn't want to do :wink: ).
Eddie,the cruise manager,a very good friend of mine from Norway used to tell a joke on stage which was funny for all the wrong reasons.
He used to say that the Dutch first discoverd the beer then discoverd the language.I used to cringe as he'd stand there with an insanly pleased grin on his face,as a room full of Dutch people sat there in silence,glaring at him with daggers.Then he used to say the only words he had learned in Dutch were (I can say it but I can't spell it) God damn it.He's a really nice guy,just not very tactful :roll: .
lol :D
By the way,do any of our Dutch members live anywhere near Ijmuiden?

WOFH, very funny and nice language do you have. I didn't understand it, to bad!

Funny thing is that when i see a foreing language, i can't understand how other people can understand that. :lol:

I don't live in the neighbourhood of IJmuiden, I'm living in the North of the Netherlands.

I saw on a bus stop a strange duth poet:

Heb Lef stem LPF.

Conclusie:
Je moet echt lef hebben om LPF te stemmen.

he he... how do you do that, typing something with a Dutch accent?

IJmuiden, i know people there, they had a beautifull beach, a great "pier - this is dutch, don't know the english word) and it is a great city.

pier = plague ?

:twisted: Hey White Of High,are you telling us that the word pier means plague in Hungarian. 8O
Pier is the same in English,it's what the Americans call a boardwalk.
Unfortunatly I didn't see much of Ijmuiden.I used to go to work early and go to bed late,so my time in port was spent mostly asleep.Apart from when Eddie (the cruise manager) didn't fancy the job of dressing up as a giant dog as part of a company campaign.Guess who drew the short straw :lol: .Scaring real dogs was funny :lol: .Having the **** kicked out of me by the kids wasn't :evil: .

Michel!

Here is the answer to your first question: No!
But Freddy Mercury was singing in 1986 a Hungarian folk-song in concert. The title was: "Tavaszi szél vizet áraszt"
What does it mean? Hmmm...
"Springer wind is making flood water"

... Cause here is Danube and Tisza!!!

Well, here is another:

Please

Please, help me through
Help me through to heaven
I drifted and flew
Like a bolted dragon

Please, no let me here
Not let me here alone
I'm bein' lost in fear
Frozen blood and tremblin' bone

Please, open the door
Open the door of sky
It should be the first floor
Where I wanna live, love and fly

Please, hold me in peace
Hold me in peace of light
Swimmin' in the wild seas
I needn't cry and fight

I have always seen the tears
I have always been in fears
And I've never lived in sins
But I've never seen the sheens
I have always been in night
Always been on other side
And I've never seen the white
I've always felt the slight

Please, say me the meaning
Say me the meaning of my life
My lonely heart is bleeding
Solitude is my knife

Please, light the fire
Light the fire in my heart
Follow it what I desire
Give me the power of bright

I have always seen the tears
I have always been in fears
And I've never lived in sins
But I've never seen the sheens
I have always been in night
Always been on other side
And I've never seen the white
I've always felt the slight...

Do you know what I'm doing at now?

I'm translating DAnce Of The Vampires to Hungarian. My brother is an actor and sometims he directs dramas. I hope I will wrestle with it.
Anybody has got the full script, not only the lyirics of the songs?

3 songs are ready: Angels Arise, For Sarah and Endless Appetite!

Here's two poems I wrote a while back.

The Flowers Are Melting

The flowers are melting away
As I stare out the window
My heart seems in shadow
And I run
From anyone

And all I see is bitterness
Rain and cloud
Screaming out loud
To anyone who listens
Or who cares

Endless skies, are made of dew
As a new day is ringin’
Sow my peace of mind
With golden thread
Till I’m dead
An’ rotting in my grave

And I know that all is lost
Lost songs and broken poems
So save my breath
And a float it on the zephyr
Takin’ me to heaven.



The Firebird

Ah, the firebird that warms my breast
And causes me to love the world
The fire envelops me
Turns and twists and unfurls

Irony itself; and wise, so wise
It creates the very stuff we hate
But gives to us a thing we desire
It draws us in, we take the bait

Driving toward the violent flames
It spits and cracks and heats the air
The glowing embers dry my tears
That I had shed for unanswered prayers

The silent voice soothes my fears
And tells to me what I wish to hear
That the end of all of this suffering
Is coming close and near

The flame reaches out to me
Reaches into my soul
My eyes blaze with fire
The flames take control

I surrender to its almighty beauty
And give in to His healing
At once I feel free
I don’t want to lose this feeling

I must release it
Though it pains me
I let it out
And set it free.

I would hope one day to have some of my words put to music - DESPAIR - Sadness comes all to often for me,
A light on the horizon I cannot see,
Is this how things are meant to be?
Each morning as it dawns,
Full of hope I pray -
Happiness and contentment may come my way.
But once again my wishes are jaded,
As another day passes and hope has faded,
Happiness in this life is not for me,
I can see it all now -
So please let me be.

Forever Touch
 

I've fot a song up on the General Messages board, as that is my first (proper) song

I'm gonna try and make a Cd (1) and I don't want it to be all cover versions!! :D

Danny

Well, all creative people here.
