Silver Stream's Poetry Shop

[insert clever slogan here]

Welcome to my first shop where you request literary art instead of visual art. Due to the kind suggestion of a friend, I have decided to offer my poetic services to you guys in exchange for a small price: pure satisfaction. I will be creating poetry in relation to your OC's where you'll specify desired tone, theme, and type of poem. If you don't really care HOW I write your poem, more than likely I'll make it a free verse with whatever structure I see fit. Not every poem is required to rhyme, so if it's not specified, each outcome will be different. Along with your request, be sure to link me to your OC's Background or provide a description of what they are like or other details you want me to know so I can integrate them throughout your poem. I will be taking on 7 requests at a time and like many shops, I do have simple rules:

1. Do not nag. Writing poetry isn't a very easy task especially during a stressful era. Depending on how busy my schedule is or my mood, some poems will take longer than others.

2. When the shop is closed, it's CLOSED If you wish to still post your request for in the future, you may but please put them in spoilers to avoid confusion. Simply quote them once it's announced the shop is open again

3. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE let me know if there is something about your poem you don't like. I will do my best to revise them and since I am not good with it, I welcome constructive criticism.

4. Once your poem is done, you're free to do whatever you want with it as long as you credit the work to me.

5. No extreme NSFW stuff people. I don't mind creating poetry consisting of strong language and mildly gore scenes, but anything beyond that isn't allowed

Examples:

For Lunar Echo

For Prophet

Could you maybe make one of my OC Flearia Dragondanser?

She is a bookworm that loves learning and magic while making her own uses of spells. She is also kind of light headed about her surrounding when she is focused.

Alright first one done. Please let me know if you want another one. Apologies it's a bit short compared to others, but your OC doesn't seem like the chatty type anyway. Basically I created something where he describes his own paradise compared to the fantasy of others. Hope you like it:

The warm rays of the Sun beaming on your sleek fur;

Compiled sound of crashing waves and singing seagulls

The peaceful scenery makes good thoughts within you stir

And the confident knowledge that the world is free from evil

Fine granulated white sand beneath hooves soaked by the sea

Your significant other pressed close as you bask in the moment

Happiness fills you as you internally scream "I'm free!"

This alone is your communication; no words needed to be spoken

Your paradise is a fantasy

The night sky decorated with speckled white lights and a full moon

Shadows hugging my frame as I breath in the cold crisp air

Life sworn to ensure those I love are safe from uncertain doom

Shoulders heavy with a responsibility no stallion or mare should bear

Basking in dark chilly nights with a sword of eternal ice and heart of fire

Unknown enemies, dark memories, and one brother left to remember me

His happiness and serving my princess of the night are my only desires

And I bear these desires alone; carrying them with extreme expectancy

My paradise is my reality

Drago is added!

@FlutterFly761 sorry it's closed until I finish the orders. But I'll add you for the next wave

@Hibiscus Bloom Thanks you so much for abiding by the rules c: I'll definitely add you to the next wave once I'm done with the others

I hope you like this. It was a bit difficult since I don't make a lot of "happy go lucky" poetry. But it got easier the more I wrote. Inn Keep is s adorable and I imagine him in this Broadway play as some jolly optimistic Innkeeper who breaks out in song xDD. And that was pretty much my inspiration to write this:

COME IN! COME IN!

And welcome to the Inn of dreams and satisfaction!

Where heartache isn't allowed but more so your joyous reactions!

I bring exceptional service to make your stay worth your while

Because nothing is better than a wondrous uplifting lifestyle

Just trot right in here and forget that huge load that you carry

I'll take good care of your things, there's no need to be weary

OH! My pleasure to meet your every demand. good pony

All I ask from you is to enjoy yourself and get cozy!

CHECK IN! CHECK IN!

And take this key to the room I know you'll adore

I am certain this is a paradise you've yet to explore!

Here! Drink a hot cup of cider to put your mind right at ease

I'm just a jolly old pony with a purpose to please!

And though your stay here is more temporary

You'll leave with a mindset my Inn is legendary

We have hoof-stomping dances to get those hips shaking!

And beautiful scenery that's simply breathtaking

With drinks of plenty that I shamelessly will indulge in

And a toilet that backs up every now and then (hehe)

BUT so what, I pride my Inn with all it's imperfections

And it's here where many ponies learn powerful lessons:

Life is too short to waste it with war, stress and hate

I was victim to that once, but broke free from that fate

Plus Ironbreak and I will ensure you a safe vacation

He's my trusty old buddy who never abandons his station!

ENJOY! ENJOY!

Go mingle with the others who seek peace as well

Let my Inn be your heaven to escape other hells

Ah how joy feels my heart when I see smiles on your faces

Oh no worries for payment, just accept my good graces

I see how you bounce like a filly so eager!

I welcome you wholeheartedly as your fellow Innkeeper!

please let me know what you want changed or you simply want a brand new one.

You're fine hun! c: You'll still have a spot for the next round no worries.

And a tip on how to do spoilers. Simply use the code "(spoiler) TEXT HERE (/spoiler)"

instead of using parentheses, you use brackets

and in place of "TEXT HERE" you can put anything and once submitted, it'll be in a spoiler

Sorry this took long. Actually.....this really didn't take long at all. I just had to take a break after the last two and took a long nap. After waking up, I got started on yours with a well rested mind. Basically, your OC is speaking with a colleague. This poem is meant to be like a "spoken word"....where she recites this with confidence. The flow is well paced when recited right. I imagine your OC saying this in a way that I can truly appreciate her. Hope you like it.

BUT!! If it's something you don't think will fit her, please tell me. From how she is described, she is a super intelligent klutz, but has hidden potential. If she was ever offended by someone or was ever pushed to come out of her shell, this is how I'd imagine it'll go. If you want it changed in a more passive direction, I will be happy to do it!

"Knowledge is power"

A common phrase used by the typical idealist with flawed logic

How ironic,

that I as an intellectual being oppose this theory

Is it not the knowledge I obtain that strengthens the magic with me?

And what of this magic within me that "credits" the Knowledge I gain?

HA! As if I'd measure my power based off of the size of my brain

How insane!

Tell me my fellow colleagues as studious as I,

In what way does knowledge make me more powerful than the next guy

Of course, we would not see eye to eye, but why?

My vast knowledge of a spell would surely surpass his skills would it not?

No, it would not. For this simple minded fellow trained in ways quite silly

Inspired by folk tales and myths, driven by faith and "what ifs"

And the journeys he took! This stallion gained knowledge we could not give!

How impressive

Is this thought that larger minds are on par with essential simpletons

You see, I know of the benefits every page has to offer

That some words hold secrets one might never uncover otherwise

Indeed, knowledge is quite the tool to have over a common fool

But the common fool has gained what some scholars will never find:

And that's the journey and experience gained to stimulate the mind

How powerful

is that mind as well as mine! And with this in mind, I'll study abroad

Books as my inspiration, but my heart as my compass

For you see, Knowledge is not the source of power to an extent

It's the journey to obtain and use it.

And though I'm the last pony you'd imagine to have a head in the clouds

Where focus is a struggle, and physique "weak"

My ability to appreciate the lesser intellectual surpasses your inability to

I not only gain knowledge, but I engage in it to create spell brand new

And it's because of this, that makes me more powerful than you

Could you write on about my OC making a toy?

(link in my sig)

There you go! This was a bit difficult. I wanted to integrate your OC's purpose for making a toy and give it a heartwarming meaning. Toy making is an art, but it's not the toy that makes it perfect, it's the joy it gives others right? Plus, after reading up on your OC, that seems to be the goal anyway c: But please let me know if you don't like it and want it longer/shorter/revised completely. To be honest, there was another direction I could have went with this. Where it was focused on the detail of how a toy was made. I could still revise this to where it focuses more on a detailed description of making a toy rather than the story and reason about making the toy. Here ya go:

See, I'm what you would call a perfectionist; I strive to create the perfect toy

The fresh smiles of fillies and colts is the source of this toy maker's joy

Each toy I create is created with excellence; my hooves are careful and swift

Since the age of six, I knew I was made for this! Born to create the perfect gift

Here and now, I work on this doll that a sweet little filly could not afford to buy

She stood at my window gazing at my creations with a sad longing in her eyes

A good pony informed me her name was Kate; she was only the age of eight

Never got what she wanted due to her family's poor living state.

I work with precision to ensure young Kate receives a gift from the best

Silk ruffles the color of her ice blue eyes would do nicely on the doll's dress

Got to stitch with finesse! This snowflake pattern shall be a wonderful addition

Jade buttons, some stuffing, and white hair for the mane the must be in perfect condition

Her gift shall be beautiful! Each color must complement one another

I'll even ask a good unicorn to cast a spell to ensure her gift will last forever

Oh, I must not take forever! Maybe a final tweak with the stitching

Tail full, mane styled, dress worn, doll stuffed. What more needs some fixing?

THERE! It's perfect! But not because of it's appearance as the perfect "plaything"

It's perfect because it's for a special filly and the smile my creation will bring

What he enjoys: flying and computer games.

Okay so this was REALLY REALLY short. And I truly apologize if it's not what you expected or hoped for. But honestly? I was given very little to work with Most of what I know is what you gave me which was his appearance and the brief fact of him enjoying flying and computer games. I had no backstory or personality to use when creating this. So basically it's a short thrill of a poem about your OC racing through the skies so he can play his games. I tried to incorporate that what he enjoys requires good values? I could have went wild with my imagination and shape your OC myself that way I'd have more to work with, but I feel as though I would have been overstepping my bounds. Now if you don't like this poem, I'll be more than happy to work harder on it and extend it to your liking. I completely understand that this poem seems to a have a forced flow and you was hoping for something...more xD But for the moment, this is what I have:

The Mandarian orange alicorn raced through the sky with a heart set to one destination

strong winds carry him faster; no cloud blinding his way

His presence a blur as he soars with a speed that exceeds any pony's flying expectation

would you believe it's all because of the games he would play?

Yes all for the game. This stallion lives for flight and the thrill of the cyber sport

No pony can best him in either, his skills are unbeatable

His game level too astounding to reach as he conquer the skies claimed as his resort

what better place to visit frequently to feel invincible?

"I'm unstoppable!" he cries; boisterous voice piercing the chilly air

Fly faster good prince of the skies! No time to lose

This Wiz of a kid flaps harder for home in order to start his gaming affair

almost there! He's ready to engage with his wonderful muse

Don't underestimate him; there's a reason he was sworn to this thrill he must fulfill

One would think such talents were a waste of time

To fly with a fury is as important as the next talent! And gaming requires unfathomable skill

This alicorn is a natural. Nopony can compare when he's in his prime
