Title: Valentine's
Post by: Mory on January 31, 2008, 03:52:19 am
If you were to write a Valentine for your current company, what would it be?

For B Company:

The sunsets are golden,
Our commander, olden,
And ever the forests
Cut down by our axe.

With bowshots aplenty,
And no time to flee,
It's often we wish
Connore's aim was not true.

Yet smiles abound
As we sit around
The reflecting pool
Which is waiting its jets.

With love it is said
The best friends are had
And a fellowship true
Is formed in our hearts.


... okay, that was terrible and cheesy.  ;D

Valentine for D Company
(with many loving -hah!- apologies to Elizabeth Barrett Browning)
http://www.links2love.com/poetry_1.htm

How do I level thee?
Let me count the days.

I level thee to the depth
and breadth
and height
My toon can reach,
(or at least where I have a flight path...)
To the ends of Azeroth and where evil might attack.
(but not while sailing, it wouldst kill me swimming back.)
I level thee in thrall of everyday's
Most quiet need,
I level by sun and candlelight.
(Candles are cheaper, plus I need the electricity to run all my addons)
I level thee freely,
as elves strive for Night;
I love thee purely,
as blood elves turn from Day.
I level thee with the passion
I once put to use in my now gray recipes,
and with my childhood's faith.
(or at least in the faith I had before I hit level 20)
I level thee with a level I seem to lose
With my lost saints,
looking for my corpse in many a dark and shadowy enemy-inhabited place
--I level thee with the breath, Smiles, tears,
of all my life! 
--and, since I still have resurrection sickness,
I shall but level thee better after death
(or maybe after the next death...).
