The Answer

Hullo!
For you who saw my Riddle the answer is:

Evil! (if you know Ninjago, it could also be the Overlord. It goes two ways, this riddle)

Unfortunately, I don't have a poem for today.  Sorry!

More Poems!

Hullo!
OK, I now have a riddle as well. I don't think I've put it up before.

      What never sleeps, what never dies
       It has two, red eyes.

I'll tell you what the answer is next week! Post your guess please :)

Here's the Poems for this week!

  A certain Money Box,
  Is a Bank's best friend.
  It keeps the money under locks
  You must be careful not to bend,
  For if you do,
  You may have to lend,
  Money to the Money Box!

Thats Poem one! Here's no Two:

   Morning Star,
   Your golden rays,
   Light my days 
   You guide me to,
   The nicest places
   I follow you,
   By foot or plane,
   By car or boat,
   To find you, my
   One and only Morning Star.

Thats Poem no Two! Here's the last one:

   Evening Star,
   Your Silver rays,
   Are pure goodness
   You dance through the night,
   A graceful Ballarina,
   You must away,
   'Ere break of day,
   But I will always find you again...


And thats the last poem! I will post more soon!
See you around!

Another poem

Hullo readers!
You probably know what this next poem is about - yup, you got it right - Ninjago!
Here it is:

Epic Dragon Battle

The Ninja, tired, weary,
Stood back, watching the beast
Would it ever tire? Of course not!
The Snake reared up, ready to strike
Green scales as bright as venom
They waited, frozen to the spot
Like rabbits in the gleam of headlights
They waited for the world to disappear, but
It never happened
Their eyes snapped to
The Ultimate Dragon as it roared
The elements hit the Snake, one by one
And each Ninja called
Lightning!
Fire!
Ice!
Earth!
The beast wound up a building
Mouth open, fangs bared, ready to strike
Down went the Dragon
Scratching the Snake with claws and battering it with wings
Down went the Snake
Victory!
The Dragon prepared to land, roaring a greeting
BAM
The Snake's tail came from the ground
Tearing the trees apart and stinging the Dragon
The Ultimate Dragon roared
And fell to the ground
The Snake slithered away


There! Todays poem. Please comment!
See you soon!!

My new Poem Page

Hullo readers!
You're probably wondering what that means. I have a Topic called "Ninjago Poems" on the Ninjago forum. This is just for Ninjago poems, so if Ninjago isn't your thing, then you don't have to look at it (unless you're bursting with curiosity!).

New Poem

Hullo!
I've been busy - lots of Writing! I've written another Poem today. Here's it is:

        Meet the Fire Dragon

         Red Dragon roared
         Mournfully as his
         Master left him
         In a bright temple pooling
         With Lava from the volcano

         Red Dragon roared
         Mournfully for his
         Master, who had left
         Him to guard the
         Sword of Fire
 
         Red Dragon was
         The youngest of
         The Four
         But now, instead of playing
         He must guard the Fire Sword

         Red Dragon crept
         Into a pool of Lava
         Always watching
         Never sleeping
         Until now

         Red Dragon's eyes opened
         He rose from the pool
         Two men and a girl - what were the robbers doing?
         His tail broke the rocks, covering the entrance
         The three would pay dearly for disturbing him

That's todays poem! as usual,feel free to comment!

My Top Writing Tips!

Hey guys!
I've had a good reaction to my Story, Stormchild and the Ninja: https://community.lego.com/t5/NINJAGO-Stories/Stormchild-and-the-Ninja/m-p/7191144#M92565
So I've decided to put up my writing tips to help you write stories!


   1. Start, Middle, Finish
   You need to know how it Starts, what happens in the middle, and how it's         going to finish, or it could last Forever! I was writing a story, and didn't how to finish it - so it's unfinished!

   2. Write it on Paper(this is useful if you use the Lego message boards)
       Lots of  people (I'm not saying all, but a lot) will just type up chapters on the spot without reviewing them. ALWAYS write it on paper first - then when you type it up, you can edit it!

  3. Music
      Listening to music is a good way to feel things in the story - or to add things to it. I was writing a story and got stuck. Should Kai's friend die or survive?I wondered. The music became sad, wistful and full of shock and surprise. I know Kai's friend would die, so I wrote it.

 4. In their Shoes
    Try to imagine how you would feel being in your characters position.

 5. What is its History?
     Think about why something happened - then write the story about it's History! It will give your story a fuller feeling - plus you can post it up later if you want. Did you know J.R.R. Tolkien wrote twelve books on Middle Earth's History just to write the Lord of the Rings?

 6. Read it to Somebody.
    ALWAYS read your story to somebody. Siblings can be good for this, especially if it is about their fave topic. If you don't have siblings, then read it to a friend - and ask if they like it!

 7. Edit Edit Edit!
     There is always a part to be edited: A word added, taken, changed, a paragraph added, taken or changed etc. This is one of the most important steps.

8. Heading
   What do you want your heading to be? Something that says: bla bla bla is in this, or something that will make the reader wonder? This is up to you. The more catchy the heading, the more likely people are to read it!


I hope this gave you some help. If you have any good tips, feel free to post them!

More Stories

Hello, Dear Readers!
Well, here is another story - and it is, once again, a Ninjago story. I really need to widen my range of interest :P
This story is called Ninjago: Rise of the Shadow Queen by QueenShada
Very original. It progresses nicely. QueenShada knows the characters well.
Here is the link:
https://community.lego.com/t5/NINJAGO-Stories/Ninjago-Rise-of-the-Shadow-Queen/td-p/6787634
 You can post on this if you have a Lego ID account, but this is not one of my stories.

More Poems

Hullo Readers!
Well, I've been busy writing, doing school, going dancing, and watching movies this week! The answer to last weeks "What am I?" is: a Horse!
Here's this weeks poem:

             The Ying Yang
           Shadows flicker
           Soundless in the night
           Like little cats
           With soundless paws.
           When sun rises
           Shadows flee
           Light floods Earth
           The Shadows hide.
           But for there to be light,
           There must be shadow
           And in shadow,
           There is darkness.
           Sun sets
           Shadows creep back
           To rule the night
           Before sun rise.

And that was todays poem! I hope you enjoyed it! Please comment.
Thanks!

Four more poems...

Hello dear Readers!
I have been to a poetry workshop this morning, and have written lots of poems ( in other words, four!). Here they Are!

                 Storm Horse
          Night beast.
          Lightning slicing the autumn
          Amber trees
          Moonshine, fiery red.
          Waves on once still water
          Storm Horse, racing into autumn
          Growling echoes
          Shrill roars and whinnies
          Keeping in the shadows
          Nostrils fiery red
          Suddenly savage
          A savage kick
          Collapses the river bank
          Little pearls fly from the splash
          Creamy vanilla, yellow today
          Storm Horse shifting into darkness
          Trapped, chill flickering through the wood.

Poem no1! here's the next:

               Moonshine Sugar
         You are my evening Star
         Brightest of all by far
         Guiding me over the land
         Roses blossom
         Where ever we tread
         Through the Vanilla woods

          You are my Moonshine Sugar

Thats poem no 2! And the next:


              What am I?
    Your proud head is high
    Fiery eyes full of life
    Long, sturdy legs pound the earth
    Tamed with love
    Wild by nature
    Most beautiful in my eyes
    Majestic mane and sweeping tail
    Flowing in the Wild wind

Thats poem no 3! if you don't know what it is even with the obvious clue, look for next Mondays post! Here's the last one:

           A gray horse comes through the darkness
           Melts into shadows, and comes back in focous
           Yellow rider on his back
           Appears to be floating, appears to be riding
           Sword clanks,
           Hooves thud,
           Vanishing horse
           Horseless rider

And that was the last poem! It does not have a name yet, but will (hopefully!) have one soon. Please comment!

Haiku

Hello readers!
Well, today I went to a Haiku workshop to try it out. It was really good, and lots of fun. Here are my three Haikus:
1)  flash of sound
     the horse
     gallops past

2)  willow blossoms
      beauty in her
      weeping figure

3)  a wall
     the rose
     climbs up

I'm not sure if these are actual Haiku, but they are as close as I can get at the moment!
If you enjoyed looking at the stories I posted up last week, there should be more soon!
Thanks,
WillowUnicorn
