XD, well ... I thought I'd chance posting some of my poetry here. I don't really write as much of it as regular literature, so take it as you will. Any opinions will be much appreciated, though.

Based off of a combination of astrological myths, though the idea randomly appeared. ^_^

Universe

Gentle caress of the moonlight, harsh brand of the sunlight.

By the star's light, plight of the solar system ignites.

People of the sun, people of the moon.

War and strife, or peace and light?

Stand and fight, or leave from sight?

Stars and planets unite, but for what right?

To defend the universe, a common enemy born.

Rest not, or risk the fate of the torn.

Thank you, Mike. I appreciate that you read and commented, and am glad that you like it. ^_^

And, yep, everyone has room for improvement.

My first attempt at Haiku, XD. Based off of the Kistune myth, and the minor myths connected to it. Also inspired by Buson's single haiku:
"Was that a fox"
"or a prince in disguise"
"this hazy spring evening?"

I'm not sure if standard grammar for regular poetry applies to haiku, so I used Basho's and Buson's general grammar, XD.

Kitsune Moon - Haiku Quartet

Moonlight graces a
gently lapping sakura
blossom cast pond.

Lady of change,
loyalty and deception.
Myth surrounds thee.

Nine graceful tails,
eyes of amber light,
gleam this spring night.

Love, fox or princess?
Winding trails of fate,
mists of the moon.

Kitsune Moon (Draft II) - Haiku Quartet

Moonlight graces a
gently lapping sakura
blossom cast river.

Known myth surrounds thee,
O wandering shapeshifter
Only chasing light.

Nine beautiful tails,
Gentle eyes of amber light,
Gleaming this spring night.

Love, fox or princess?
Winding the long threads of fate,
Within veiling mists.

Well ... I'm back with a poem I just wrote this morning, XD. While it is fanpoetry, the involved characters only make game appearances (as cards). It's something I just couldn't get out of my mind, so here is the final result.

Characters:
Moon Envoy
Maiden of the Moonlight
Lunar Queen Elziam

Envoy x Maiden

Yugioh: Envoy to the Moonlight Maiden

Warrior though I may be,
Crescent glaive brightly gleaming.
It is not whereaupon I see,
Naught but darkness lies seeming.

Pinpricks of gentle light,
Auburn tresses adorned by the night,
White aura, your only magical might,
Protectress granting evening sight.

So few glimpse your ivory wings,
Or see your continuing devotion.
Only our graceful Queen hears what you have to sing,
Gentle words turned into enrapturing motion.

Though we both guard a light of dusk,
Delivering what is considered just,
I admired what is not a must,
Watching your starfall dust.

Time and conflict come to pass,
We each surviving with little more than life.
Yet naught can surpass,
What blooms from strife.

No longer forced to be repressing,
Softly, slowly expressing,
Finally free of distressing,
Offering a silver band of Queen's blessing.
