o'ay

ooooooo
fruits basket!
sure, can i reserve as well!

rin

i have no home
i know i cannot love
for my pain would taint your soul
forevor alone

i run along the path
longing for your heart
but i can never stop
cause then i would come back

learn to live a life
without me to hold you down
it's okay if i lose the game
i always have a knife

don't worry if i cry
forget about my tears
walk away from here
let me die.
okay, there we go!
luv gabriella

Here it is!

One day I went over
To the new kid's house
I dressed up my very best
With a white skirt and my favorite pink blouse
I rung to doorbell
Her mother opened the door
She looked very scary
I think she was gothic and was about to roar
But the new girl came
Very timid and scared
I said hi
She said hi like she was dared
The new girl told me to go home
She had somethibng importeant to do
So I did as she went back into that dome
The next day was school
She was very depressed
I said hi again
And looked like a fool
I went home
and made a fruit basket
I took it over to the house
While trying to be as quite as a mouse
The new qirl answered the door
and to her suprise
I gave her the fruit basket which lit up her eyes
She said thankyou to me
And I left
Happy that I made her day

i feel dumb.. but whats fruits basket?

o.O

A fruit basket is a basket with fruit in it.

um... if that is what you wrote the poem about then i don't think you really understood the topic, fruits basket is a manga, and also an anime, it is a show. not a basket of fruit.

I didn't really write about that.

your poem was way cute though!

Yah. Now I get it. I was kinda curious as to what it had to do with FB, but eh, I liked it anyway :D.

The poem must be based on the manga novel Fruits Basket By Natsuki Takaya. Sorry for not saying so though.

"Making Memories With My Lover",
Would you like your name taken off of the contest?? If not, you can still keep the fruit cake one on :D!

No thankyou. If you read it again, I fixed the fruit cake to fruit basket. Does it still meet the requirements?

Indeed it goes with the title, not so much the book, but oh well. We shall see on April 2nd!
Good luck everyone again!

Oh ,the book! Well, I've neer read the book so I guess I'm out! Sorry!

That's okay :D. You can stay in the contest if you like.

I think that I should extend the due date...

I'll let the contest go until all 15 places are reserved and the poems are in. How's that?

O'ay. Please, try to write a poem about fruits basket everyone! I would love to see what you think about it.

Yah... I'll go till 10 people enter... perhaps :P

Not to worry! I shall get my fruits basket poem in forthwith!

I will answer if i can write a poem with a fruit basket in but i havent got a clue wat the book is.

If you know about zodiacs (year of the dragon etc.), then you can submit a poem about them. Do you want to resevre a place? The book isn't really about fruit :S.

I am almost done, but I have to warn you all. It is really long! It's about Kyo.

Here is my poem. It's really long, so sorry in advance....!

For Kyo
By Yuna

I remember that day,
When I came home at last,
I was training in the mountains,
Time went by so fast.

I saw you for the first time,
You were a stranger to me,
But my mind was on that Yuki,
He was the one I had to beat.

That very same day,
I lost a fight to him again;
To that damn rat named Yuki,
I hate him like the rain.

As the days went by,
I was forced to go to school,
I should`ve flunked the entrance exams,
But I came out as the fool.

So many things have happened,
So many things have changed.
My whole world is not the same,
It really is quite strange.

I reunited with many cousins,
All of which were healed.
By the hand of your heart,
And the warmth of your kind soul.

My life has been a road block,
I don`t know where to go.
So much pain and agony,
That much I do know.

Many secrets I did keep,
Many stories left untold,
There`s no way I could share them,
There`s no way I`d be that bold.

I kept seeing your face,
As bright as the early sun.
My life became less violent,
You made it seem like fun.

But then that fateful day
When my shishou did arrive,
The fear came crawling back,
I did not want to be alive.

You saw what I kept secret,
You saw my ugly self.
My true form may it be
Taken off a dusty shelf.

I thought that is was over,
I thought I had no chance,
But then you came toward me,
And offered me a glance.

Your face showed sadness;
Your eyes showed fear,
I felt so guilty.
When you came near

I couldn`t blame you,
As the rain came down.
But I was surprised,
When you came around.

I never thought it possible,
That I the cursed cat,
Could be healed by this person,
Just like that.

You told me something,
I shall never forget.
Let`s be together.
I don`t want to leave you yet.

That is when I realized,
My life no longer worthless.
I had someone who understood,
My pain, stress and loneliness.

I want to live with you forever,
That is my final vow,
To protect you with all my might,
Tohru, I shall.

I`ll love you always.
That`s the truth.
Amen.

Heh, not sure yet. There are prizes though... Do you have an idea of what?

Enter?

Awe, I would, but I know nothing of this show.
If you want to describe a character or a scene [more prefered] I could TRY for you ...? =/

xTheEcstasyOfSuicidex

I got that much. Geesh.

I meant literally describe [elaberately] a character or scene with a few characters in it [perfered] and I'll give you one more entry.

xTheEcstasyOfSuicidex

I wrote a poem with a VERY breif description of the characters if you want to see it.

Ok. I'm going to go to Youtube and look at one of the scenes... do something from that if I can. Work for you?

And above poster, thank you for your help . . . I read your poem, but with all due respect, didn't do much for me. Sorry. But, I wanted to tell you you have a few mistakes like it says you "rung" the door bell...that should be "rang." But anyways.

xTheEcstasyOfSuicidex

That's a good idea... checking on youtube. That'll work :D. Good luck, and thanks for reading my poem. Sorry it couldn't help. It doesn't tell much about the characters, but it is basic.

Wow.... yuna, that was a beautiful poem, it was exactly like kyo... im not surprised you did a poem about him... specially cause you have his picture as you LOL but ya,, i don't think you can really beat that.
gabriella

Gah.
I'm trying, guys, but youtube wasn't much help.
Would you allow me to make up a story for the character? Maybe like what I think should/could happen to him/her? Give me a name of a character [not one someone's done] and I'll do that..
This is so much more difficult then it should be. =//
I'm sorry for the inconvience.
