Ok, let's have some fun guys by being creative. This thread has no other purpose but to have fun. You must post an elven poem, with elven words (which of course, can be invented), but you don't need to translate it. The whole idea is for it to sound elven and interesting. I'm sure that a lot of these poems will have influences from your mother tongues, so it will be very interesting, I think. I'll start:

Iluzi Nado Cores Samos Randill Ferl Ipsi Karon Kolis Rilsi Va Tril Del
Hyri Valis Norre Halvo Ser Nil Tor Igo Nima Fellis Ipsi Limo Gor[/quote]
I actually invented this poem during a romanian class. The class was soo damn boring...
Hey this should be good. I'm not very creative so I got a latin poem. I know this is sposed to be Elven but would you know if I hadn't said that? besides, latin is tradtionally a magical language anyway, just look at the typical spell names, they all sound latinish.
O Fortuna, velut luna statu variabilis,
semper crescis aut descrescis; vita detestabilis
nunc obdurat et tunc curat ludo mentis aciem,
egestatem, potestatem dissolvit ut glaciem.
Sors inmanis et inanis, rota tu volubilis,
status malus, vana salus semper dissolubilis,
obrumbratam et velatam mihi quoque niteris,
nunc per ludum dorsum nudum fero tui sceleris.
Sors salutis et virtutis mihi nunc contraria,
est affectus et defectus semper in angaria;
hac in hora sine mora cordis pulsum tangite,
quod per sortem sternit fortem mecum omnes plangite.
It is supposed to go with a tune, some of you may have heard it. It's a very famous tune. I have an english translation by request.
Actually, they do in some english university. Or was that kling-on (or however it's spelt) anyway it was some nerd language, pretty sure it was J.R.R Tolkein's Elvish. But it is an official course and you can graduate in it and everything. Ok, now I'm damn sure it's Lord of the Rings Elvish. I'm not sure why I'm so sure, I just remember thinking I would do that, if I could... and I wouldn't want to learn kling-on.
