If one lives immortal life, they may often find it rife
With events that cause them strife, which may make them want to roar.
This tale is of one such being, who thought life was disagreeing
With her when she lost her sister, who forever she’d adore.
Perhaps another can step in, since she’s lost one she does adore…

I was inspired to write this when Unique SKD took his own shot at 'going Poe' (said story has since been deleted, unfortunately). It just took me a while to work out the kinks with this one.
My second story in poem form, I followed the trochee as best I could. It wasn’t easy.

Hey, youngblood! Don't you feel as if your time is running out?

The Raven is one of my favorite poems. This is now also one of my favorite poems. Thank you.

I'm always thrilled to see my stories/poetry make an impact. 
This review is brought to you by the group, 'A for Effort'.
Name of the story: The Pheonix
Score out of 10: 8
Truly a great story, the pros and meter, never boring.
But alas, I have a job, and no error's worth ignoring.
Thankfully, as I can see, the spelling went perfectly,
With neither typo nor tense out of place,
the grammar in the story gets ten out of tenth place
The review isn't not done, of course, on I go: Forever.
With a rhyming meter as the shtick, the story's pace is a little quick,
but read it slowly, that's the trick, or else you'll miss what makes it tick.
This lovely little tale, of sun and fire, for us you did avail.
And through my heart, across the waves, a wondrous moral that could not fail.
A few lines hurt the flow, but I'll bet you didn't know,
but alas, I must tell you so, so, as a writer, you might grow.
A poem's a lovely melody to tell your story for all to see,
and for that effort, I salute you... reverently.
But now we must journey around the bend, but I'll remember this story, a feathery old friend.
Now, to the end we must always go: Forevermore.
A wondrous tale, a hidden gem, go read this story — ahem. Forgive my rhymes, forgive my meter, for I have no experience in musical theatre, but... Just go read it, jeez

(and that last line
)
I'm not sure if I want to ask how long it took you to put that together, but it was really good!
Thanks for the review! Glad you liked it. And yes, I know one or two of the lines were a bit off, so that's very fair.
Sorry how did this go wrong.
Love this story.

How did what go wrong? I don't see the misformatting that you've written...

And thank you.

You’re welcome. I was tired I think that’s why.
Never read The Raven but this rhyme scheme is eerie similar to Edgar Ellen Poe yet still has the style of mlp.
This is wonderful! You're so good at poetry.
I used to be into that, but alas! Tis no more.
I've never read E.A. Poe, but this reminds me of Alice in Wonderland.

Thank you again! I just might have to write another one, then...
