K well i had to write a poem for english and i liked the one i wrote so here it is
An Accidental Alchemist
There was a bold young scientist
Who always got his way.
But when he became an alchemist
It must’ve not been his day.
While he was thinking of something to do
A thought struck him hard
Why he would make a magnificent brew!
He found a large tome, on his bookshelf it starred
Due to its lore, and its information galore.
He flipped to a page
And found an appropriate potion.
-“A magical mix, great for any mage!”
It read, and what a wonderful notion!
First, ingredients to gather:
Fresh deer’s milk
A swan feather
And spiders silk.
Bright purple moss
Three toad tongues
Mint dental floss
And a pair of goat lungs.
Hair from a horses back leg
And what? A rooster’s egg?
All of these he bought at his local apothecary
Now it was time
To start to combine
Even though the prospects were scary.
“Gather all your ingredients here
As well as an iron pot
Poor into the pot the milk of a deer
And cook until it is truly hot”
Well the store he had gone to
Was out of deer’s milk
Instead he used the milk of a creature that often says “moo”.
After all, aren’t they of the same ilk?
“Next you must crack open the egg
And stir it in
With the hair from a horses leg
Inside a separate tin”
He only read the first part before he began to act
So into the main pot they go
“Nothing will happen” he thought “And that’s a fact!”
But, haha, little did he know….
That severe repercussions
Would come from his digressions
Of the rules in the book.
All things considered,
More carefully he should look!
He followed the remaining instructions without fail
And yet he felt he was progressing at the pace of a snail.
When he finally finished his wonderful creation
He wondered for once what its effects were.
Will it teleport him the length of a nation?
Or will it destroy things, from the highest dragon to the lowliest burr?
Well whatever it did it was now time to see
“This potion of mystic might
Can tell you the species of any tree”
What? That can’t be right!
He continued to read with much trepidation.
“But be warned,”
“Trees are much greater than us in wits and in station.”
He fell hard on the floor
Nearly brought to tears.
“No!” he shouted, “There has to be more!”
And yet he was worried to check lest it acknowledge his fears….
“Due to the intense power of this brew
It would be unwise to not follow the instructions
As you will have made a potion that is altogether new.”
So he jumped out of his chair
And poured the mix upon it.
It turned into something shiny and rare
And something upon which he would certainly never sit!
He leapt in the air and made a din
With the open vial still held in his hand.
And a drop of the fluid touched his skin
That final triumphant moment was his last in this land.
The moment he touched that liquid he was turned into a metal oh-so-cold
From that day on he was made out of gold.
Ps: god i hope my english teacher doesnt do a pirated message search and find this :x
PPs: not cuz i stole it or anything lol
PPPs: no reallys i rote it mahselfs
