Pride Poetry Contest

A story of adventure and discovery. A story of bonds and fellowship. A story of mysteries and mantras. A story of a world only the brave dare to brave. The adventure of a simple young man, brave and strong. A seeker of fun, one who understand the beauty of creation. A creature shrouded in enigma, as deep as the universe. The pursuit of mankind and all creatures in existence. A game of survival, a struggle for dominance. A contest of the braves. Additional tags: Realistic fantasy, Mature, Ecchi, Guild creation, Romantic Subplots.

Some exist with pride, others struggle with pride, some compete with pride, and there are those who fail with pride, but very few can walk away with pride. Congratulations, for as you read these lines, you have witnessed the whole lives of many great basketball players. This pronunciation was embodied when Stephen Curry, after facing defeat in 2021, claimed that no one would want to face them the following season; When Tim Duncan was convinced before the start of the 2014 Finals that they would not mess up; When Kobe Bryant promised at Old Buss's memorial to take the Lakers to the playoffs; When Nowitzki, shedding his label as a soft player, retreated to the locker room in tears at night; When Kevin Garnett let out a skyward howl after holding the championship trophy; When the 2004 Detroit Pistons won and the F4 Lakers lost… Our story begins in an era when pride still mattered.

This is my third poetry to BFF, written on February 6th, 2024. You said dolphins clapping sea tide in dream By: Amoureax Amant You said dolphins clapping sea tide in dream, sea tide crashing on shore laid in sunbeam, shore sand kissing ocean waved on island, ocean turning orange orange-stained sand. You came like floating cloud aloft blue sea, watched turtles slept under coconut tree, with melody of birds came with sea tide, with reflection drifting toward shoreside. You went like falling rain aloft heaven, fluttered like morning dew dropped in ocean, vanished like foam of fish fluttered in air, like spray of sea blossomed fairer than fair. Perhaps you were mirage appeared garden, or else you were angel came back heaven.

"A Journey Through Poetry” is a heartfelt exploration of how poetry becomes the voice of our deepest emotions and unspoken thoughts. In a world where words often fall short, this collection reminds us that poetry has the power to express what cannot always be said aloud. Whether it’s the joy of love, the pain of loss, or the quiet musings of the soul, each poem is a journey into the heart of what it means to be human. This book invites readers to embark on a personal voyage of self-expression and reflection, offering a safe space for the untold stories that we carry within. Through lyrical verse, the author captures the delicate dance between silence and speech, showing how poetry serves as both a shield and a mirror—protecting our vulnerabilities while reflecting our truest selves. In “A Journey Through Poetry,” the act of writing becomes more than just an art; it becomes a means of healing, of sharing, and of finding connection when words alone cannot bridge the gap. For those moments when the heart is too full to speak, poetry whispers what we cannot say.

HELLO it's me the author of this story it's my first time making a noval so if mistakes arise I hope you will provide feedback on that. and help me the story too I'm open to any suggestions and my noval is connected to a few novals like. In a realm where multiple worlds exist, bound by threads of fate and power, the story unfolds around ancient forces and long-forgotten legacies. These worlds are shaped by the existence of powerful orders and divine beings, their destinies interwoven in a cosmic struggle. Knight Pride is an order of honorable warriors, sworn to protect the light and uphold justice. These knights carry within them a fierce sense of duty, defending their kingdoms from the corruption that seeps through the realms. Their strength lies not only in their combat prowess but in their unshakable belief in virtue. On the opposite side lie the Hollowed, beings who have lost their sense of self and become empty vessels, controlled by dark forces. Once proud warriors and leaders, the Hollowed now serve the twisted will of the Dark God, a powerful entity that seeks to dominate and consume the essence of all life. Its influence has spread across worlds, leaving entire civilizations in despair. Among these entities are the Ascendants of Eternity, mortals who have transcended their earthly limitations and achieved god-like power. These beings exist between realms, neither fully alive nor dead, but eternally bound to the cycles of creation and destruction. Their ascension grants them immense abilities, and they serve as guardians of balance, though not all choose the same path. The Dark God’s Influence manipulates individuals across worlds, turning them into its vessels. It has laid a silent hand upon kingdoms, sowing discord, drawing upon the power of fear and hatred to fuel its dark ambitions. As the balance between light and darkness teeters, the Dark God's sway grows stronger, threatening the very fabric of existence. The various orders and beings connected to these events must come together or fall, as the line between good and evil blurs. The fight for survival spans not just individual worlds, but the cosmos itself. Forces clash, alliances form, and destinies are rewritten as the eternal conflict between light and shadow reaches its climax. In the midst of this, forgotten prophecies resurface, revealing that a chosen one may rise from among the broken to defy the looming darkness, unravel the curse of the Hollowed, and either become an Ascendant of Eternity or fall into the depths of the Dark God's embrace.

The Aristocracy Dominates the World, While Military Bandits Split the Land. In the North, a young man raises his sword and cracks his whip, riding across the mountains and rivers, determined to carve a path for the common people of the world. I had no intention to hunt the deer, but seeing the suffering of the people, I will fight, and fight until I become unmatched in the Eight Directions!

This is my second poetry to my BFF, written on October 28th, 2023. I envied redwood stretched toward heaven By: Amoureax Amant I envied redwood stretched toward heaven, whose branch in branch like hand in cloud ocean, whose leaves like thread weaved curtain covered sky, whose spot like stage light lit for butterfly. I envied stray bird hummed with bugs echo, whose siren song spread through redwood shadow, whose feather swirled like lone-drifting snowflake, whose wings like flash slipped through green amber lake. I envied cowboy rode through siren sight, whose horse ran on green sea plain at twilight, whose gun aimed at wild deer in green forest, whose bonfire cooked deer meat in light gauze mist. I envied fish blew bubble in amber, whose bubble bloomed as gorgeous as flower.

This is my first poetry to my BFF, written on March 7th, 2023. Peach blossom bloomed as gorgeous as bloom rain By: Amoureax Amant Peach blossom bloomed as gorgeous as bloom rain, at branch in full peach blossom on mountain, but left tree branch with wind through amber lake, toward fragrant sea like drifting snowflake. Just left when butterfly danced through peach tree, just left when hummingbird echoed with bee, when rising sun turned dark cloud peach blossom, when drifting rain fell from misty cloud dome. What if peach blossom stayed till September, peach blossom might neither dance through water, nor travel with light breeze through small arbor, toward vast sea like boat sailed from harbor. What if peach asked of peach blossom's journey, here's the answer, freer than in valley.

In this world, ascending to upper realms was a matter of resources and ability. No matter the status or power level, if you have the money and the willingness to, you can live in any realm of your choosing. However, the higher the realm, the more power there is to tap into and cultivate. However, a devastating war led to a change in the rules. Who is brave enough to seek the Supremacy and rule the world? By: Jerlani

His journey to become the True Demon Lord of Pride will shape the fate of Althaea and define his legacy. Alex, a man who died due to overwork while designing a game called Beyond Creation, finds himself reincarnated into the brutal world of Althaea—a world ravaged by constant war between humans, demons, and other fantastical races.

To gain the full power of the Pride Fragment, Alex must seek out and collect the remaining four parts, each held by powerful beings, ancient guardians, or hidden in dangerous locations. Each part of the Pride Fragment represents a different facet of the sin of Pride Alex’s ultimate goal is to unite all five parts of the Pride Fragment and ascend to the rank of True Demon Lord of Pride, thus gaining control over the entire demon race and beyond. But his path is fraught with peril. Along the way, he will face rival Demon Lords, human forces led by the Seraphim, and dark powers seeking to disrupt his rise to power Themes and Elements: The Power of Pride: The central theme of the story revolves around Alex’s mastery of the Pride Fragment.

Ethan Grayson has it all: a multi-billion-dollar company, a penthouse view, and a personality so charming it’s borderline unbearable. But after one too many dinner dates with women who talk more about his stock portfolio than their hobbies, Ethan decides he’s done with high society. His grand plan? Marry a “normal” woman who doesn’t care about his money. Simple, right? Enter Emily Carter, a bookshop employee who thinks a “luxury” is buying two cups of coffee in one day. She’s witty, stubborn, and entirely unimpressed when Ethan waltzes into her shop one afternoon, throwing around compliments like confetti. For Ethan, Emily is everything he’s looking for: genuine, grounded, and refreshingly immune to his usual charm. There’s just one tiny problem. Ethan’s arrogance is the size of his bank account, and Emily has no patience for egotistical billionaires—no matter how good their jawline is. As Ethan awkwardly tries to “woo” Emily in the most unromantic ways possible (think unsolicited business advice and overly generous tips), Emily starts to wonder if this handsome stranger might actually have a heart hidden under all that bravado. But when she discovers his real reason for pursuing her, all bets are off. Will Ethan learn to drop his ego long enough to win Emily’s trust? Or will Emily decide that some books are better left closed?

A manifestation of my belief in love and life through lyrics and verses.

However this book is going to get filled with poetries, about eveything. It's attached with every feeling. It's written for everyone.

That is why I decided to keep them all together, in a safe place. I wanted to create a kingdom for their beauties. So that they can never be forgetten. And I named this kingdom "A Kingdom Of Poetries".
