No Elric movies! [06 Nov 2005|08:35pm]
[ mood | chipper ]

I can't believe it. I knew that they'd made no progress on the film production of Michael Moorcocks Elric books but a girl can dream can't she. Besides, I've been patiently waiting for things to get rolling with it. I'd hoped to find it on the list but alas.

Avalon, Old Island Fair


Dancing wildly in the wood,
Tall and shining,
The columns stood,
Eating apples in perpetual spring,
Smiling maidens,
Of true love doth sing,

Avalon, old Island fair,
On aged Glastonbury Tor
Where Avalon, old Island fair,
Stands concealed forevermore


Ty Nicole Pedroso
The Once and Future King


Holy Avalon,
Under abbey lies,
Where great Arthur sleeps,
Sworn to never die,
The abbey bell tolls,
Leisurely, across the sky,
The brilliant sun rolls
And Britain waits on,
For its true king,
From days long gone.

Both Tennyson and Waterhouse are such inspirations. I can only hope that one day, with years of practice, study and writing that I can even begin to compare my writings with the art that they created. As of now, it would be embarrassing for me to even claim that I am good enough to lick their boots.

On the Sleepy Isle of Avalon



1 Before the cave mouth,

2 In the dead of night,

3 On the snow covered earth,

4 Amongst flowers encased in twilight



5 In the icy silver streams,

6 Silhouetted against an array of moonbeams.



7 The pale pink mouth sang,

8 Emitting a sound like fallen rain,

9 Her long limbs glowed white,

10 A picture of doves transformed in flight,



11 It was on Avalon she roamed,

12 Riding like a swan,

13 on the misty ocean foam,



14 Starlight entwined in her Dark hair

15 Her gilded girdle woven with supernatural care,

16 by the ladies of the maiden fair,

17 On the sleepy isle of Avalon


18 The true brave knights from far and wide,

19 they came upon the ocean tide,

20 To look upon and make a bride,

21 The divine maiden on the sleepy isle of Avalon.



22 She smiled upon them,

23 Her head she bowed,

24 To the death, rose her solemn vow

25 Would the man, with most renown,

26 Hold her heart and gilded crown.



27 To arms! To arms!

28 Their shouts they came,

29 They battled for their loving dame

30 And one by one these men were claimed,

31 By the Gods they said should reign,



32 Until all but one stood tall,

33 Wounded but unwilling to fall,



34 His eyes were bright,

35 His hair was long,

36 He danced and swayed to her soft song



37 She laughed and smiled

38 A secret smile,

39 Then reached tenderly to his brow,

40 For in her hands she held a crown,

41 Made for the princes of Avalon



42 The crown was made of silver and gold,

43 Forever new but remaining old,

44 It held within it a radiant light,

45 Was forged using a holy might,



46 It healed his wounds,

47 It made him strong,

48 It held within him his maidens song,

49 The crown made on the sleepy isle of Avalon



50 The Knight and Lady,

51 Were King and Queen,

52 Dancing by the oceans sheen,

53 They laughed and sang,

54 Their voices rang,

55 Heard near and far,

56 They reached the stars

57 On the Sleepy Isle Of Avalon


Avalon: The sacred Isle in Arthurian Legend where it is said that King Arthur’s body is buried only to awaken and rule his kingdom again in a time of great need. The Lady of the Lake is sometimes said to rule it with magic.
