Week 1 - Task #1 | Whispers of Echo

Postby Amy Smith » Sun Jun 11, 2023 4:11 pm

You stand near a coffee shop, trying to find people, to whom you can ask questions in regard to the things happening in the town, but instead, they give you witty remarks. But, this time you think of just standing there for a while and trying to figure out, how to talk to these people, who refused to talk to you. You wait for a while until you see another piece of paper falling into the ground and you pick it up. You think that perhaps, this would hold a key or some sort of information, but all it said was "What musical instrument can you hear but not see or touch?."

You think of what that could mean. You spend an hour, trying to figure it out until you remember that it means the voice. Perhaps it could be in relation to a person who couldn't talk, due to some reason? or perhaps someone who refused to talk or sing, in order to protect their interests. Whatever may be the reason, you go in search of this particular person, with no clue as to where they may be. The paper also stated that this person had the diamond of a person.

hours pass by and you finally find a person, who couldn't talk does she look you in the eye? You try talking to her again, but it still doesn't work. You remembered that the person couldn't talk, because the culprit had made sure that they could only reply to songs. Which meant that you would have to sing something.

Your task
Your task is to either write a song or a poem of at least 10 lines. It should be about you trying to convince the person to give. (It should be original). This task is worth 5 beans and if you complete it by the end of this week, you get an additional 5 beans.

Please post your song/poem below by 8th July, 11:59 PM Hol Time.

For my glittering eye
There’s a diamond to find
Would you kindly be bothered to help?

With your scoff and that sigh
I can see that you mind
But I’ve taken this tasks on myself

I’ll leave off straight away
Should you speak up and say
You’ll assist with the sparkling gem

You can go ‘bout your day
Back to work, or to play
I’ll ignore every haw and each hem

I understand your predicament
But I must ask for your assistance
I know the curse on your instrument
I am not here to be a resistance

All I ask is you help me out
And I'll be gone, on my way
If it should be the case and come about
You have the diamond, I pray

Please pass it here, and I'll be gone
I'll leave you be right now
My gratitude to you will forever live on
You have my solemn vow

Good day, my dear person
Please help me, I pray
I know you don’t know me
But aid me this day.

I need a diamond
Perhaps one that you hold
You know it’s location
Or so I’ve been told.

It’s very important
I find it, you see.
Come closer, my dear
And please talk to me.

Dear friend, can you tell me
About something I seek,
A diamond's been stolen
From our fellow this week!
I've heard that you hold
The knowledge in mind
Of where, this treasure,
I could possibly find.
Please do me this kindness
And help end my quest;
Simply hint at its whereabouts
And wish me the best!

Oh, kind soul
Here, I have ventured
With only one goal
To aid you all in this adventure

But now I seek help on this quest
Of finding a precious gem
Our collaboration is my request
And safe again will be your realm

I understand this is hard
We don't know one another
But in your eyes, I see a spark
A spark to help me in this journey so dark

I don't know my way around this land
But stand by my side
Return the diamond so grand
And I will protect your world
Return to my own
And leave you alone

With words like silk, I wove my plea,
To convince you to share your treasure with me.
I praise the diamond's brilliance and glow,
Its worth beyond measure, a radiant show.

I paint pictures of opulence and delight,
Where the diamond would shine in your life so bright.
How it would adorn me, a symbol of prestige,
A jewel of desire that would intrigue.

I play on emotions, tug at your heart,
Describing the joy the diamond would impart,
How it would be a token of your affection,
A lasting symbol of our deep connection.

But words alone are not enough to sway,
I have to demonstrate my worth in every way.
With acts of kindness, I showcase my intent,
Proving that the diamond was rightly meant.
