Your poem is very nice Ciane It captures the living life of a sim. I like the lines, " working, playing, learning" because it is the nice basis and enjoyment of the game.
Thankyou for your kind words on my poem.
Truly nothing's quite the same as sitting down to play the game.
Happy smiles when things go right,muscles tense when bad things strike.
Every aspect we decide, from choice of spouse to shade of tie.
Games like this are not just toys, they help express our fears and joys.
A universe that we can bend, a sim's life short or without end.
Masters of our small domain, we watch them grow through sun and rain
Every sim that ever was, has lived it's life because of us.
Your poem is very nice and captures the essence of The Sims Thelessy It expresses so much about what the game is like. Thankyou for sharing your poem . It captures the feelings and experiences of simmers as they play the game.
I'm back! This year is going to be a blast, and I'm glad to be a part of it once more.
As you may well be aware, my favourite thing to do in-game is build and decorate, so I tried to encapture the process behind creating a lot. This is only a quick poem, but the concise nature of the acrostic lends itself more to abrupt expressions of thought, so I'm actually quite pleased with it being imperfect. Right – I'm done with being pretentious, so here's the poem.

—Build
Brainwaves: expressions of thought –
Unhinged ideas flowing through hands, as
Incipient threads twine into one.
Learn, scrap, improve, adapt.
Done.
Your poem is great WibbleLikeAJelly It captures so well the building process, from the idea to the testing it out, to the learning and changing and improving, then the final resulting creation which a builder is pleased with. Great poem!
Too many nights I spend simming away
Having to wake up tired the next day
Even I can say that it's still worth it
Stress easily goes away, so I deserve it.
I never regret my late night simming
Mostly because my solitude is beginning
Safe and sound alone...if my game would stop freezing!!!!
Woo! We are back! I tried to capture my current feelings toward the Sims. I think we all go through phases and I'm currently not so into it. And I tacked a silly "Three" on the end because why not?
The Sims Three
Trapped behind the little walls,
Hellish figures can appear.
Each one's future quietly q.ueer.
Somehow I cannot bring myself
Into the clicks of gaming gate
My little people's breath must bate.
So less the trap, the more the wait.
"Throw away your life!" they said,
"Hark not the signs of your distress!"
Revealing depths that then digressed.
Enraptured as I once had been,
Each one can die so deep within.
Come
On in, the
More the
Merrier. Come and join
Us. We don't bite!
Nothing beats being
Included in the revelry.
The word around town is that
You rock!
Shadow
Sneaking down corridors,
Hallways filled with mystery
All the fears of my childhood
Down the creaking staircase, lay
Oh, to find my way out of this
Winding, spooky, haunted house!
So there. My first poem in a year. Lord, I need to practice! :?
Power can turn a saint to a sinner,
Leave forests as deserts and cities as ruins.
And yet we are trusted with a little bit of it.
Yes, the World of the Sims isn't real, but;
Imagine being one, being a pawn in someone's game.
Not having free will?
Gallantly facing whatever the elements through your way
Good thing you aren't a pawn.
Or at least you don't know.
Do you know?
Your poem is great mjdrgnpt Great expression of thoughts based on your title's theme and it is great that you have done it in acrostic form.
Very nicely written poem ForeverFranconia Time does pass quickly when simming and is a nice enjoyable thing to do to relax. I agree though that it is not great when the game freezes !
It is great how you have written your poem Skelda It captures and expresses your feelings in a nicely written, poetic form.
Your poems are great Blythelyre I hope that the Community themed poem encourages people to enjoy sharing their poems with us all.
Great acrostic themed poem IMeep As simmers we are able to control our sims as we would like. Simmers do have influence in how our sims live out their lives.

is happy... as my poems rearly fits a mold
Yes, of course!
Off to write!
Yes you just get more points for following the theme and style
thank you
@Coffefreak4Life
didn't see anything about points... just votes
Tiny animated world -
hills, plants, trees, ponds, rivers, oceans
everyone working, playing, learning.
Simulation on such a grand scale
imagination running rampant
mirroring real life or deviating...
Such a powerful feeling playing God!
....
I love all the poems. Thank you for sharing yours Rose. I would be able to tell it was yours if I had to pick it out of whole batch of unsigned poems!
I like the plumbot theme as well. Wondering how sims feel about it, how we feel about it, and if we are indeed just like our sims.
I like the additional challenge of rhyming lines to the acrostic as well. Nice job with that.
I like the focus on the simmer as well and the whole simming forum.
There are so many different aspects to explore and so many ways to do that even with a theme and a style depicted.
I look forward to reading everyone's efforts.

Wibble, I like the near rhyme with scrap and adapt and the thought there. We plan and build and then change things and tweak.

DO NOT DISTURB
Dare not to enter
Or even peak in
Nightmares wait for
Open minds
To confound
Dusty book lies
Innocent, a guise of
Spells and mystery…
Tempting to open,
Unwitting
Read the words--
