I am going to post poems. A critique and feedback would be appreciated!

His Fate
His aim was true,
Pierced through their bodies,
The arrows short and narrow.

Not one or two but three he slay,
As every arrow flew,
They came upon him,
Hit and stabbed and poke and prodded.

But because of his bravery,
They couldn't reach,
His family in time,
He to them was their most noble protector.

His body lay their for maybe a week,
Then they came and took it away,
On a boat and sent down the river.

Battle Victor
The battle horn cries.
See them clash together.
One mans sword through another mans leather.
He falls to the ground,Without another sound.

They are the winners,They are the best.
They are the champions,They are Victors.
But does it really matter,all those victories.
Why must they fight,a fight that isn't theirs.

Yes, I like it much more, and I also enjoyed the internal rhymes as well. Great job

I would only make the last line:
Desperate eyes scanning the horizon for help.

Don't much like the yelp, other than that, superb!

Well I thought of something like that but I didn't want it to rhyme with the same word.

Where dost thou wander, oh Lady Of The Cinders? Upstairs and downstairs and in thy nightly chambers.

Wind(Extended)
Wind in my hair,
Flying through the air,
Shouting,Screaming,Crying,
Can't believe I'm Flying.

Plummeting to the ground,
Not making a sound,
Closing my eyes,
Falling from the skies.

Did you do this, Kingjac? if so, not to be rude or anything, but the verbs must be linked into the same basic meaning. Also, the chronological sequence of events is important.

Nighttime
The darkness and the cold,
The creatures in the night,
The bats giving me a fright.

The hiss and slither,
The hurry down the ally,
The bumping in my house.

Made in the first line poetry thread.

Murky waters
As I wade through these murky waters,
My heart fills with sorrow,
The other side just keeps moving further,
I cant get across.

There's Something in these waters,
These horrible murky waters,
I can feel brushing past,
And pulling me in.
