deviantART's 11th BirthdAy: Let's Celebrate!

Tweet August 7th, 2011 marks deviantART's 11th birthdAy, but in true devious style, we're taking a whole week to celebrate! Our original plans for Deviants Appreciation Day were so huge that there was no possible way to express our love for the community in a mere 24 hours. Instead, we've created Deviants Appreciation Week, and what better time to host a week's worth of community-oriented events than in the days leading up to our birthdAy? Each day this week, we have something special organized for you to participate in! Check out the schedule of events below to come party with us!

Time Traveller's Engagement

Exactly ten years from tomorrow, we'll be married here. My wife doesn't know that, of course. In a certain sense, neither do I. It's a beautiful spot, now. Now meaning today, when the sunlight is still pure, and the sky is still blue. The ivy still climbs in green snakes up the side of her father's chateau, the pennants of the House of Renard are snapping gaily over the towers. I hear a lilting laugh that even now sends my heart into my throat. Euryale Renard. She is only a girl today, no older than my little sister is in the days I left behind. Even at twelve, my Ury's curls catch the sun like molten amber, with a flower basket flung wide

Letter to Love

I know it's been a long time and I know this is really stupid, but I don't want to regret anything. I don't want to think that I left things unsaid. For what it's worth I still feel the same way I did. I know it's been almost a year but I don't feel like anything's changed. I've tried to move on, I've tried to do what you asked me to. I just want a second chance. Whatever we had before, I want that again. I miss feeling happy together. Whenever I try and move on I always come back to you. No matter who it is I always feel that they aren't perfect. No like you, you are perfect. As far as I can tell thought their only flaw is that they aren't y

wwii: pearl harbor

we stood idle and looked to the sky for answers to questions and questions to give answers they came down like missiles, bombs overhead their answers were a destruction that flew in from across the sea explosive and threatening, they made the noise feel like silence rooted to the ground, we parted ways then to now it's 2011 and i still look for you everywhere

Autumn Renaissance

silence-- as loud as a bee to a sunflower >::< orange crest glowing; the stench of fire heralding in the season >::< before the deluge; dust devils dancing in the twilight of their lives >::< morning fog condensing-- beads of cold sweat on parched leaves >::< leaves fainting from their hosts perish on the way down... their purpose ended? >

Scald to Memory

You cling to people like trees cling to their very last leaves before the cold winds of late autumn blow them away. I know. For long I was the one you wrapped yourself around and burrowed, bruisingly deep, until I no longer knew where each of us ended and began. Unwilling to be lost yet always escaping from your fearful, fevered eyes. I know how I pained you when I finally left. You will not believe me in this, nor when I say how much it tore at me. You never understood my reasons. I can feel the betrayal burning through you. If I was protective foliage then that burn is the forest fire. It will cleanse you, and you will grow stronger. Reme

Un anhelo apasionado

Un anhelo apasionado. Jugando con los hechos de mi vida Unicamente para ver que Al final de la tarde de cada día No brillan más las estrellas en el Cielo que la Ardiente mirada de tus Silenciosos ojos, Tan apacibles como la Inmortal luz de la Luna, la que siempre me Llena de esperanzas de poder Oír aquellas palabras saliendo de tus labios… Juan A.
