Poetic Challenge: round 2 (season 4)

~Inspiration~

 

Inspiration comes in many forms and fashions. I feel that a true and most talented poet will not only be inspired, but will also be the inspiration.

 

 

 

 

So, what is in store for you this week?

 

 

This will be a two-part challenge.

 

 

 

Part One: You must find a new poet. This most MUST have joined within the last month. You are to read some of their poetry, and be inspired by a poem that they have written. Leave a detailed comment on their poem, telling them how you were inspired by their writing. THEN write a poem based on the way the poem made you feel… show me where the inspiration took you. You MUST then return to their poem, and leave them a link to your poem.

 

WHAT IS THE POINT OF THIS?

 

Well - - - You have been inspired, and by sharing this with the source of your inspiration - - you could very well inspire them to keep writing! We all know what it is like to be new on this site! Let’s all be INSPIRATIONAL!

 

I will not limit you to any specific genre or form, seeing as you are writing blindly from inspiration. HOWEVER, there is one rule: In your authors notes of your poem, you must leave a few words about the poem that inspired your poem and a link to the new poets’ poem.

 

Once you have completed that task, leave the link to your poem below.

 

All pieces will be scored, and you will then be given part two of this round.

 

 

 

Deadline: Saturday June 30, 2007 @ 8 p.m. (est)

      Gack! I have a big problem now - the poem you took inspiration from was the same as mine, only I had planned to comment after finishing my poem (as they sometimes abandon me). When I went back, I saw you'd already commented... I need to IM the judges I guess and ask if that's ok, if not, I'm shtuck. Ah well.

    Come on Poets......

    ......dig in and find out what these New Poets are REALLY saying ~

    When a New Poet comes along, they usually pour out their Hearts on their first few writes ~

    I want to see you expand on them with the talents and gifts you have been blessed with and pen something special.....even if it is just for them in return ~

    Only a couple of days left!!!!!!

    I don't want you to feel rushed.....but there are only 4 entries and ten more to go with just two days to go before deadline!!!!

    Bear ~
