Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on July 3, 2005
  • Rewards: Gold: 300
  • Final notes:
    This was a very hard thing to Judge because everyone was very great in their writes. Tossing and turning between who should be placed 1st, 2nd and 3rd is brutal.

    The Poets below are some that followed my rules and Instructions and came ever so close to getting placed in the rankings (You are ALL HONORABLE!):
    Just Chosen
    Toddmeister
    Regretable Action
    Jcinme
    bboy301
    Olanspoken
    Note: If I missed someone, I apologize.

    Now for the others I want to applaud you for joining in this contest and believe me there will be many more contests from me.

    I would first like to thank everyone for participating in this contest and I would also like to thank Topaz for the points from my previous Gold Trophy in the last contest.

    Just remember ALL Participants in this contest are wonderful and Honorable Mentions no matter what.

    What I will Promise all of you if I may:

    1)I will promise you this and I do keep my promises.

    2) I promise to be reading your poems
    3) I promise to be commenting and applauding on them.
    I hope you will accept.

    Take Care everyone and thanks for the rocking Contest we had here. I hope to get to know all of you soon enough.
