I am a member of the Ligitimate Contest Holders Group. You can find our group here: allpoetry.com/poet/Fair%20ContestHolders

NEW NOTE !! If you enter a prewrite please make the second entry an original...thank you

THIS IS A HUGE CONTEST OF IMAGES ~ YOU HAVE 9 PHOTOS TO CHOOSE FROM ~

FAIRY
VAMPIRE
TOES
WINDOW
PAIN

I am looking for well written, creative and emotional poetry. I desire to see poems match the images. The poems can be in any form; DARK, SUICIDE, SPIRITUAL, EROTICA, LOVE, CHILDREN ect. Use only the images provided not one of your own. If you have a membership please upload the photo given, and place it with your poem because it helps to see it while reading It's okay if you are not able to do this  

HINT...A poem about my grandson Dolan will be extra special to me but I cannot promise it will make you win. I also am an artist, how you use font, background and color affects me almost as much as the poem.

ALL POEMS WILL GET AN HONEST CRITIQUE/COMMENT, PLEASE DON'T BE OFFENDED WITH MY HONESTY. I AM  ALWAYS KIND AND TRUTHFUL

RULES RULES RULES

1. CONTEST STOPS AT 45 POEMS
2. PREWRITES ARE ALLOWED BUT THEY BETTER MATCH THE IMAGE OR IT WILL NEED TO BE DELETED
3. Please use spell check
4. Use of swear words are okay, I am not fragile
5. No more than 2 poems per person please - ONE MUST BE AN ORIGINAL
6. I reserve the right to change the ending dates depending on amount of entries
7. List the name of your image in your comments please, the names are listed up above ~ YOU MUST DO THIS SO I KNOW WHICH IMAGE YOUR POEM IS RELATED TOO IF YOU FAIL TO LIST THE NAME OF THE IMAGE YOU ARE USING, I CAN'T BE RESPONSIBLE FOR NEEDING TO OVERLOOK YOUR POEM

GOLD - 350 pts
SILVER - 100 pts
BRONZE - 50 pts

HM's - no points but mentions, unless someone would like to donate

INSPIRE ME SO THAT I MAY SEE WHAT YOU SEE AND ABOVE ALL ELSE HAVE FUN PLEASE-------

    Very nice pics! I personally have a thing for the dark ones, Vampire and Pain, they are absolutely beautiful, but your grandson is so very cute. Those eyes are perfect. I hope you get many beautiful entries.

    thanks for the compliments on my grand babe...too late you already buttered me up No...hehe...I am off to read the new entries including yours. It's kinda hard to tell which people really want true critiques or just want all the good, it's a fine line we contest runners have to walk I think.

    I have come back to say winning with my poem in your contest earlier this month means so much to me...I have to keep coming back to this poem like you told me to do...it is hard for me...my faith keeps slipping away then returning...I miss my brother so much and can't stop thinking of the wretched way he died at the hands of two human beings who are also Gods children...

    I want to thank you for holding the contest, because submitting my poem and getting that wonderful comment from you is helping me come to terms with his death...thank you once again for awarding me the gold trophy because I didn't think my poem was any good to anyone only me...now I have someone I want to show it to in the hope it will bring some comfort...take care BarefootSoul ...~Lilac~
