Here we go again with I believe contest number nine. I love holding these things!!!
Rules: I am a stickler so they must be followed or you will be dq'd!
1: No religion bashing or poems about the Devil!
2: No cutting, suicide or the like...someone has it worse than you!
3: No bashing of other poets...be polite for it is right!
4: No more than two entries per poet as I want everyone to have a chance!
5: You must enter your option number within your author comment box!
6: If these are not followed you will be warned once and then dq'd!
(Just to clarify...I don't mind sad, depressing poems. I just don't want pieces of the devil or committing suicide.)
Okay now that the nasty part is out of the way here is what I want from you...
I want your best quality. It must be very good to win in this contest as it is for quite a bit of my hard earned points...
Option 1: Word bank..you must use all of the words from the bank you choose. You can use others as well...just remember to use all from the one you choose and put the one you chose in the author box...
Bank 1: Bank 2: Bank 3:
Sensation Tasted tears Tangerine scented
Soaring Ringing ripple Amethyst skies
Sinking Painted passion Dancing digits
Simplicity Lovely laughter Rainbow dreams
Serendipity Crimson choir Candy land wishes
Shallow Magical melody Cotton Candy Clouds
Smothered Grasping greatness Pretty in pink
Option 2: Use each of the following lines within your poem. As long as you use all of them you can put them anywhere in the piece...
*Words swallow me whole
*Patience is a virtue
*Impeccable inspiration
*Jade pendant memories
*Soul sighing sensation
*Grasping for greatness
*Long winded laughter
Option 3: Write me a piece describing one of the following items. The catch is that you CANNOT write the actual item in the piece anywhere. I want to be able to tell what you are describing without you telling me. Any questions just im me...
*Jesus
*kiss
*nirvana
*love
*home
*friendship
Okay for now that is it. Just pick an option, write your piece and enter. Make sure you add your option to the box and have read all the rules. The way I judge is a point scale. I will judge each piece from one to ten. The half that scores the lowest will be removed from the contest. It does not mean the piece was bad or that I did not like it. It just means some that entered were slightly better. It makes the judging process easier on me. If you cannot handle losing or having your piece possibly removed please do not enter here. I hope that you are all adults and enter. Have fun!!!
First place is 700 and Gorgeous Gold
Second place is 200 and Shimmery Silver
Third place is 100 and Brilliant Bronze
