WELCOME TO OUR CHILDREN-POETS HERE ON AP this is a contest based on a concept called « pay-it-forward », initiated by a wonderful young lady here on ap called ellie or
little hug : allpoetry.com/poets/little-hug
little hug’s current contest : allpoetry.com/Contest/2158903
the principal idea is to forward a gift of kindness we have received by someone, to three other persons, creating a chain of kindness and compassion …
applied to this contest, the idea is the following :
each one of the three winners will receive enough points to start his or her own “pay-it-forward”-contest and is invited to continue the chain in this way. so, please, only enter if you are ready to host such a contest in return. thank you for your understanding.
I will host three contests at the same time : one for everybody, one especially for teenage-poets and one especially for children-poets.
“peace-blessings” – for all : allpoetry.com/contest/2139924
“peace-blessings” – for teens : allpoetry.com/contest/2139939
“peace-blessings” – for children : allpoetry.com/poem/2139953
I will offer 333 points for each one of the 3 gold-winners, the 333 points for each one of the 3 silver- as well as the 3 bronze-winners have been generously donated by some of our wonderful poets here on ap. my heartfelt gratitude to all of you
.so now, just get inspired and write :
a poem of peace-blessings - for someone – or for the world …
enjoy …

Do you mind if I copy and paste some of the background info, e.g. 'the principal idea is to forward a gift of kindness we have received by someone, to three other persons, creating a chain of kindness and compassion', into my contest, as long as I give you credit?
Also, is it okay if I only let, say, 5 people enter? I have never hosted a contest before, so I'd like this one to be fairly simple.
Thank you for the inspiration for such a great contest!

hello thorin, sweety,
how beautiful, this will be your first contest then !
so great.
please feel free to copy-paste whatever you need for your contest-page, you don't need to give me credit though.
a good idea would also be to go to little-hug's contest-page, as she has even more information there, that might be useful for you.
I guess you are very reasonable to limit the number of entries, if you would feel overwhelmed with too much to read and judge for a first contest.
I am very confident that you will do the most wonderful job, my dear young friend. I am so proud of you !
don't hesitate to contact me if you need some more help or advice, okay ?
much love to you,
and many, many blessings,
marion
