Pay It Forward, inspired by little hug

hello everyone! This is my very first contest here at all poetry, and i want to make it a good one! Now recently i entered a Pay It Forward contest that was held by little-hug! I placed in the top three, and was given the opportunity to PAY IT FORWARD!

For those of you who don't know what pay it forward means here you go...
               ~ It begins with doing a favor for another person � without any expectation of being paid back. Indeed one would request that the recipient of that favor do the same for someone else � ideally, for three other people. The unconditional favors can be large or small.~

Now for this contest, i want you to right a poem (positive) to make some one feel real good about being them! It can be anyone you choose! I hope that the winner of this contest will Pay It Forward, and start a contest of their  own based on the concept! That's how we keep the cycle flowing!

     *NOW* *FOR* *THE* *RULES*, not too many

  1)nO StIcKy CaPs
  2)NO ALL CAPS

That's it, I know its just so hard to follow all those rules!

        Good luck and ill make sure to comment on all your poems, and please try to comment on others! (not required)

1st-->300 points, *Gold* Trophy, Applause
2nd-->50 points, *Silver* Trophy, Applause
3rd-->25 points, *Bronze* Trophy, Applause

Ill try and give honorable mentions, once i figure out how! lol good luck!

Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on July 29, 2006
  • Rewards: Gold: 300
  • Final notes:
    These were all very hard to judge! Their was so many great entries and I was overwelmed with joy reading them! It seems you all understand the concept of Pay it forward, and i hope that the writer who one first place will use the points I gave them, to "pay it forward" and make their own contest of this sort! IT truly was an inspiration to me and you can all thank little-hug, for she is the one you started this wonderful chain! So i leave you all with the hopes that crimsonfury, will maybe consider a pay it forward contest with the 1st place points, and brandy3, and mysticstorm, will use their points for something good, as I know the will! thank your for this experience!

    Great contest idea. I just started a contest called "Peace Love Unity Respect" this is one of those small changes I was talking about wanting to see in this world.
    Good idea.

    I think little-hug is getting what she hoped would happen. All of her winners seem to be going on and starting Pay It Forward contests as well. I will be back, guarantee that.

    Good luck to everyone whom enters, and when the time comes, good luck at judging the contest.
