The first contest I set was or poems about ships and/or cats. It's time for another.
I do not set rules. I want good poetry, that is all. If you want to know what my idea of good poetry is, look at my previous postings.

Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on November 1, 2006
- Rewards: Gold: 300
- Final notes: A very large entry, and very difficult to judge. Nearly all the poems were about cats, who are plainly an unending source of inspiration. Some excellent poems, more than prizes could be awarded for.
Most common faults - forced rhymes or unoriginal expression.
