Okay, so i think by now that most of you know the concept for this contest. But incase you need reminding here is what it's about. Pay It Forward is a book about paying the kindness you receive from someone back out on to other people. So, basically if you win this contest I would really like you to start another pay it forward contest!!!
Okay, and now here is where my contest changes from some of the others. I consider the paying it forward part of the contest to be about starting a new contest.. the poems that you submit to me don't necessarily have to be about paying kindness forward...
SO HERE IS WHAT I WANT YOU TO WRITE ABOUT!!!
Pick one!!
1. I want you to give me a poem about how much you still love someone who may no longer be in your life.
2. I want you to write me a poem about overcoming past demons.
3. I want you to write to me about how you may still be suffering from the past.
4. I want you to write to me about loving a friend and them not knowing
5. Write me a poem about being in a park with someone you love.
Okay those are my options if you want to write about something else pm me and I might let you.
Da Rules!!!!
1. Check the spelling and grammar please!
2. Curse all you want *IF* it is important to your poem.
3. I am old enough to read adult material and if that is what you wish to enter please don't forget that there are children on this site and make sure to mark it as adult.
4. No pre-writes that have been in other contests for now.. try to give it to me fresh.
5. Make it raw, I want to feel some emotions from these.
6. Please keep it on topic.
7 Write which option you used if it is not obvious.
8. Do not rhyme unless you know how.
9. Have some fun.
10. PAY IT FORWARD IF YOU WIN!!!
Later Taters
