A challenge

Hi all.

My challenge for you is to write me a poem that speaks volumes. In other words, the poem must be as short as you can possibly make it, but it has to say a lot to me and other readers.

The length matters here. If it's longer than I feel necessary, you won't place.

There will be five trophy winners and I am accepting 20 entries for this.

Be creative, imaginative and brilliant and above all, speak volumes in minimal words!!!!

Have fun.

You picture inspiration is above and was painted by Daeni Pino.

See what you can say about it, short and to the point.



Love and light,
Butterflydreams... x
