Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on March 7, 2007
- Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 50, Bronze: 20, Honorable mention: 2 people
- Final notes: I am closing this contest early due to a busy time with coursework but also entrys had died down anyway. all the poems that were entered were abosultly fantastic and each and every one of you is a brilliant writer. however i picked those which really hit me and seemed personal to me. i thought i would add to those who may not have known but the picture i choose was resembling child abuse and how it affects a child. well thanx everyone for entering
gold- did you want me to die?
silver- alone
bronze- dear mummy
honary mention- this is really me and another beating

Thank you for the gold. That picture brought back a lot of memories for me. I am glad that you liked it but saddened that children are abused everyday with no stopping it. I know that you had a hard time judging and congratulate everyone who entered. Thanks again.
