The Angel of Rain

Have reopened contest since I was not able to judge at the current time and will do so on the 15th of this month no matter if any more entries have been added. 

Picture inspired contest. I call this the angel of rain. I want you to write it on a rain theme based on the picture.

Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on July 17, 2007
  • Rewards: Gold: 300, Honorable mention: 5 people
  • Final notes:
    When this contest first closed, there were only four entries. Then I reopened it to extend the time so I could judge it appropriately! Then nine more poets added their wonderful work to the great work already present. Everyone should pat themselves on the back for such fantastic entries. Thank each and everyone of you for making it a wonderful contest for me.

    Sincerely,

    Ted E
