(Photo-Unknown. If anyone can identify the creator of the photo, I will credit them)
I have entered quite a few ten word challenges lately, and I am wondering what some of you can do with five words. This is not for the faint of heart. I am working on a point system, and the bottom line will be content and grammar. So, a list of words will not cut it. If you do not say something intelligent, I will not DQ you (as that is just petty and juvenile), but I will just not consider your entry. And, you will know that is why you do not do well.
As for rules, there are a few.
1) If you are not sure whether or not I like ThiS KiNd OF wriTInG, do not bother entering.
2) if u r nt sre abot this, c abuv rle.
3) If you are prone to bashing anyone or anything, again see rule one.
4) Put your username at the end of your poem, not in the notes, or see rule one.
5) I will accept variations of the topic, but only if I can figure out the relevance.
6) If I am on your ignore list, see rule one, as I am probably there because I disagreed with your writing or critiquing. (Yeah, this is a blatant snip at a couple.)
7) If you are on my ignore list, enter away; I commend you on your bravery, and I am honest enough to judge fairly, even for the couple who are ignoring me.
That is it.
The topic is God. Do not describe the photo, but rather what you see within it.
Any disrespect shown for anyone's belief will be deleted. Disagreement is fine, as long as you respect the first.
This contest will end without notice. Please bear that in mind. Judging will need to wait until after the weekend.

Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on June 29, 2007
- Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 200, Bronze: 100, Honorable mention: 7 people
- Final notes: Well, this was more difficult than I had anticipated. There were some very wonderful entries. The top three were the hardest as all were equally true. There were a couple that simply quoted from the Bible. A few I had a hard time figuring out exactly what the connection to God was. Still, there were very interesting lines.
I did not comment on everyone; this is a very busy week for us and I am pressed for time. However, I do plan to visit each entry when time permits and comment on it.
Thank you, all, for great reading.
