PLEASE do not ask me why you've been removed from my contest.
I will explain.
I am keeping only my very favorites. No, you didn't do anything wrong and I'm not being mean. just hosting a contest. I have to be able to tell by this one piece whether or not I'll be able to read and reread your poetry and still feel amazed.
be confident in your work
or don't enter.
I'll keep it open till I'm satisfied, and will dq those not up-to-par.
please, spread the word?
NOTE:
I reserve the right to not comment.
because I don't have enough time with all the entries I'm getting.
probably the only comments I'll give will be to correct something, or after the contest is closed.

wow I am speechless! If you have received a notice for the conclusion of this contest, then consider yourself very talented! I had to sift through many many poems, and ALL the poems left are wonderful. I kept only my favorites.
and my absolute favorites are in the "finalists" list.
4-10 will receive HM.
1-19 will be added to my list of favorites, and the poems will be added to my list http://allpoetry.com/list/35555-fav-s--pt--II-
I'd like to give out prizes to you all, but I have 6 active contests at the moment.... so it's not possible.
for the entries that were not added to the finalists list, BE PROUD! you persevered through utter scrutinizing on my part.
and please leave your piece in my contest, because this means that I have interest in reading more of your work! and maybe an addition to my list of favorites?
Please everyone, leave you poem in my contest so I can have a chance to add/read/etc.
thanks for sharing your mind with me-- it's been a pleasure.
