Hello everyone, and welcome to Round One, hosted by Fire Opal, grannyeri, jess09stevenson, x Empathic Rose x, and IndividualEleven.
We have come together to create a journey through the stars, and came up with alot of points as well, so we'd like to see some new creative works done by committed and talented writers. This first round will start off at 500 for Gold and 300 for silver, with bronze and HM's to be added after entries reach 15 or more, then for each round after this the point value will increase ex-potentially, so with that said lets get down to what we're looking for.
Round One: Space/Planets is the theme, combined with Thoughts and Questions, with a min. of 10 words from the word bank. Any form, left allignment (with few exceptions).
WordBank:
stars
Terra
Luna

anti matter
Asterism
Draco
Pleiades
constellations

Now the Rules:
simple, no swearing, keep to the topic, make it readable, and no funky backgrounds.
I will comment on all entries, Other judges are not required too, however they will be reading, and you have to get at least two of the judges to nominate your poem to be put on the finalist list.
We have the right to close this contest or end the next rounds at anytime for any reason.
Have fun.

Syzygy is one of the best words ever! You've got some really great words in there (bit of an obvious statement, but I shall make it anyway) so I hope you get some awesome entries. Good luck with the contest! xxx

Though I have to look up some of the words (due to being a Dutchie LOL), I'm going to try to enter anyway. So don't be mad if I use some words out of context, but kindly let me know and I'll try change it or withdraw it. If we never take on a challenge, we will never learn.

Thanks for Gold, well done all! La x
