A not so quick contest (24 hours)

Yup!


Simply finish this line;


A life without love...


That's it!


The usual rules apply.


No less than 12 lines, no more than 24 lines.

Only room for 24 entries.

All forms of poetry accepted.



That about sums it up for now.


Get to it!

  • Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 150, Bronze: 75, Honorable mention: 5 people
  • Final notes:
    As the title stated; "A not so quick contest"...

    I was out of town this weekend. I do apologize for the extended time it took to judge this contest. There were so many entries with the prompt as the title, it was hard to distinguish one from the other so, to keep confusion down I chose those entries that stayed away from those words as their titles to be my finalists. That is not to say that the poems were not well written because they were.

    With such a cliché prompt, I think everyone did a splendid job here, and I thank you ALL.


    The Trophy Winners:

    Gold - Entropy Only (loved this title)
    Silver - Love is necessary
    Bronze - Fruitful Delight

    Honorable Mentions in no particular order

    THANK YOU EVERYONE!
