This will be my 3rd contest. I enjoy reading story type poetry that rhymes. I really feel that those take imagination & skill to get your story line out & rhyme it as well. Feel free to read any of mine to get an idea of what I like to read as well. But feel free to enter any style. All the rules are below so please read them before entering. I will D.Q. anything I don't feel appropriate. I'm NOT an English major and will not correct or edit your work for you. But if I don't like it you will not win. 
Gold 300 pts.
Silver 150 pts.
Bronze 75 pts.
1 HM 30 pts.
1.) No Erotica or adult content. I really don't need that!
2.) No swearing. Come on use your imagination!
3.) No sticky caps. They get in the way of your story!
4.) No Self mutilation, murder, death, etc. I don't get into that & will stop reading it.
5.) No bashing of Religion or Ethnicity. We really don't need that here do we?
6.) Only one entry per person please. Don't get greedy just a few points here.
Now have fun & tell me a good story!
****Please don't feel bad if I don't applaud. I'm not applauding any one just to be fair.****

You are not an "English major". (I presume you are referring to someone reading - or rather NOT reading- English lang/lit at a US uuiversity - not a rank in the UK army!). Well, that is excellent news! To my mind, a degree course in "English" puts back a writer's development for at least five years; a course in "Creative writing" by an average of 10 years, and in some cases can cripple a buddibng talent for life!

However,, Read my rules sweety.. No Erotica. I would hate to DQ you as I would have to. If I allowed Erotica that is all I would get & my poor heart couldn't take that
