Hi to everybody who is reading this right now... thanks for entering in advance!!
Okay, for this contest I just need you to write about one topic..... the seasons! Spring, summer, fall , winter.
This is a very broad subject, and you may write about whatever comes to mind! Your favorite season, memories of them, whatever. Just follow the rules below, please.
Rules:
-Absolutely no adult content or cursing.
-Please keep your poem between 20-40 lines.
-No bashing, trashtalking, or anything like that.
Thank you!
Due to a recent comment, I have decided to reverse my decision on allowing prewrites. You may now enter prewrites, and also enter two entries. Please, no more than two entries. In the Author's Notes, please cite the source of the poem. Thank you.
