Christian Poems of Spirituality

Hello my poetic peers. As much as people usually detest ground rules, here are mine....

1) nO StICkY CaPS WhatSoEVEr

2) Pay attention to the theme of the contest; I will DQ when (and if) necessary; God is a spirit; therefore, writing about Him is defined as spirituality (and not "religious-osity")

3) Spelling is important; grammar is also worth consideration

4) Poem can be of any type - sonnet, free-verse, etc...

5) This is not a PIF contest; winners can spend their points without my blessings

6) Need I say more, but enjoy your faith and use the uncommon common sense that God gave you

PS This is my first contest; I know that I can be tough and picky; so you'll just have to get over it. Judging is subjective and winner(s) are not pre-determined.

  • Final notes:
    Thanks to everyone who entered this contest. I was pleased with the quality and varied writing styles. Some people did not pay attention to spelling and grammar; therefore they were excluded from the list of finalists. After all, if I don't adhere to my own rules...

    Please forgive me for not giving initial comments. I'll come back later.

    Sorry,

    I pulled mine from the contest before I read that you intended to comment. If you want to chase it down on my page, it is "With my eyes open".
