PIF - Bring A Quote

I just won Gold in Heavenly Angel's contest

http://allpoetry.com/contest/2376852

So I am here to pay it forward, the winner here is encouraged to do the same with a similar contest of their own.

For this contest I want you to write a poem in 15 lines or less based on a quote of your choosing.

You must name the author of the quote (if other than your own original quote). I will be checking.

Do not use profanity or self harm themes here.

Use imagination, originality and poetic devices to capture the soul of your chosen quote.

Most of all have fun

**** I am now allowing Pre-writes here, however they must be no older than June this year and must fit the contest ****
