Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on November 10, 2007
  • Rewards: Gold: 600, Silver: 350, Bronze: 175, Honorable mention: 4 people
  • Final notes:
    This was a contest of such high quality writing...a blessing and a painful process judging...as there are amazing poems here...so it is a contest of kindred touchings...and in the end the hollow spaces directed my choices...as often it is in the lack of resolution I find my place ....

    "So let love alone, to carry his song,
    candlelight flies,
    and the shadows grow strong,
    and somewhere between them is where I belong,
    to wander at nihgt, and dream, on and on."

    from a song I write....


    thanks so much all of you....
