Open Form Contest for Amera's Birthday!

It's Amera's Birthday on 12/3. Since she is the Form Queen, let's make some great Form Poetry for her to read on her birthday! I am holding 5 contests. I am NOT looking for tributes here, as I have a contest for just those. Here we want to provide good poetry for her birthday. Put your best wishes in the author's notes.

 

This contest is open to any form except the Sonnet, Sestina, and Villanelle, as they have their own contests.

 

Have fun. I am the judge and I'm fickle, so there's no predicting me.

 

Contest is Over

    This was the hardest of my five contests to judge. I love many here.

    1. Heart Flutters is a masterpiece.

    2. Hostage is great in concept and execution.

    3. Love the Night is Beautiful.

    Thanks to all who entered. Amera has a wonderful time reading all of these. That was the idea. Thanks for cooperating.

    Is it okay if I write something using a form I created?
