This is a contest for love poems, because for some reason there aren't any good-old-fashioned-non-twisted love contests anymore. SO! Here are your options:
1)Have you found your forever-love? Write about it! Did it hit you like a brick, or build over time? It's different for everyone, tell me your story
2) Are you looking for love? How do you feel about it?
Are you hopeful? Impatient? Freaking out about a biological clock?
3) Write about the beginnings of love, in whatever way it strikes you--excitement? hope? fear of falling too hard?
4) Poems about the Nature of Love--describe it, what it is to you, how it builds, how it hits you, etc
5) If you haven't found love, what are you looking for? Tell me about your future husband/wife.
RULES!!
1) Any form
2) Yes! PW allowed! (You've written good stuff in the past. Those who don't like it should be kicked.)
3) No obnoxiously bad spelling, sticky caps, the rest.
4) Don't worry about the option #, they're just to get your muse going.
GOOD LUCK!!
