The Blue Series....Contest One

 
I love the color blue, and so thought
I would start a small series of
Blue poetry contests...
 
If you have a quirky side,
then, I know you will do well... 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
"Blue Pigs"




this is your prompt

I prefer free verse, but you are
welcome to submit any form,
as long as it is done
well.

I do not like rules,
but, I do have a few specifications:

PLEASE, NO RESERVATIONS

PLEASE, EDIT YOUR WORK BEFORE SUBMITTING

PLEASE, USE PLAIN BACKGROUND/NO IMAGES

PLEASE, LABEL APPROPRIATELY

TRY TO STAY WITHIN A 10 TO 20 LINE LIMIT


I hope you have fun


Love, Lane

    i had a blue girl friend once, but the green sparkle outfit and cowboy hat she wore when she drove her space ship at night was just too much for me!
