Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on February 8, 2008
- Rewards: Gold: 500, Silver: 200, Bronze: 100, Honorable mention: 5 people
- Final notes: This was unbelievably hard to judge! I think I've had just about everyone of the finalists on the top spot. I've had to increase the number of honourable mentions, as it just wouldn't have been fair to miss anyone of the finalists out.
Thank you all so much for entering my contestand for being so patient with me while I've been judging. You've all been so amazing!!! Congrats to all the winners!

Darianna,
how sweet and thoughtful you are to let us know that this will be judged at a later date. It's understandable you should like to concentrate on your brother for a few days, go make some memories you want to keep, our poems and our poetic community will be here ready for when you return,
love and light,
Yvette
