I need help my people poets. The greatest creative minds in the world of rhym.
I need a shorter name for my Garden/Poetry business and a short poem to go with it. I may mix and match name with poem. It depends.

Please keep all works public friendly.
Please make it readable. I'm not overly concerned with spelling as long as I know what your saying. Spell check is ok with me.
Put idea business name as your title followed by short poetic
verse.
Please put your pen name in Author notes and any little ideas you may have mixing poetry and garden work.

Prompt:
Think Gardens and Poetry by the sea. Grown and spoken word performances available.
Sixteen years experiance with gardening and landscaping.
Almost thirty years writing poetry. Five yrs. performing.

Vegetable to flower gardens for the wealthy and not so wealthy. Both are offered of the poetic garden variety.

Any poet who I use title and slogen will be notified and awarded an extra 500 on the side later this spring.
I won't forget yah.

This contest is open to all ages. If it takes off and I need help I have plans to hire a young poet if need. Only poets,
musicans and artist's will be working for and with me.

This is my first contest. Hope I did this right.

Thank-you all...
Ned The Poet
