all poets love to roll words around in their mouth ~take 2~

ok all i have done this before... well sort of

short and sweet this is a word bank but i want the poems entered to be extreemly metiphorical. and must discribe an intence emotion. do not tell me what emotion you are trying to convay i want to guess.

i leave long comments and promise to do so on every poem.

i would like all poems labled aproperately as long as the labling doesnt influence my guess... if its a dark poem you dont need to tell me that i want to guess that. but if its adult mark it and let the young be warned.

anything goes as far as subject and language goes as long as the young are protected and the warning lables are all in place. i am old enough so you wont be burning my eyes

i do a peoples choice award so you will need to read each others to cast your vote. and as long as your there to read ... wright something, and no one liners, give usable critiques of your fellow competters... the best critic will be rewarded too...

now for the words

Pylons
Doorknobs
Ricochet
Fog-horn
Smoke-rings


have fun and get out your quills and parchment and wright your souls for me to judge
oh and by the way i am a very fare judge who cant spell so i wont even notice your spelling errors

  • Final notes:
    i had so few entries that i didnt hand out my intended hm's i appoligise for this. but you all deserve them. now for the winners i did choose, i think the way the word bank was most creative in your poems. i took a long time in judging and i am sorry about that but i really felt that these poems demanded my attention and my investment of time to judge them properly. i was VERY impressed with every entry and you all made it very hard to pick faves... i hope to have all of you back for my next contest. i have the obligation of a pif to host and as soon as i can think of a worthy idea i will be running that one... so please come and write for me again in the future i have truely enjoyed all of your poems. thank you all for entering my contest

    LOVE IS


    What is love, Love can't see you and you can't see it
    Love is a sneaky thing I guess sort of slick

    Love can hurt and Love can heal
    Love can be born and Love can kill

    Love has won and Love has lost
    Love can catch and Love can toss

    Love can stand and Love can fall
    Love is small and Love is tall

    Love is right and Love is wrong
    Love is weak and Love is strong

    Love is up and Love is down
    Love can smile and Love can frown

    Love is good and Love can be bad
    Love is quite and Love can brag

    Love is a little and Love is a lot
    Love contiues and Love stops

    Love can hope and Love can dream
    Love can talk and Love can sing

    Love can be a word or Love can be a ring
    Love can be nothing or Love can be everything

    So where is this thing we call Love
    I dont know the only real love we have comes from above...
