Searching For A Sigh In A Quickie~




I Saw This Quote while browsing in a book store, and I just adored it... so I wrote it down and rushed home to hopefully inspire you with it!




" The caterpillar thought that it had reached the end of its world. Then, it turned into a butterfly "
-proverb-



I am looking to sigh ... I would like you to amaze me in at least 8 lines....no more than 12


contest will end when all 15 spots are filled or the way my quickies have been going lately, when I have enough worthy entries



I hope that you are inspired. Please do not enter unless you are willing to put forth effort using poetic devices and emotion...that is what will win...

    TY for another great contest...
    I chose the entries that I felt expressed most what the quote meant to me while also in keeping with use of poetic device...

    Gold was deep with strong metaphor and imagery

    Silver was magical and true to the quote expressed with lovely imagery and metaphor

    Bronze was true to the quote and written with excellent metaphor imagery and rhyme...

    The 2 HM were unique in expressing the quote while beautifully written...

    Congrats!

    and TY all who entered!
