Quickie; 10 poets, 15 lines, picture/quote prompt-- ENTER NOW

Okay guys, here's another quickie for ya! I really like these, they bring forth some GREAT writes in small amount of words, & that's what I would like again.

I would like to do something a bit different this time.
You have 3 options for this;

Option 1-- Use the picture on my page to be inspired to write a poem in 15 lines.

Option 2-- Use the quote prompt to be inspired in 15 lines.

Option 3-- Combine both the quote and picture together to create a masterpiece in 15 lines.

For this, I want lots of beautiful imagery, deep meaning, emotion & thought, metaphor. If your poem does not include any of the above mentioned, I have the right to remove your poem if it does not pertain to the prompt.

Please, I want your BEST inspiration! I want originality. Think outside the box. No cliche please.

QUOTE;

"TRUE LOVE IS WHEN YOU SHED A TEAR AND STILL WANT HIM. IT'S WHEN HE IGNORES YOU AND YOU STILL LOVE HIM. IT'S WHEN HE LOVES ANOTHER BUT YOU STILL SMILE AND SAY 'I'M HAPPY FOR YOU.' WHEN ALL YOU REALY DO IS CRY...AND CRY.

Rules***

-No profanity
-No bashing other poems
-Please let me know which option you choose in your Author's notes

That's all & HAVE FUN!!!! Pen me brilliance!

***More points will be added later***

  • Final notes:
    Wow this was so tough to judge. You all wrote so beautifully, and each piece touched me in different ways. I could relate to all in my own way. But gold really touched home, I felt I could most relate to their piece and it's exactly how I've been feeling. Each of you are all gold winners in my eyes, man I wish they had only GOLDS!!!! Keep writing friends... you are each so very blessed!!
