Prompt: Tower of dreams unbidden to the winds
-No adult material.
-No dirty pretty. (2 prior contestants before used dirty pretty with no idea of what it was...if you don't know what dirty pretty means, just ask me to make sure you don't use it!)
-10 words EXACTLY, 1 entry per person. Reserving is okay, as long as you finish it by 2 days. Let me know if you think you'll need more time than that.
-More trophies will be added IF the quality of the poems I get are good.
-IF YOU POST THE PICTURE...credit the artist!

Apparently, there IS a real tower called Tower of Dreams, which I only found out when I went on deviantart AFTER I made up the prompt...quite amazing.
Lavender Butterfly inspired me to make up a contest with a prompt with 'tower' in her poem http://allpoetry.com/poem/4241489.

I have been missing the quickie contests tonight, and I didn't want to miss this one. I actually bypassed that because I was afraid it would all fill up right in front of my eyes and I'd miss another

Haha, it's only a quickie if the contest fills up fast.

thank you
thank you so much for not only awakening my Muse [she has been extremely uncooperative as of late]but there was something about this that just seemed to speak to me. However I never expected the Gold, as it was one of those "spur of the moments" here comes the inspiration and the words and my fingers just started typing away. To say I am surprised is to say the least , but I am definitely honored as well as humbled. Congratulations to all , and to the hostess I want to say...it is nice to participate in a contest that is very obviously hosted with much integrety and where anyone stands a chance to win. I would like it to be known that neither of us has any idea whom the other one is [therefore it is not one of those "my friends will win" hostesses.Thank you again and the pleasure is all mine,
reenie

No problem--I always choose MY favorite poem...if that happens to be a friend's poem, it's not intentional.
The Gold was well-deserved, so kudos.
