For everyone who has not yet won any trophy

I'd like to read poems by poeple that haven't won any trophies (gold, silver, bronze) yet. I'm looking for potential new favourites.

You can enter one poem of your choice - either pre-written or new. You choose the topic. You might have a look at my previous contests, my comments and maybe my own poetry though if you'd like to know what kind of poetry I'm interested in.



READ THE FOLLOWING:
- I do NOT want to read erotica.
- sTiCkY cApS will earn you brownie points (I'm not joking!)
- igpay atinlay is pretty cool, too.

Please put your screen name into your author's notes!

Good luck everyone!
Annie

  • Final notes:
    Once again, thank you all for entering my contest! I enjoyed reading your entries very much.
    There were a few more poems that I was considering for a trophy, but I saw that some of you had earned their first trophies while this contest was still running... So congrats on that, but I decided to give the trophies to three people who have not yet won gold, silver or bronze.

    The winners are:
    FIRST PLACE (Gold): "Seasons Beginning"
    SECOND PLACE (Silver): "Fallen"
    THIRD PLACE (Bronze): "waiting for something more then snow."
    FOURTH PLACE (HM): "A Hug For Me"

      Those who only joined AP few days or weeks ago and have not yet had the chance to take part in a lot of contests?

        I guess so. I think its a good idea. In some contests new members get overwhelmed by all these "experienced" poets. Great idea.

          Exactly. I only won my first trophy after being a member for three or four months...

    i think it's going to take you a while to get entries from people who hasn't won any trophy. maybe you should consider inviting people in

      Wow, I didn't think of that. Thanks for the hint. But I also don't want to message dozens of people I don't know... Oh well, I will think of something.
      As far as I can remember, there have always been enough entries in such contests though.

        i don't think messaging people is such a big deal if you approach them in the right way. i've done it before. i for one have never seen a contest like this that had more than 7 entries
