QUICKIE,QUICKIE! 10/10 lines/ will judge as soon as I have 10 poems!

Im-a-Tree by Malhyan at Devianart
Here we go again. My favorite kind of contest!
10 poets reserve a spot.
Image goes up when filled.
10 lines exactly!
20 minutes to write me a GREAT VERSE!

The best poetry comes from a snippet of memory buried inside your creative minds.

Use the Image as a springboard and try to write out-of-the-box.
PLease use spell check and it is fun to comment on the other entries.
Maybe now that the prompt is up we will get 3 more entries, so take your time writing! LOL

PLEASE DO NOT APPLAUD OR RESPOND TO COMMENTS, until after I judge.
Have fun!

Linda or Shana (one and the same!)

    I didn't want to award the same people who also had their poems in this contest. So I chose fresh writes that were really great! Congratulations, and next time, I won't be ill, on pain killers, and will do this the right way! LOL
