Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on July 4, 2008
- Rewards: Gold: 450, Silver: 200, Bronze: 100, Honorable mention: 4 people
- Final notes: WOAH!!!
This was a mega hard one to judge, almost all of you deserved a place, I needed to hand out more silvers then you could have all had something!!!
The Honourable mentions were all fantastic attepmts - Lamplit Journey was orignally bronze, and Conflict originally silver, so I thought they deserved HMs at the least. The last two really hit me and were fabulous efforts: giant the only haiku and If i had a nickle a very hardhitting piece.
Bronze is a fantastic ode to the elements, wicked write;
Silver was fantastic! Just knocked my socks off. I'm not surewhy or how, as in, who'd have thought a grey grey poem would almost win one of my contests? But it was really fantastic. And, finally...
Gold.
Gold was always gold, I felt it deserved that title. A deep and wellput view on a love life... It hit me the hardest and ... just wowed me. Like so many other entries, lol.
Thanks for entering everyone! I enjoyed reading each and every poem THANKYOU ALL for making this a worthwhile contest!!
Looking Forward to your talents in the future:
