AMAZE ME!!!!!

 

Hi poets,

 

I just won a PIF in this contest 

 

http://allpoetry.com/contest/2407899

 

with this poem  

 

http://allpoetry.com/poem/4304231

 

 

 

 

Although I won a PIF contest, I do NOT require that the winner of this contest to host another PIF contest, BUT if you would like to give 300 points to someone who would like to host a contest, I have no objections at all.

 

 

What I want with this contest is just good poetry, I'm NOT looking for any particular form.

 

Those who know me know I rhyme and love it, so I would like all forms of poetry.

 

If you write a really good free verse you stand as much chance of winning as a good rhymer. 

 

 

I want originality, beautiful poetry that has a WOW factor and something to sweep me off my feet!!!

 

 

 

The Prompt is

 

 

" KISSES IN THE WIND "

 

 

  

All the usual rules apply and will be adhered to.

 

For this I DO NOT want EROTICA, anything I consider as such will be DQ'd, as will anything else I consider unsuitable. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Good luck to you all... Sue.

 

 

P.S. I have placed comments on all the poems, but will be making fuller comments when I come to the final judging. 

 

 

 

 

Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on June 18, 2008
  • Rewards: Gold: 600, Silver: 300, Bronze: 100, Honorable mention: 6 people
  • Final notes:
    Thank you to everyone who took part in my contest. I have 25 extraordinary poem from 25 outstanding poets. I have agonized over the winners, and Kevin won't let me have 25 gold cups, so I have had to make the choices my self.
    Any of you who know me will know I love sad poems and for me the Gold reduced me to tears.
    The silver was also sad and again touched my heart.
    The Bronze was a free verse that I found touched me in a way I can't explain, but it is a joy to read and I strongly recommend that you all read each others poems.

    I'm sorry about the clappies, once given they cannot be increased, another silly AP rule.

    I will be running other contests and I would love you all to enter again, but it will not be a PIF.

    Thank you for giving me what I ask for. Some poems to AMAZE ME!
