Welcome to the EXTREME WEATHER contest |
A lot of us have some kind of odd weather experience to share. If you do here is your chance to write out what happened in a poem. Have you been through a tornado, blizzard, earthquake, etc? What feelings did you go through? Did you help anyone during the weather, or after? Do you have pictures that YOU took? Share them with your poem, but please let it be YOUR pictures and I would suggest that you place your copyright on them. |
Prizes : Gold - 500 points, plus poem is spotlighted on the front page. Silver - 300 points, plus poem is spotlighted on the front page. Bronze - 200 points, plus poem is spotlighted on the front page. Two Honorable Mentions for 30 points, and poem featured on the side worth 3 clicks. Three or more people might get 10 points but no trophy but their poem will get put in the rewards section. This contest will be judged in one week or by the 25th. JustSimplyLissa will be my co judge.
Rules :
All site rules apply No more then 40 lines IF possible. Please mark it in the right catergory. Any kind of form is fine. One poem per person. No prewrites. Please make all poems readable.

Interesting... I do have pictures of the lovely snow that dumped on us on New Year's Eve, Day, and on to Jan 2... but not sure if I can write about it, unless I'm cursing the shovelling that I had to do.....

Thank you so much for the Gold ...
the glitter and the spotlight ... I enjoyed entering this contest, for I experienced such deep and endopathic sensations during the storms in the Western Cape of South Africa.
Congratulations to the other winners and thank you too to your co-judge, Lissa.
Blessed be.
Love
