Come into the mountains...

Hello Wonderful Poets

I recently won a Quickie Contest
hosted by the lovely Aurora Ceres
with my poem titled In Plain Sight so it
is my turn to host a similar contest.

10 Poets
35 Words - no more - no less

I will judge tonight -
you have approximately 12 hours to write.

Gold Winner will be asked to host a similar contest.

YOUR PROMPT:

Come into the mountains, dear friend
Leave society and take no one with you
But your true self
Get close to nature
Your everyday games will be insignificant
Notice the clouds spontaneously forming patterns
And try to do that with your life.

~Susan Polis Schutz

THE RULES:

1. Proper spelling, grammar, and punctuation
are required and WILL matter
2. Please, no sticky caps
3. No cutting, suicide, or self-mutilation
4. No erotica, tastefully sensual is ok
as long as it fits the subject matter.
5. Step out of the box and learn.
6. If you use an image, please credit accordingly
7. Please left align - unless your poem
specifically calls for a different format.
8. Enjoy - It's ALL about the poetry.


I am looking forward to some beautiful writes.
