ARGH!!!! My Muse has gone AWOL...

sooo...I need you to help me find her ladyship, by entering your most creative poem.

No rules really, but please make sure you tag your poems appropriately because this contest is open to all ages, and no epics (over 40lines) because I get bored....unless of course your poem is utterly unbelievably brilliant, then I might forgive you...

Blessings,

Luck.

Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on August 2, 2008
  • Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 100, Bronze: 50, Honorable mention: 7 people
  • Final notes:
    WOW! this has been such a fantastic contest. I've really enjoyed reading all your poems, you people are just such amazing poets! It really humbles me that I can share space with such talent.
    As always, an extremely difficult contest to judge, and I wish ***(cliche warning)*** I could give everyone trophies....
    HM are in no particular order.

    Thanks so much to all of you for taking the time to enter my contest,

    Blessings,

    Luck.

      The muse went away with out asking for leave sweetie... God I am old...it goes like this
      Air force and Army have Absent with out official leave
      which gets you the Stockade. Navy and Marine Corp have UA Unauthorized Absence which gets you sent to the Brigg. Confusing isn't it these metaphors =)
