Why?... Read below:
An option contest that gives a gold, silver and bronze per option. This was inspired by my last option contest -- there were quite a few poems I felt deserved the recognition for the prompt. So, I thought I'd try this out and see how it works. All together the total number of points given out is 900 points and 3 gold trophies - 300 points and 3 silver trophies and 225 points and 3 bronze trophies for a total of 1425 points and 9 top trophies. This is not including the honorable mentions added during the contest. I hope to have 15 entries per option. Rules for all three Options is ONE: Follow the prompts. Otherwise be free to be the poets you are... If it inspires you to write a million lines then do it.... Or write one line... anything you want. If I give any H.M. awards they will be reserved for any fresh write poems. You can only enter 1 poem per option-- but your welcome to enter each option.
Thanks and good luck!

I enjoyed all the writes a great deal and really believe all the poems are exceptional. As much as I'd like to give everyone a shiny trophy I simply can not. I did however bump it up to 10 honorable mentions.

To the winners:
You all did a beautiful job. I thought about the prompt and what it means to me. Gold, Silver, Bronze and a few of the Honorable Mentions 'exceeded' my expectations. I awarded strictly in regards to the prompt first, then the poetic skill second.
There is no order at all to honorable mentions.
