Contest i deserve gold by Nicolette at All poetry

I won Sonja’s PIF contest “I deserve a gold”
http://allpoetry.com/contest/2417197

Now it's my turn to pay it forward.

the picture isn’t the prompt; it’s just there because I love white flowers,
especially calla lilies, as well as flowers metaphors

the title of the contest is your prompt (see the rules below):

Rules:
- Only good pre-written poetry with no gold trophies
- Poem should not be in more than 2 contests (in total - this one included)
- No epics – keep it tight
- Winner to host a similar PIF too

Depending on the quality of entries I might add bonus points.
Imagine you’re at the Olympics - only the best walks away with a medal!

Contest is Over

Contest was judged on August 12, 2008
Rewards: Gold: 400, Silver: 200, Bronze: 100, Honorable mention: 2 people
Final notes:
This one filled up very quickly and provided some enjoyable reading. Unfortunately I could not consider some entries as the poems were in more than 2 contests (previous or current). Sorry but I had to apply the rules.

Congratulations to the winners. Will the winner please host a similar PIF contest. Thank you for your support, poets!

Hi dear friend - good luck with this...

Popped in after a few days to have a look at my messages and saw this. I figured why not

Hope all is well at your side of the world!
