I was browsing the Internet to find prompts but there are so many great ones out there and I am in the mood for reading lots of great poetry, so I decided not to limit you.
So the idea is you find your own picture or quote and use it to inspire you.
It is not laziness on my part. I have plenty of great prompts if you would like some, all you have to do is message me and I will send you one very happily. I just wanted to give everyone a little bit of freedom.
The usual AP rules apply.
Erotica is alright as long as it is tasteful and labelled.
Enter as many as you would like.
If entering a prewrite please make sure it fits with this contest.
and Most importantly please include your prompt or a link to it in your notes
Hint 1- I really appreicate personal poetry and stuff with lots of emotion.
Hint 2- Some great websites include;
http://www.deviantart.com/
www.flickr.com
http://findquotations.com/
Hint 3- I will favour fresh poems especially those not entered in lots of different contests.
Have fun and don't hesitate to message me if you want anything.
I will look forward to commenting on everypiece when the contest is closed.
P.s, Points will go up a fair bit (if I get the entries) as I have had a bit of a commenting frenzy lately

I wrote "Addiction to flying free" The prompt was a picture I painted of my horse. Unfortunatly I am unable to provide you with the picture.
