Trying hard not to fall in love with someone?
(for any reason)
Maybe the time just isn't right.
Maybe one or both of you is married
or
perhaps you are in love but know it can go nowhere ...
or
Your love is falling apart.
Write about it in 32 words of Rhyme (or less)
Sensual is fine
no cursing
no erotica

must rhyme
This can be muse only; doesn't have to be real.

Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on September 19, 2008
- Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 200, Bronze: 100
- Final notes: First of all, thanks to those of you who entered and obeyed the rules; i.e. word count and rhyme. I judged on rhyme and emotion; what the poem made me feel. Gold was given because not only did it make me feel deep sadness, but the rhyme and meter were gorgeous. Silver tugged at my heart and bronze deeply saddened me as well as rhyming well. For those of you who didn't win, I hope to see you in my next contests and for those of you who didn't obey the rules ... sigh. What can I say? You B Bad!
