I see that many of you do not post what style you are using in your AN, this is needed else I won't have any clue and can't judge your enterie, so in short, write the style or form you are using or get DQ.
So I tried looking into what Haiku is, and from what I understood its just a really short poem, but lately I have seen more poems in weird shapes and forms.
So basically what this contest is about is you to write me a poem in any of the forms you know. If you know them all, post them all, if you only know one, post just one, there's no posting limit.
Your options;
1# A happening that changed your way of living, thinking or perspective.
2# A loss of someone close.
3# Dedicate a poem to someone, either a member on this page or a friend.
4# Write about autum.
5# Write about the colors of autum (Brown, green, yellow etc.)
6# Frogs and ducks! Write me something cute
Rules; Do we have to?
1. No bashing of any kind
2. No chat lingo
3. No sticky cap
4. No adult language, that includes erotic.
5. Put both the form you use and the option in your AN
6. Have fun and make me confused.
