  • Contest was judged on November 11, 2008
  • Rewards: Gold: 400, Silver: 300, Bronze: 100
  • Final notes:





    After a long wait the contest is judged.

    I was worried that I wouldn't have enough points to add more trophies, but in the end it all worked out!

    Many entries Missed the finalist list because they did not read and obeyed the few simple rules [mentioning your poetic form]

    Congratulations to the winners:

    GOLD

        Ah but don't you know, Love ...

        my muse is a-playin' in the garden of Eden!

        my inner bed ... and then after a-weedin'
        to let Love sprout from needin'...

    When you say poetic form, do you mean a fixed form poem, such as a sonnet or villanelle or something like that? Or are you just referring to metaphors and poetic language? celtic queen

    YAY! I just wrote a sonnet, and it fits this pretty beautifully! I haven't been here for a long time, so it's nice to know that there are still plenty of decent contests!
