Contest is Over

Contest was judged on November 11, 2008
Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 100, Bronze: 50
Final notes:
Each poem in their rights are winners, but sadly life in contests does come with 1st, 2nd, 3rd... it would have been nice to have read them because they were offered up for reading... on your own page free of contest... if you can understand what i mean.... thanks to all who entered....

A set of pretty porcelain rectangles lie slip through my fingers
Crashing onto the floor with a surprising volume amidst the silence

My Coaster

Big circle of cork to place my drinks,
remembering the stroll through Ikea and shopping for bargains,
