I like good poetry
Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on December 2, 2008
- Rewards: Gold: 400, Silver: 100, Bronze: 50, Honorable mention: 5 people
- Final notes: This contest was rather disappointing. There was a very large entry, but only a very few poems were about the topic, which was "seashells." There were not enough entries on the topic for all the honourable mentions available.

Mr.Dunn
I don't know if this is normal but it is two, almost three days since this closed and not a single poem has been reviewed.
I am withdrawing my entry as of this note.
I hope nothing unfortunate has happened to you.

Lovely Comment
Thank you so much for the honor of Gold . I so appreciate it coming from you. Thank you for hosting this great contest. A fun contest to write for. Take care, Sandy
Congratulations to all the winners. -
You didn't make that completely clear. The title was seashells, but all you said in the directions was that you like good poetry.
