First lets start with the rules -
All site rules apply.
No prewrites allowed.
No line limit but I get bored easy if the poem isn't good.
I don't care how you write love, dark, etc but just do the song some justice.
In your author notes put what song you picked.
Now on for the contest.
Be inspired by my playlist right here :

If the link doesn't work I have it on my bio page but you'll need to open up two windows. ![]()
I have a HUGE variety of songs so I really hope that you're able to find something and if you can't well IM me the song you're inspired by and I'll listen and see if I want to add it on my list or not.
Prizes may or may not increase.
Good luck and have fun!
Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on November 17, 2008
- Rewards: Gold: 600, Silver: 500, Bronze: 400, Honorable mention: 5 people
- Final notes: The gold wrote a stunning Villanelle Inspired by Cohen's Hallelujah that floored me and almost left me speechless.
The silver wrote a humor poem inspired by the mean kitty that was so funny and the flow of it was perfect.
The bronze wrote a beautiful and touching love poem inspired by Don't Wanna Miss A Thing.
Every poem in this contest is worth reading and commenting on. All of you did outstanding so that's why I am closing it early and awarding you all something.
Tears in Rain you'll be getting 30 points but because of the limit of hm's now I can't give you one..sorry. I really did find your poem really funny though.
Around Christmas I'm going to be hosting another contest similar to this but with holiday songs so be on the look out!
Thanks once again all. I appreciate everyones hard work with their poem
Hugs,
Kari
