Heylo, heylo everyone 
I will be leaving tomorrow on vacation for a week and I wanted to hold a contest so that I can have loads to read when I get back
This should be fun! I want loads of entries! Haha. So anyone who stops by this contest page! Enter! 
Hehehe
Let's just get right to it then, shall we?

Okay So those were your picture prompts. Look beyond the picture! Show me with your words what I cannot see!
Time for some Title Prompts. You may use these as your titles or you can just be inispired by them
2. Song Title Prompts:

3.) Word Bank:

Stream
Eternal
Mystery
Desire
Light

Midnight
Heart

Death
Those were the words. Please use at least 10 Good luck
4.) Write me a dedication poem to someone here on AP. Please mention who the poem is made for in your Author Notes.
5.) I will be traveling to see my father. So pen me some beautiful poetry about parents. A father in particular.
Okay, so those are the options. Now, please be aware that you can mix all the options. By doing that, that's even better for me, the writes become even more interesting to read and judge
Just make sure you mention all the options that you have chosen and mixed in your Author Notes.
Now it is time for the rules. Don't worry, there are not many! Acutally, hardly any at all!
Rules:
1.) No Sticky Caps
2.) No cussing/swearing
3.) Be nice to the other contestants please! And read and comment on their work if you can! It won't hurt
4.) Only 2 entries allowed per person. So no more than 2 please.
5.) You may reserve, but for the love of God, come back in time to complete so that I may judge on the closing day.
6.) Mention the options that you have written about and/or mixed in your Author Notes.
7.) Please credit the arists in your Author Notes.
8.) If your poem is adult/sensual. Please mark as such.
9.) Follow the above 8 rules
See? What'd I tell you? Hardly any at all! Anything goes! Oh just one more.
HAVE A BLAST!
Any sort of poetry is allowed. Free-verse, Rhymes, anything, anything, anything. I don't want novels though! So yeah, basically, nothing TOO long please?!
I will add HMs later on, depending on the amount of entries I receive
Just so I know that you've read all the rules and everything else here. (I'm sorry, I know it was long), please mention along with your option name and numbers, this "I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts" You will be disqualified if all the above rules are not followed. So please, read carefully, follow the rules and pen me absoulte brilliance. I know you all can
Okay then. Get to writing!
