"Trees are poems that earth writes upon the sky,
We fell them down and turn them into paper,
That we may record our emptiness."
We fell them down and turn them into paper,
That we may record our emptiness."
--Kahlil Gibran
Tree Poetry: That is your prompt.
The only requirements are:
- Readable presentation on clean background.
- No auto-centered poetry (my pet peeve).
- No unskilfull formal or rhyming poetry.
- Literary device.
Update:
I don't mind people reserving contest slots but please note that I will pull all reserves when the contest reaches its capacity of twenty [20] entries. Thanks.
