Okay;; My mom has this apple box with a million different business like cards in the center and on each card is a different quote. You can insert what ever card you want shown for that day in the front and it then becomes an art of decoration. I was walking in my kitchen and read the card that was out today and it struck my interest; So I decided to read some more. These were some of the ones that really got to me or got me thinking, I'd like for you to write a poem based on one of quotes; how it makes you feel, what it makes you think about, etc. Other then that, there are no other guidelines. =) Oh, you can enter as many times as you want!
As for the options--
Option One::
There is no revenge so complete as forgiveness. --Josh Billings
Option Two::
Good words are worth much and cost little. --William Feather
Option Three::
No one is useless in the world who lightens the burden of it for anyone else. --Charles Dickens.
Option Four::
A man cannot be comfortable without his own approval. --Mark Twain
Option Five::
What lies behind us and what lies before is are tiny matters compared to what lies within is. --Ralph Waldo Emerson
Option Six::
Difficulties are meant to rouse, not discourage. The human spirit is to grow strong by conflict. --William Ellery Channing
Option Seven::
Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadow. --Hellen Keller
Hopefully one of them caught your attention and you will enter. =) My contests never have the best of luck so Im hoping for some good poetry to read this time.
