Eternal Love (Quote Prompt)

"See there's this place in me where your fingerprints still rest, your kisses still linger, and your whispers softly echo. It's the place where a part of you will forever be a part of me." source unknown


Silent Hawk, my Ap grandson, and I have decided to host a contest on the eternal nature of love. We will both serve as judges, sharing equally in the responsibilities. Thus, your entries will garner two individual comments.

Sometimes you love someone you cannot be with, but that doesn’t lessen the love you feel deep within. The feelings you share linger long after you are apart from one another. Feelings that bring laughter, smiles and yes sometimes tears with each lasting wonderful memory. We would like for you to share with us your thoughts and feelings on an eternal love you share for another. Write for the one who truly rules within the chambers of your heart. Although you be separated by choice, circumstance or by distance, share vulnerably of all within you. Sandy

Rules

1. No chat talk or writing like this XoNo
2., No erotica (sensual if fine)
3. Have fun
4. Rhyme or non rhyme
5. Any form

Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on December 6, 2008
  • Rewards: Gold: 500, Silver: 400, Bronze: 300, Honorable mention: 17 people
  • Final notes:
    I would like to thank each and every one of you. Your enties were wonderful and it was very difficult to chose only three top winners. All were heartfelt and touched my heart in some special way. I so enjoyed reading your poems. So many are away from those that remain in their hearts.
    The honorable mentions are in no particular order. A message from the other judge, Silent Hawk follows. Thank you for collaborating with me on this lovely contest.
    Blessings To All, Sandy

    Your words pierced my heart, rung true in my spirit. Yes, each of us knows of an Eternal Love. Though it be the Great Spirit, a mate, a child or dear friend.
    I applaud each of you for your enteries. Niaish!
    May the Great Spirit walk with you always, giving voice to your thoughts.

    Respectfully,
    Silent Hawk

    I may have to pass on this one. The only fingerprint I can still feel is where the Dr. pressed in on my hip.
