Shh - Don't tell anyone

Do you have a crush on someone?  Are you keeping it to yourself?

Feel free to continue doing so - but here is your opportunity to write that special secret someone a poem and tell them how you feel.



Rules:

- Left aligned


- Plain background (and if it is too bright I will not read)


- Show & Tell (how can you not tell in a contest like this)


- Prose/Free Verse preferred, but if you can rhyme with skill       feel free to do so.


- I will allow for more entries if necessary.


- I may or may not comment on each entry depending on time constraint.


- I would prefer 'crush' writes about someone you are not known to be in a relationship with. This is not THAT love poetry contest.


- You don't have to name the person you have a crush on if you don't want to.

Have fun - Be nice - Be respectful

&&& Woo that special someone

    Well since I told Ed I loved him in a comment the other day I suppose I'm not too good at secret crushes.

    Have fun with this! (is it Friday yet?)

      How is it revealing something new if you enter an old poem? It defeats the purpose.
