I will not weigh everyone down
with a long list of rules .
We are all adults and I trust we
all will act accordingly.
I do however have a few minor
things to ask of you all.
1 ~ Please choose something YOU BELIEVE TO BE YOUR BEST WORK or SOMTHING NEW IF YOU WISH AS WELL!!!
Cussing is alright, I think I can handle it...
no limit to the RAW-ness of your poem...
2 ~ Please no hard to read backgrounds.
that alittle annoying
and not to mention distracting.
4 ~ I will limit you to no length but please
keep it within reason.
If you think its really excellent
i wont mind the lenth....
5 ~ I DoNt MiNd ThIs
it really doesnt bother me
I do it myself alot, So feEl frEe...
6 ~ SOMETHING SAD..............
HEART TUGGING..............
JUST SOMETHING EMOTIONAL............
SOMETHING WITH FEELING..........
For this contest,
all I want from you is your best write.
No limits - no restrictions. new writes ok also
- Be creative.
Be original.
Be unique.
- No forced rhyme.
No rambling of words -that's called a rant,
not a poem.
If you rhyme, be good.
If you do it freely, be amazing.

- Bashing = Instant Disqualification.
- Curse all you want. I can't care less.
i want to feel the emotion in it
i want to understand it.
I will not ask you to impress me,
nor will I ask for your best.
I know you all always give nothing less;
because simply you are,
in my opinion,
the best of the best!
I hope you each find inspiration
within your own individual style.
I will set this contest to close in
one week,
though I may extend
it to a full two weeks.
Also, never a requirement, but I
do encourage everyone to indulge
in and enjoy one another's work
compliment others as it is polite!
I wish you all luck as I look forward to
reading some wonderful poetry!!!

Yes to all the people that have asked THE LITTLE GIRL IN THE PHOTO IS MY BLUE-EYED BEAUTY SELENA
shes is 2 1/2 ....
and I'm blessed to be her Mommy
Thank you to my GOLD winner.... your poem AMAZED ME... beautifully ended with a sigh of relief... and I chose it because it touched my heart as I remember the night my babygirl was quiet and how afraid I was till I saw her sleeping silently in her pink crib...
I picked her up and held her that night
kissed her about 100 times... thanking God that she was mine and she was healthy
now almost 3 years old, shes my star ...
Thank you all
