Buttered Promises

I want exactly 15 words
I want good use of placement
I want thinking outside the box
I want you to let this prompt inspire you:

Prompt: buttered promises
(do not use the promt in your poem or your title I reserve the rights)

I do not want:

vulgar language
bashing of others or religion
sticky caps or chat speak

note - there is a difference between cussing and vulgar language, please don't use
your 15 word limit up with words I would not appreciate my children getting a glimpse at should they walk by my desk if you know what I mean.

I will not judge harshly for lack of caps and punctuation, I understand that is a right of the poet. ( But if you are going to use it, use it correctly!)
I am looking for poetry... give me your best!

Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on April 21
  • Rewards: Gold: 400, Silver: 200, Bronze: 100, Honorable mention: 2 people
  • Final notes:
    Thank you all for some wonderful entries, There were way too many great poems, making the judging difficult. Those of you who got trophies all could have recieved gold in my opinion and I ending up getting a bit of help from those in my home to make this final decision because it was just that tough for me to decide. There is now a limit to 5 HM's on this site or I would have just given you all one because there were no poems undeserving in this contest ( granted one of you went over the word limit, but still a good poem... lol). I can't thank you all enough for taking this prompt and running with it. Some of you really do think outside the box and that excites me, makes me want to create another contest. I pray you all found this contest to have been judged fairly and in a timely manner. God Bless and have a wonderful day! Suzi
