For Past Dalaney Contest Gold Winners

This contest is for
anyone who has won gold
in my previous contests.

 

 

10,000 points for this Gold winner

 

 

(In author notes, please put
which contest you won gold)


There are only
going to be 20 spots available

and NO reservations


.

This will be a free verse contest.


There is no prompt.

You will have to rely on your own
creative muse



You were gold winners for a
reason



My only rule is that you do not go
over 25 lines






I will comment after judging

 

(I plan on holding contests for my silver, bronze, and HM winners soon)

Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on June 16
  • Rewards: Gold: 10000, Silver: 500, Bronze: 350
  • Final notes:
    Choices are difficult to make when every 'choice' seems to be the perfect one. You all entered extremely well written poetry - but more than that, each entry had it's own 'feeling' and believe me, I felt each one to the bone. You are all Gold winners...you are all poets to be recognized. I thank each one of you for entering, and to Matt, Proph, and Jeff....merci...merci...xoxo

      me thinks you have a gold in there somewhere

      • i had to think about that
        lol i had totally forgotten about that poem.
        okay i will try to write something

  • Oh hi Lane, sounds a great idea though I doubt I will be in it. I can only write when I'm 'hit' with inspiration (and I'm seriously lacking in that department now) - which I think you know

    I believe I have won gold in one of your contest
    however I dont believe I could pull another one off
    against the many talented poets who write poetry
    in a style you are accustomed too

      i like what i like when i like it, Mally...
      please don't think i am pigeon-holed into a certain
      genre or style when it comes to my tastes in poetry.
      you would do me a great honor by entering

  • Ond day I might be good enough to win something in your contests

      so smug you will write your little heart out...right? hurry up...deadline is coming

  • Ahhh me.
    In a fit of unsettled depression one night I deleted all my poems here. They no longer exist. So, I accept and live with the pain of knowing I could have been great, but I didn't believe.

    Maybe another time, my Lady, another time.

    i'd enter this contest, but the only bit of gold I ever got from you was that gold-plated bit of advice about cleaning my socks twice a week by beating them on the rocks, and then 6 months of complete silence to figure out how to come to grips with a new cleaning technique.

    have fun with this one, Judge Lane - i'm sure everyone else is giddier than a Hershey girl with gold-tinted braces and a breeze up their skirts... There's a couple of good ones already posted.

    Pulled my one and only gold from you awhile back...
    Nice gesture though to give special recognition and
    opportunity to earn that top appreciation once more.
    Best to everyone...Blue
