This contest is fairly flexible. Take the question "Why do they call it falling when it feels like flying?" and write a poem in response to it. You can take it either literally or metaphorically!
Rules:
No TyPiNg Lyk DiS
Please spell check everything!!
Make sure that grammar enhances the poem and doesn't hinder it.

- Final notes: First of all, I would like to say that I know that I took forever to judge this contest. I had actually read the entries and put it off for a long time because honestly the poems don't fit the contest that well. All of them. I am very disappointed in this contest. I judged this as best as I can.
