"I love words and the power they have, or give, to those who master them."
This is simple, choose ONE of the twenty titles and use that title for your poem.
Free verse, rhyme, prose, whatever I don't' care, I enjoy all.
Rules:
Choose ONE title from the list of twenty and use it as the title for your poem.
Be brilliant and entertaining as this is your chance to shine.
Use poetic freedom but be advised, I do have certain tastes.
Remember to label appropriately.
All titles are open and not exclusive after being reserved and/or used
(meaning: you can use a title even if someone else has used it already.)

2. What's say we dip our cookies in the Milky Way.

Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on July 4
- Rewards: Gold: 5000, Silver: 2000, Bronze: 1000, Honorable mention: 5 people
- Final notes: Well, first of all I would like to thank everybody for participating.
Secondly, I was pleased with most of the entries, some were a bit sluggish and well… boring and then again others were downright brilliant, but I did have to make choices and they were not easy that’s for sure…well, maybe one.
Any-way, thanks again people, and keep honing those poetic skills, keep witling those sentences, continue refining to remove the dross and I’ll catch you next time.
Oh, and a quick plug for my other contest in the “Titles Galore” series

Relax, eat some chocolate, have a coffee, watch a movie, do something pleasurable (whatever that may be) then coax your muse out to play.
