  • Rewards: Gold: 400
  • Final notes:
    besides the three trophy winners, the finalists are not listed in any particular order. if you are one of the contest finalist, please do not remove your poem. I'll be sending another note through this page with another contest open only to the finalists of "sound of..." contests. Amazing entries....the longer the list of finalists, the harder it is to judge, and I think this contest has the longest list I have ever seen in my contests. Thank you for your amazing entries!
