Pre Writes Contest By Reptile Lady

To celebrate my second year, here today on All Poetry, I wanted to host a Pre Writes contest

 

But there are a few little rules to read before you enter.

 

 

 

 

I must not have already commented on your poems

 

You must not have been awarded Gold, Silver or Bronze with your pre written poems.

 

And finally, the poems you enter must mean something to you.

 

You can enter up to three times.

 

 

 

 

 

Any form, length or style of writes.

 

 

I will comment on closure of this contest

 

best wishes Julie

    I have been so humbled to read all of your beauiful and inspiring writes
