Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on August 20
- Rewards: Gold: 1300, Silver: 800, Bronze: 500, Honorable mention: 5 people
- Final notes: Hi all and thank you all for entering so many beautiful poems. It has taken me some time to read them all but being so many, I would have found it hard to comment on each and every one in the time we have to judge so commented only on the finalist. I do wish i had time for all but there were so many, it would not be possible. To all, I thank you so much. Every piece had something very special to say, and every piece has left something with me. Finally, I would like to congratulate all the winners and say how much i enjoyed all your writes...Keep up the great work because you are all so wonderful at what you do.
