Write me 5 lines
Each line should be no more than 10 words long (none of these super long lines please cricketjeff!)
Minimal adjectives or "feelings" - use objects and images to bring out emotion in the reader.
Please do not tell me something is sad. Show me an image which will make me sad.
Any theme goes as long as it is inspired by Rain
Do not reach for the obvious. Surprise me with your original creative minds
No backgrounds which show rain
No images uploaded with poems
Use font colours I can read against your backgrounds
Early entries not recommended. Edit your poem before entering.
Have fun with your images. Try to think of things nobody else will.

I think it rather naughty to accuse me in this way
It's not as though my lines are over long
But rather I have such a lot I feel I ought to say
Ten words a line, well Emmy that's so wrong!
But never fret I'll overcome and fix your little scheme
I'll just ensure each word's so long that you are sure to scream

damn I knew youd find a way of beating the system. 16 letter long words per line. yes sounds like you. i bet they rhyme perfectly though. I'll go have a look

congrats to the winners, well done. I look forward to receiving the comment on my entry so I might review what was lacking within my piece.

rain
I wish it would solidify
into glass pellets
hanging
so I could sit here
inside
and string a necklace
alone
