4) only 3 entries per person (no more!)

does it have to be a poem? when writing about memories i find prose much more fluid and an overall better medium for me. i will enter anyway even if it does have to be a poem.
-
I had the same question. Waiting for a reply, but will enter anyway. Cheryl
-
I would prefer it to be a poem but if you write better in that format than you may
Edited on Jul 11, 1:31 because ''. -
I once wrote a poem about my memories symbolizing it all with a quilt. I hardly remember it as it was a long time ago, but that was the first time I ever realized my writing ambitions.
I have since lost that poem...
Anyways, this sounds like a neat contest, perhaps I could throw together a new version of my first poem I ever wrote.
Hope you have fun with this contest, and good luck!!
