Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on January 4, 2005
- Rewards: Gold: 400
- Final notes: I have really enjoyed running this contest
I don’t necessarily choose the best poem
(they are all the best in my eyes)
I choose what affects me the most and comes
From the heart.
All of the poems submitted are wonderful
I have re read them quite a few times.
The three I have chosen I kept coming back to.
I choose the way the poet writes, the more they
Write from the heart the more I am drawn to it
As you will see from my previous love contests

Excellent
I love the picture and the sparkles!! -
i think this is a GREAT idea for a contest ... good luck with it. and i think mine goes astrey from the topic, because it is about a lost love. so im sorry if it isnt exactly what you were looking for.

Jennifer,
Are you open to a humble haikuist joining your ranks of contest hopefuls?? I´ve writen my first love-ku...and I feel quite connected to it. I´d love to share it with you (and your contest)...if you´re open to it?
Thanks!

dear smallmonk, I do not understand haikus my friend, it would not be fair to you as I would not be able to judge it, if I let you place one there others would follow, that's why I have listed the style of poems, I'm sorry about that, there are contests for haikus only, but please feel free to write a poem for my contest, please don't feel offended, it isn't my intention to do that

It does not matter how I place in it, but I am glad to be appart of your contest and share some of my poetry with you and everyone else who wishes to be appart of it. Thanks for posting another wonderful contest
