Rated: 13+ · Book · Contest Entry · #2208434
Most entries are going to be E rated but some may go beyond that.
You just want to read? These entries will be freshly written for a contest. Since I plan on joining many then I'm putting them all in a book. Sit back and enjoy it. I'll try to do a (poem) line count, (story) word count, prompt, and which contest I entered in. Though I won't be mentioning it in the piece, but "The Contest ChallengeOpen in new Window. will be a part of a contest I enter since it's about entering into a contest following its rules. Wish me luck!

It's Christmas in July
Peppermint is on the table
Chocolate is ready to serve
Cold on the inside, hot on the outside

It's Christmas in July
Eerie silence all around
Joy of presents to unwrap
Decorations hung and lit

It's Christmas in July
Snow is spread on the ground
Quickly melted by the heat
Barbecue weather on the grill

It's Christmas in July
Celebrated by certain cultures
Maybe snowing maybe sunny
Still a gift to share for all

Prompt: Christmas in July
Peppermint, chocolate, cold, eerie, joy
Form: Free verse
Line Count: 16
Word Count: 75
Contest: "Christmas in July Poetry ContestOpen in new Window.
