Rated: E · Message Forum · Contest · #2300286

Submit both new and old pieces of your awarded or non-awarded poetry.

Come On In! This is a Monthly Contest that accepts New or Old Items, Awarded or Not!

Each month you may submit ONE entry of your choice. There is no prompt. Entries can be any style of poem.

Please keep poems limited to 60 lines. Post line count at the bottom of your piece. If a particular form is used, please post the form used.

1st Place will only be given out if there are at least THREE entries. If there isn't, the entries will roll over to the following month. No need to repost. I'll make a post in the forum if this happens.

There needs to be at least FIVE entries for 1st and 2nd place to be awarded. EIGHT entries for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place to be awarded. If there are more than EIGHT entries, then Honorable Mention{s) may be given out upon Judge's discretion.

Post your entry into the forum, using the {bitem:number of piece}, {ritem:number of piece} or {entry:number of entry} in the forum below. If you need help, please contact me.

Contest begins on the 1st of the Month and Ends at 11:59 p.m. WDC time, on the last day of the month. Any entries entered after will be added to the following month.

Here's the Fun Part!
