Thanks everyone! I'll post a pic in a few minutes when I find a great one....
Thanks again!
Hey guys,
Ok, so I was really unsure of what picture I wanted to post. I at first was going to do a picture of something I loved like galloping horse or a road that looked like it had no end but I figured that would not stretch a poets mind- then I wanted to post an abstract picture- something that could have a million different views....after searching and searching plus a little arguing with myself I decided on this picture...it's defiantly not abstract but still can have many different views of it.I hope you enjoy and good luck, I can't wait to read your poems!

Terrrific picture choice AdoreroDio, and a hearty congrats on your first time winning in a poetry contest :D. I look forward to doing this image more justice on a rhythmic level than my last effort had to offer.
Good luck everyone else!
Amazing pic. AdoreroDio. Should be interesting to write on, though my first association was that Twilight Zone episode with the man who survives as the last person on earth, and he's in front of the ruins of the library with the books scattered everywhere on the steps, and his glasses...:bawling: well, I don't want to spoil it if you haven't seen the episode, but maybe you know the one I mean. Anyway, enough rambling, and off to think up a poem. :idea:
Well......guys about em judging the poetry......uhmmmmmm how can I say this.....
Well I am starting a fast before going to El Salvador this summer with the rest of my team and one of the things I'm fasting is the compy unless for school and this starts on Friday and lasts forty days......which means I won't be on here. I'm really sorry.
Pendragon could you judge for me? I think that you will judge most like I would. I really appreciate it. I really wish I could be on here because it is my first time winning...but God goes before everything in my life.
Sorry again! God Bless. I'll be on tomorrow for prolly the last time until August.
Great pic Adoredio, reflective. :) Hope to be able to write something on it, and look forward to seeing u among us again as soon as ur back, we'll all miss u. God bless u. Take care. :thumbs_up
Will do. Anything for such a worthy cause. As such, I will not submit a poem for this competition. Be praying for you AndyDio. God Bless.Quote:

Thank you very much Pen this means a lot. Good luck everyone in writing your poems! See you in August or whenever I get back on....
Good luck with your fasting and pilgrimage, AdoreroDio, and we'll look forward to seeing you again when you return.
I am going to set the date for last entry (provided I get a first one!) on the 7th of July. The results will post by the 9th. AndyDio has a great pic here, and I feel overwhelmed to be chosen as guest judge. So sent in the poems! That picture again is:

Without poems, there can be no contest. That would be a sad tribute to AndyDio while on his (oops!) mission of mercy... http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l1...ilies/ISNF.gif
It feels like I have missed so much in the poetry community here! I will try my best to come up with something for that amazing photo. Good luck to AndyDio on his journey!
Time Running Out
Where have all the poets gone?
Time is swiftly passing...
Where have all the poets gone?
Time will not run slow...
Where have all the poets gone,
I need some verses for this contest
Come and write a line of two
About the books stacked up high won't you?
When will people ever learn
Books are to read and not to burn?
Will they ever learn...
