    I listen to leaves and rain.
    Is it melody?
    Or silence?

    I admire that you wrote two, but I have to ask which one of the two do you want to count for the contest? I do not think two entries is fair towards the rest.

    Whoops, I'd forgotten.

    I am glad that there were a couple more entries, exactly what I was aiming for!

    Pendragon, unfortunately your poem did not conform to the topic of sound. It was quite a good piece, but I cannot grade it for the contest.

    YesNo, your work was pretty much what I expected beforehand. It's catchy and well composed. Good job!

    Cacian, a fast and catchy piece. It sounds nice although the meaning is unclear. That also adds to the mystery.

    Barbara, good piece; sounds quite eerie.

    Dark Muse, I like how you spoke to somebody else in your poem. The only one of the contestants who did it this way. Nicely done.

    Miyako, I find the question that you ask.. striking. A bit hard to try to answer, as well.


    Well wow, I find it hard to declare a winner from these.. They are all unique in their own way. I'm going to give this one to YesNo, because I like the wording and the feel to it. I would call Miyako a close second because your question was the most striking.

    Well done everyone!

    Thank you, EvoWarrior5! And thanks, cacian!

    The next form I've never tried. It is called a Cinqku, but there was a whole thread on it that Paulclem started so there are plenty of examples here: http://www.online-literature.com/for...e-for-December

    Deadline: February 14th, Valentine's Day

    i missed that requirement, Evo. I need to learn to finish reading instructions! Thanks anyway.
    Some of us laugh
    Some of us cry
    Some of us smoke
    Some of us lie
    But it's all just the way
    that we cope with our lives...

    It looks like I will have to extend this a couple weeks. I'm willing to change the form. Any suggestions?

    New deadline is the end of February.
