Poems For Sale- a Poet's Worth

Words are good as fairy tale!
They can never be for sale.
A depiction of real knowledge,
Key for a sweetest prestige

Steal it but you cannot!
Stains of plagiarism is so much of blot
Buy it for dollars with two eyes closed.
You’ll not go to have it for your pose.

Takes hours for an art to be finished,
Wisdom is truly undiminished.
Blood is refreshingly thirsted,
Hidden words aren't really filthy worsted
  
I say it’s not for sale!
This is not a story of same told tale.
You can force me but still you can’t!
These are poems that amazingly chant.

Lei,, Congratulations on your nice win. Thank you for all the time you took supporting and entering my contest this past year 2015:-) I'm taking, this time, to explain how I really enjoyed every entry. I truly wanted to place every poem, but two with higher placements. However, it is a contest and with all the bickering going on about the way we judge our contest. I did not place everyone the way I wanted to in this contest. I do APOLOGIZE. Please don't be upset if you are sharing a placement or did not make the top 10. I feel every poem, should have been placed higher. Stop by my latest Blog "Favorite Type of Poem" when you'd like or have time. Celebrate by sharing with us, Your Favorite type of poem. Have A Blessed Year. Love SKAT

In the past year since i joined I have seen blatant plagerism on the site Lei in fact recently I have written a poem about it but not posted it yet! Glad we are of the same opinion - it is a crime to steal the work of another and try and pass it off as your own:-( Hugs jan xx
