Rewriting Poems

i long to hold you like a poet holds their pen caress you gently beneath the linger of thoughts as they fall from the depths of mind play with you like a poet plays with words in the depths of poetry lay you down on sheets of white in the thrusts of metaphor like a poem then rewrite you again through breathless sighs written 9/25/2019 Best free verse of 2019 Sponsored by John Hamilton

Just a thought for next time, maybe adjust the line count to make it work for the contest? Then after you win....adjust the line count back to how you like it!!

me too ...i had a couple others in mind but they were over the line count... my short little lines make it hard to stay under 30 but wouldn't equal 10 lines of most poet's writes if i adjusted them...i like my little lines though...it's me...

Yeah too bad I think your cobblestones write was your best last year, too bad it already got a top win in one of my contests!
