Don't need no stinking contests you say, sure I know my poems are good; but I do not want my words to decay, and without a contest they would. Muse gone to sleep, with no words that weep; still I could, yes, could, and have less stress; to write a poem for a theme. Oh, but writing for contests is a dream ! ______________________________ July 19, 2018 Poetry/Rhyme/Those Stinking Contests Copyright Protected, ID 18-1044-365-01 All Rights Reserved.

Well-done, Constance! Since I joined this site, my productivity as a poet has increased dramatically--because of those "stinkin' contests"! LOL Janice

Janice, thanks for the visit. Yes, me too. Contests have taught me so much in my poetic journey from learning new forms to getting in touch with my muse ...
