Best Judges Poems

Not for the contest

No more do I despair 
writing for contests with an off the wall theme
Those that want me to create a nightmare
from what was once a beautiful dream.

No more do I care
about Marvel characters who fight and kill
I'd rather spend my time writing...

I write because I love to write,  
writing for a contest makes me think.  
My imagination and creativity come alive,  
as the words dance across the page.  
Today I asked my words,  
what do they think about contests.  
They...

 DEDICATED TO ANDREA DIETRICH AND PAUL CALLUS WHO SEEM TO THINK BY CORRECTING PUPILS PAPERS IS THE SAME AS JUDGING PS CONTESTS.


They teach
They preach
They bloody screech.

Teachers coach
The weak they approach
To their weakness they encroach.

They advise
For some they compromise
Favourites are prioritize.

They manipulate
Teachers to their innocents...

Hello, my most esteemed poets,

I am trying an experiment that I believe has not been done here on the PS site. I have posted a new poetry contest called "The Prismatic Self: A Gauntlet of Mirrors within the Arena.".

The JUDGES have now been selected:

Two Judges sitting,
side by side,
one condemns,
the other saves lives.

To place someone,
in a cell so cold,
is the job of one,
since time of old.

The other one saves,
He knows their heart,
and forgives their sins,
cleaning every part.

Two Judges sitting,
side by side,
one is truth,
the other one day,
will stand trial....

So, I’m the last survivor of a breed that ruled the world!
Brrr! It’s getting mighty cold.
I suppose we can’t complain though. Our innings was quite long.
Brrrr! It’s getting mighty cold.
When I was just a nipper not long hatched from the egg,
Brrrrr! It’s getting mighty cold,
My...

THE FORGOTTEN JUDGES

I had  forgotten them because  it was long ago
But nothing is forgotten  
It is all written in the book
The great ledger showing credits and debits
Used to think of Judgement as being 
A guy in a white beard  totting up...

Those overly particular judges
Give me a halt when I see their contests
Asking to write what I feel
In hard form plus a kyrielle
I better go and take my long bed rests.

At first, I did once, spending my whole night
Started from the topic I needed to write
Half...

I wonder:
If we believe that Jesus Christ is the only BEGOTTEN Son of God,
Do we get a free ride into heaven?
Yes and No!

Yes, because Jesus overcame the grave and was resurrected, 
We all will likewise be resurrected.
We have been saved from eternal demise…because of Jesus.
…And...
