Kaleidoscopic contest poem
Kaleidoscopic Myths
That sky is the limit.
Yet star-bursting stories
Will shower galaxies
With deepest mysteries
And dark oceanic
Creatures and histories.

A Rolling Stone contest poem
A Rolling Stone
She’s weird as a broom stick, that witchy woman
That crazy, shonky, HONKY TONK WOMAN
On Monday she’s ANGIE, RUBY TUESDAY
Wednesday and Fridays it’s Glorious Rose.
What’s in a name? She sweetly asks me
I smell as good - why not change yours?
Ye Gods, What TUMBLING DICE did you roll?
What Shonky Tonk woman sent you me?
Its

Will your poem be monotone, dreary, merry

But every single entree is from a winner to me
So get your wonderful writing chops in gear

Hopes Soar
Composed a poem for CONTEST, hoping to be the BEST,
waited anxiously for results days and nights,
no response RECEIVED, disheartened I felt...
with passion I WEAVED, a tapestry with words
depicting symphony of sunrise - chimes
from a temple SOAR in melodious GALORE!

Last Organ Grinder
In a quiet street, his music would play,
The last organ grinder, day after day.
Under the moon's soft and silvery gleam,
He lived his life like a fading dream.
No crowd gathered 'round, no applause or cheer,
Just the sound of his organ, crystal clear.
With weathered hands and a knowing gaze,

If This Was My Last Contest Poem
If this was my last contest poem, I’ve
no idea what I’d write about.
My mind is vacant. Memories
are fading in a world which
wants to shut old ways out.
Perhaps tomorrow
I’ll die! Then my
last poem
this would
be!

The Toymaker
The Toymakers Toy
I thought once Pinocchios strings had been cut,
his wooden body turned to flesh
and he became ‘real’
Yet, I have been cut loose from my strings,
only to be left feeling numb,
and raw?
I feel as though I have landed,
like a twig that’s been thrown by a child.
And am now, Just

Contest Poem: 1984 Or 2017
1984 or 2017 (For Contest)
I ran as far away as I could
It predicted we'd fail, that all would ...
We humans revolt against "ought" and "should."
Orwell knew better - O well, you say!
In 1948, as one War seemed to give way
To a quieter, colder one, he penned away
We are all equal, but some are more equal
Between

Informal Contest Poem: Crack the Code To Win
Within this rhyme there hides a key I have encrypted,
Find it if you can crack the code that must be first decrypted,
Look upon a poem called "Caesar's Cipher", which I wrote,
And within it you'll find a key to unlock the following nonsensical notes:

A Tongue In Cheek Contest Poem
I entered a contest the other day
Waited patiently for it to be judged
Oh drat - I’ve got yet another N/A
The ‘glowing comments’ I received were fudged!
So I thought I’d change my poetry style
To see if a new strategy would work...
ANOTHER N/A's added to my pile
Now I feel a complete and utter jerk!
Guess now I’ve got

Jesus Contest Poem
Jesus the lover, the helper, the saviour,
Gave his life so we'd be forgiven.
He died for us so to repay him,
In harmony and peace we should live in.
He loves us no matter what,
And so we should do the same.
Towards him and all our brothers,
if we did, there would be no maim.
He made
