Contest Description
What to Submit?
1 original FREE VERSE poem on the theme of a mythical creature. Aim to make your chosen creature believable rather than silly. The NEW poem's title must name the mythical creature you write about, and the poem itself must be more than sixteen lines. Date the poem underneath, please.
My example is a narrative in Free Verse called "Journey is Beset by a Freybug", (3/28/2017), based on a mythical dog from Norfolk, a creature known for frightening people on country roads.
