Contest Description

This poetry contest is open to any poet who needs a little help regards a lifetime membership, the winner will receive my lifetime membership and it will be transferred into your name when a winner is selected.

I have already cleared this with Admin.

I have only one rule and that is absolutely no AI generated poems, remember words are a poets tools, carve out  something to be proud of, you can never call yourself a poet if the words don't come directly from your own imagination, if I do find AI poetry it will be disqualified and I will soup mail you to tell you and I will reopen the contest to give a genuine poet a chance of a Lifetime membership.

Since I have a love of the Victorian Era and live in a Victorian house I would like a poem describing A Victorian Christmas, and with your permission I will have it framed and placed on a wall in my home with your name printed clearly on it.

Minium of 20 Lines, it can be dark, romantic you choose.

The contest is open to anyone who doesn't have a Lifetime Membership.
