Six is the most lines you are allowed. Have fun with this! As you know
poems cannot be compared to each other, it is like comparing butter to a shoebox. What appeals to me on one day might not appeal to me at all on the next day. This is why we need more poets to hold contests. And please put a 6 at the back of your title, so I do not read it ahead of time. Thanks!
