Contest Description
What to Submit?
1 original, poem on the theme of ............. Easter 2018
The poem can be about travel to see family at Easter, the religious side of Easter, chocolates and Easter bunnies, etc... Please give me a variety that represents our wonderful and varied society.
I am looking for a contemporary feel, even if the subject matter is traditional, so my challenge to you is to try to embed something that ties the poem to this year. (eg. A reference to current events, your grandchildren, the date, how many Easters you have celebrated, or world news.)
(I checked judged competitions to see that there had not been dozens of other Easter competitions already.)
Any form is acceptable.
