What to Submit? (please read complete description)
New poem on only ONE of these words ..... gnarled or graceful or green
** PLEASE use only one of the words in your poem, not all three **
Any form is acceptable. Why not try one of the many forms found in Types of Forms on PoetrySoup.
I accept true and near rhyming. Not fond of double spacing.
Not fond of audio poems read in a robtic voice with no emotion or pauses at top speed, these will fail on presentation and will be disqualified. Use your own voice and I will be impressed or a voice with emotion.
The word chosen is your title only. Do not change the word or add to it in any way.
You may add a quote at the top, if yours put by poet, if not yours name writer. I like quotes.
Of course, images and music videos are welcome. I like theses too.
Do not put anything on the bottom of your poem, only want to see the poem. Poems with dates, contest details, notes will be disqualified as this is against PS rules.
Check your PRESENTATION, spelling, grammar, rhyming if used, syllables if used. I like punctuation but if you cannot do it well, leave it out.
Multiple placements.
A Note to Poetry Contestants
Poetry Soup have a new rule- sponsors are not allowed to ask for dates, contest details or sponsors name on the bottom of poems. You can put in Poet's Notes. Also no dates or names on poems. Use Poet's Notes for any notes.
