Contest Description
What to Submit?
I consider myself a kind being, and I adore kind people. I think the world would be a much better place if everyone would every once in a while show some kindness :) Please submit a NEW poem on the theme of "Kindness" Your poem needs to be short and sweet, only 4 lines with a rhyme pattern ABBA. Also, each line must have 10 syllable. ( I don't know if there is a form for this style so please list it as a verse ) In addition, please put INK at the end of your title so that I don't accidentally read it. (example: Kind Ink-INK) Since this is a "Kind" poetry contest, I will show some extra kindness by awarding the winner a signed copy of my book. Good Luck...Everyone! Thanks for your kindness. All the best, dear friends. PS: If intersted I wrote a poem titled "Kind Ink" you can see it on my poetry list. NO names please.
