Contest Description
What to Submit?
1 original, poem on the theme of "pattern/s"
Any form is acceptable.
This is a very relaxed contest. I do ask for no poems over 20 lines. You can go in any way with the theme of Pattern/s. You can go with sewing pattern/s, carpentary pattern/s, geometric pattern/s, light giving pattern/s, etc. Please use pattern or patterns in your title so maybe I will not read it by accident.
Repeat:
Poems of 20 lines or less. It can be a Haiku or a sonnet or a rhyme with 5 stanzas of 4 lines each. I like short poems.
Pattern or Patterns in the title in some way
You can go any way with the theme of pattern/s
Remember and respect the sites rules
I thought of this because when we were first married, we had very little money and I made a lot of my two daughter's clothes and I have made something for my son but mostly for the girls. When my first grandson was little I made a few things for him as well.
