Contest Description
IWhat to Submit?
1 Pleiades poem starting with the letter I
1 Word Title starting with an I. 7 lines of 6 syllables each, that describe or show an example of the title. Each line must start with the letter I.
NO PERSONAL NAMES FOR TITLE - however this time I will allow a country, city or state to be used as long as it is one word and not hyphenated. NO hypenated words for titles.
Use howmanysyllables.com to check your syllable counts. I almost eliminated a couple of poems because I thought the count was off but then used this site to check syllables and to my surprise (and delight) I was wrong. So check your syllables.
No profanity or vulgar content.
I'm looking for smooth flowing lines to describe or show an example of the title.
Prizes:
1st - ? Glory!

On your mark, get set, GO! Give me an I!
