Contest Description
What to Submit?
1 original, poem on the theme of your spirit guide or an animal or bird you feel connected to! You may have to do some research on the subject. For example. The Wolf offers some of the most striking animal meanings in the realm of spirit animals. The power of the wolf brings forth instinct, intelligence, appetite for freedom, and awareness of the importance of social connections. This animal can also symbolize fear of being threatened and lack of trust. When the wolf shows up in your life, pay attention to what your intuition is telling you.
I will be looking for distinct qualities of your totem creature chosen. You may like to choose more than one, just make sure they are compatible. The Raven hunts with the Wolf. I am looking for a Native American feel in your poem. Any questions feel free to mail me. And please no more than 40 lines.
Any form is acceptable.
