Contest Description

What to Submit?

Dear soupers ~ I so appreciate your love and enchanting support in my first contest, it was truly a pleasure reading such beautiful entries from you ... sincerely grateful!
 

Firstly, choose ANY ONE of these and keep that as the title of your poem,

PROMPTS ~ 

Funeral of Fireflies 

or 

Saudade of Stars 

 

for this contest, I need you to weave something NEW and ORIGINAL, from your soul ~
using the Fibonacci poetry format which follows the Fibonacci sequence for the syllables per line. As it goes 1 syllable for line one, then 0+1 =1 syllable for line two, 1+1=2 syllables for line three, 1+2=3 syllables for line four, similarly 5 syllables for line five, 8 syllables for line six and so on... till 55 syllables in the tenth line ... I want the Fibonacci to be within 10 lines! 

Create something artistic, emotive and meaningful... 

enjoy scribbling with serenity ~ 

can't wait to read! 
 

Note - 

absolutely NO AI POETRY, NO PLAGIARISM

please be respectful, no use of profanity, political references.
