Contest Description

What to Submit?

This is a form that I invented- MeThinks (lol). Anyway, for this form of poetry you are to write a (Two- syllable, seven line, four stanza poem). In addition, the last words of the first two stanzas have to rhyme, and the last words of the last two stansa have to rhyme (AA,BB) You may use any title you desire but please put a (TSF) after the title, so that I don't accidentally read it. Example- Momma's Ditty-TSF You can remove the (TSF) after my contest is finalized. I will be using howmanysyllables.com to check the syllable count. 

*There's an example on my page titled- (Momma's Ditty) if you care to take a peek. 

*Have fun- there will be many placements, but only a few top winners's.

Good Luck!
