WELCOME TO MY 20TH CONTEST AT POETRY SOUP!
Munich, Germany, is wild in the last two weeks of September when it holds its annual beer festival called the Oktoberfest. It draws many international visitors, particularly Italians.
I am writing this to gear you up for my WILD ACROSTIC contest.
**********
Here is what I am asking for -
Make
W E W I L L P A R T Y L I K E T H E R E S N O T O M O R R O W (notice no apostrophe in T H E R E S) your acrostic phrase.
1) When you reach the last "O" of the "T O M O R R O W" line, "and" should be the last word on that line.
2) When you reach the "W" of "T O M O R R O W", put this -
We'll party like there's no tomorrow!
OR
We will party like there's no tomorrow.
My example poem is "Party At Nora's Nosh", and it's dated 10/17/2016.
The title is your own choice.
