Contest Description

PLEASE READ THE CONTEST REQUIREMENTS

Multiple placements.

Write a NEW poem of Sixteen Beautiful Lines, for this contest only, any form (be true to the form selected as described on PS), any theme.  Make it beautiful, dark, sad, deep, meaningful or just fun !

TITLE IS FOUR WORDS EXACTLY (D0 NOT USE CONTEST TITLE)

If you choose rhyming form (which I love) it must have a distinct pattern, NOT a few lines that rhyme, please ... don't do this because I will not bother to unravel your puzzle of a rhyme line here and there ! 

The NO'S  -

NO double spacing, NO all bolded poems, NO AI poems, NO plagerism, NO sloppy poems, NO poems with empty white space at top or bottom. NO old poems accepted.

ALSO-

Check your spelling, grammar, Grammar Checker on PS is very effective for this. Check rhyming if used which can be true and/or near rhymes but your poem must clearly rhyme with an easy to follow pattern. Check your syllables if used in a chosen form, it can be PS Syllable Counter or HowManySyllables, and the PRESENTATION on the page is very important to me !

Optional, you can add a quote at the top of your poem that relates to poem, if yours put by poet, if not mention writers name

Optional, you can add images, video, audio. Should relate to poem. 

POETRY SOUP RULE FOR CONTESTS -

Add nothing to the bottom of your poem, no contest info, dates, nothing.  (Optional put in Poet's Notes or at top of your poem.)   NO to putting names on poems or in titles, or any identifying mark, no copyright symbols or info(after contest judged of course go ahead. I Do)  

Get creative and write me a poem !
