April Octo-Poem
Poetry Contest
Soooo, April is almost upon us... but do you REALLY know what that means? Well, it COULD mean a whole host of things... but you must CHOOSE ONE. That's right! The link below will bring you to the humongous list of things for which April has been designated the OFFICIAL MONTH for.
https://nationaldaycalendar.com/april-monthly-observations/
Your poetry assignment, should you choose to accept it, is to pick ONE** of those items on that list and write an EIGHT LINE RHYMED POEM about it. There is no specified rhyme scheme, so it's totally your call how the rhyming will work for your OFFICIAL MONTH** choice. However, when it's all said and done, it must be EXACTLY EIGHT (Octo) lines and it must RHYME. **Remember to include your OFFICIAL MONTH choice in your author notes!!
Please keep it CLEAN (I've seen some of those choices on there) and kick it up a notch with your presentation: make us WANT to celebrate April for your choice because WE ALL NEED SOME celebration!! Oh, and, of course, the more celebratory, the more we?ll want to vote for your Octo-Poem!!
Good luck and run over there and choose . . . we're all waiting!! ;-) ;-)
The contest winner will win half of the prize pool which is based on the number of entries. The second and third place winners will each share the remaining prize pool. The prize pool is currently 15.00 member dollars. There are 15 spots still open. If all open spots are used the prize pool will be 90.00 member dollars. In this contest at least 2 submissions must be made for the vote to begin.
Deadline: Contest is closed. Deadline was Thursday, April 2, 2020.
