Found Poem
Poetry Contest
The topic for this poetry contest is: FOUND WORDS
Just as an artist creates Found Art using things found and assembles it into artwork, create a short poem based on three to five "found" words that you come across in your reading during the day and assemble them into a one stanza poem. (It can be a quatrain, tercet or a 5-7-5 or 3-5-3.) Please list the "found words" in the Author's Notes.
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 24.00 member dollars. There are 12 spots still open. If all open spots are used the prize pool will be 72.00 member dollars. In this contest at least 2 submissions must be made for the vote to begin.
Deadline: Contest is closed. Deadline was Monday, May 8, 2017.
