Round one of a series of contests I'm plotting 
This is just the qualifier round, so it's open to everyone. Just give me the poem that you feel is your best piece, pre-write or new. Seven people will be invited to the next round of the contest, and more point will be added for each round until the end which will be a veritable treasure.
So give me your best!
~Rules~
1. No cursing or innuendo- kids are on here too
2. No erotica please. Sensuality is fine, but nothing hardcore.
3. If you must utilize dirty-pretty, chatspeak, or sticky caps, use them in moderation.
4. Any form you want to use is absolutely fine.
5. Have fun with it! This is your time to shine and show me what you've got.
Go for it people
Impress me!
<333, Kelly
