This Contest Was a big hit so I am repeating it.
Enter any rhyming pre-write that does not have a trophy (includes hms)
Not entered in any contests concurrently with this one.
Please, nothing bloody, gory or obscene.
sensual is fine, not to be confused with erotica.
if it does not meet the rule requirements I may comment but still DQ.
You may enter up to 3 pre-writes.
I move things ahead as I read so it means nothing until we get there.
I am a sucker for sonnets ...
Contest is Over

- Final notes: Lots of wonderful entries...filled with emotion, imagery and of course great rhyme and flow. There are trophies for gold, silver and bronze but they would all be gold if it were up to me If I had the points I would have given you all the same amount. Thank you for entering.
