The contests I would most like to see
would be ones judged on ability.
No finalists lists of only friends.
One where the means justifies the ends.
Judges who judge with integrity
Contests judged fairly not just taste
A contest where all the hard work
doesn't turn out to be just a waste.
Don't applaud comments and message
to tell the host who you are.
For, in my contests kissing up
really won't get you very far.

hehe.. I hate kissing up! But I guess we all like what we like too.. and look for that in our contests.. which is probably not right, not the best poetic piece may win, but think that's human nature to like what you like.
I like a variety tho

All fair here..that is how it should be so ...
Lovely poem in itself, good rhythm
All the very best in the contest!

You should join the Winkling Group One. Just like the hokey-pokey, that's what it's all about.
