Milly.

My name is Milly, sounds rather silly
Im smiley, strong, but not very frilly
Like a bird my mind, flys over the sky
little by little, my life says goodbye
Yesterdays all seem, to fade into time
holding on to them, is the hardest climb
Autumn is gone, and now snow slowly falls
yet I can sit still, and make my snow balls
Wish I could go back, be young once again
all things now draw, to their final refrain
Reflect on all the good things from my past
Dont let misfortune, define me at last

-------------------------------

Kitty Cat Lady.

Kindly
Instruct me of just how
To write
This damn challenge
You set! I just
Can't seem to get the hang of
Acrostic prose and
The bloody thing has
Led me close to insanity
All week!
Driven me close to madness
You know!!!!

Larry Chamberlin

Later or sooner the truth can present itself
about life and personal choices we have made;
remembering the reasons leads to clarity,
remembering the results oft leads to wisdom,
yet greater understanding requires something more.

Challenge yourself to always continue growing:
having the effrontery to believe in hope,
agonizing to know meaning of “the other,”
making crucial stabs at the crucible of truth;
because without any of these profundities -
efforts to discover our meaning and purpose -
reality has as much relevance as food:
letting us merely carry on daily, scrounging
in this collective midden heap of our knowledge
nowhere close to attaining fulfillment of dreams.

Mel Liz

Miss Timid, she speaks in a barely audible voice
Everybody thinks she's always graced and poised
Look, here she comes, striding without a noise.

Leave her to the moonbeams, for her heart is melted by the moon
It's quite her age old hobby that in the bathroom she sings a tune
Zealously, she started to write this poem; too bad it's ended soon.

Bluejay.

B Baby, you need to hear me
L laughing in this garden
U underneath the sunlight
E emanating from your soul -

J just as you named me
A audacity has offered another
Y year of poetic nature with

B belief in miracles,
L love of growth,
U understanding
E even when I
J just cannot
A admit that I crave
Y yesterdays dressed in ink.

-------------------------

Brenda.

Brown hair, brown eyes, baby of her family.
Right handed? Nope, lefty all the way!
Extremely klutzy, known to trip over flat ground...
Never plan on doing the nude beach thing, no, not ever!
Didn't learn how to tell time until 4th grade, sigh...
Always try to be optimistic, there's enough negativity out there.

---------------------------------------

Aries Rising Craig.

Anger burned through me since childhood
Reminiscing! I still feel a flame. gggrrrr
Ill equipped to deal with my emotions
Early years, unfiltered thoughts and acts
Something had to change, "it did"

Rising now, stronger, faster, smarter
Intellect nurtured and grown by others
Seeking simplicity in the confusion
Immersed in my passion and nature
Nothing seems impossible, only difficult
Growing into!!!

_____________________________

Calmer now and more considerate to others
Relaxed and chilled for the most part
Alway thinking, always questioning. Why?
Impressed, with the achievements of others
Graciously bowing to those I consider better than myself.

Emma.

Envisions
Miraculous
Moments
Always

Yay! Love every single piece!

What's the deadline for votes to be in?

Just to say all,

That I will post the results as soon as I have received all votes in.

Just keep an eye on this thread message and I will edit/add as they come in, and once all eight names are posted here. I will reveal the winner and runner ups. I hope that seems fair to you all :)

Mel liz - votes are in
Kitty Cat lady - votes are in
Brenda - votes are in
Milly -votes are in
Blue Jay -votes are in
Craig AR-votes are in
Larry - votes are in

Are people that did not participate able to vote as well?

Also as I was trying to decide how I wanted to vote, I wrote comments for each piece, would you (collectively) like me to post them here on the thread or send them to you guys individually when the contest ends? It was incredibly difficult to decide on anything at all! I love this side of PnQ - all the creativity is so wonderful.

What I thought in answer to your question Blue Jay is it will be between you all to vote first, and post for site-wide if you chose to after the competition ends

Hope that's okay :)

Sent, sorry for the delay

Craig.

Well kinda sorry, ish, but not really,

Well ya made us all wait long enough lol

Such good poems
And blue Jay wrote two pieces.
Simply amazing. Michael

It's one piece. It was just a repeating acrostic. Craig also wrote two separate halves because he is Aries Rising :P
