o1) Everything Must Be In By October 20th. I believe a month is long enough. I will judge the poetry on October 22cd.

The Queen of Everything
by Kristi H.

The queen sits upon a throne,
Of magazines, knick-knacks, and gadgets,
Yet, with such things, so alone,
The monarch resides like a poppet.
Suitors for her are unknown,
For her favor is tricked like a locket.
One cannot imagine the splendor,
That incures such glamour as hers.

The throne room is filled with silks,
Gold, jewels, and things that decay,
Nobody there knows flowers wilt,
For each peasant cares just for a day.
The queen's words are like a sword's hilt,
Bared, but no one hears her say,
How much the queen wishes for them to,
Go back to their homes that are safe.

The queen has nobody to call,
A friend in all of the court.
Her "friends" are a gossiping hall,
And jesters are simply a sport.
Someday, the great queen will fall,
And all of the court will snort.
The queen's prized, possessive smile,
Will last for just a while.

HAHA.
:D You and her were close there. Seriously, I read both poems like four times. :|

C'mon people.
You know you want to. (:

Diamonds and pearls lace the golden walls,
Lollipop bedposts line a mattress of gum balls.
A dazzling crown sits on the top of her head,
Lined with a dozen diamonds colored ruby red.

On top of the castle, stands one little girl so proud;
Clearing a voice, words travel through her crowd.
Villagers -- made up of all colors, shapes and sizes;
Gather `round and listen as their queen rationalizes.

A smile is set between dimples on her face,
As a light shines down on her innocent grace.
Dancing in circles, her dress lightly twirled,
Arms up high in the air, swearing to change the world.

Lights out -- teddy bears freeze and sit still,
As rains drips upon her wooden window sill.
Lollipops and gum balls slowly fade away,
The walls turn blue, until another rainy day.

The Queen of everything, laying down to sleep,
Yawns as night consumes her, takes her deep.
The moon laughs through the curtains drawn,
And the world outside turns, life carries on.

If this was confusing, it`s explaining a child`s imagination about a 'perfect world' .

I'll give it a few more days, then I'll judge.

Anyone else?

This one will be judged as soon as I get the Utopia one judged.

So anyone can enter from now until then. (:
