Psimon Posted May 8, 2003 Report Posted May 8, 2003 I need your help.... I have decided to bite the bullet and enter some of my works in The New Zealand Poetry Society 2003 International Poetry Competition. Only problem is... I don't know which ones to submit Can anyone please help by declaring a short-list of five (5) of the works I've posted here that they believe have better than a snowball's chance in hell of getting at least a second glance by the Judge (Keri Hulme, Winner of the Booker Prize, 1983 for "The Bone People") ????? Help me.... please, please, pretty please....
Peredhil Posted May 8, 2003 Report Posted May 8, 2003 Oh my! Congratulations on taking such a big step; in my mind that makes you a winner already. I'll try to make the time this weekend to review your poetry and post something more substantial.
Cheyenne Posted May 8, 2003 Report Posted May 8, 2003 (edited) I am very pleased that you have decided to take this step. I think you will be amazed at the reception your writtings have. I really enjoy them I know that....ok though...here are my faves.... 1. Goodbye to the days 2. Gone 3. Just another day 4. Tornado 5. I will find you 6. My Prison (I couldn't leave this one out) Sorry that I have too many there but you have such great work it is hard to narrow it down to just 5. Good luck, hope to see you in a book soon!

Psimon Posted May 22, 2003 Author Report Posted May 22, 2003 Well... For better or worse I've posted my verse. My entry is in let the waiting begin! But I must find a way to adequately say thank you to all who responded to my plea most despondent. Cheyenne - your response was so quick! It gave the others some stick. Wyvern - O' He Who is Almost a Dragon, your response was next in the wagon. Gwaihir - Elder of All things Wiggly, your edited list had me all giggly. Peredhil - Great Polite Ancient with my work you're most patient. Yes, I know these rhymes are sickly but hey! This was written quickly OK? To those who didn't respond.... Your names have been passed to the appropriate authorities... Expect a visit anytime soon... *KNOCK KNOCK* See... What did I tell you? J/k.. LOL You guys all rock so no probs
Lady Celes Crusader Posted May 22, 2003 Report Posted May 22, 2003 Well, pick the one you're most pride of. Good luck
