Chatterbox: Pudding's Place

Poetry Contest

Poetry Contest

Well, we haven't had one of these in a while, have we? Time for a new one, I say! Welcome, resident poets!

The rules are pretty simple. I am the first judge. I will give you a theme, and you must write a poem relating to the theme. Be creative with your interpretations! I will then judge the entries by a set date, and the winner will then be the next judge, and set the next theme. And so on, and so forth. 

The first theme will be... *dramatic drumroll*

Stars! Whether you chose to write about the kind of stars you wish on, or the kind that take the stage, I will be eagerly awaiting your sparkly, shiny, beautiful poems. Have them in by... Saturday, March 18. Two weeks. Sound fair? 

I hope to see your poems soon!

Hey, that's really good, Leeli. I'm glad you decided to post it.

(FYI, I agree!)

Not to nag, but you still haven't judged. I understand if you're busy, but we would really like to see the results! :)

Y'all, he's likely busy (college is starting pretty soon in most places), and on top of that he doesn't spend much time online. Please, be patient.

Ruby is a guy?

Yes, the first Ruby on Chatterbox. There may have been a femaie more recently.

He disappeared. I haven't seen him anytime in the past, like, week. Is that normal for him?

I've known him to leave the Internet for upwards of two weeks sometimes. I'm sure he'll be back soon.

Yeah, I get that. Do you know Ruby personally? Or just on CB?

I don't just talk to him on the CB, so I guess I know him personally.

Sorry, Ruby, or anyone, if I'm seeming super impatient, but it's been over 10 days since the set judging date. Maybe we could appoint the second place winner from last round to judge, or we could ask the Admin to judge. I don't know. Just a suggestion.

I agree. It's been too long.
