With special thanks to the judges ~Godzilla725 and !GwenavhyeurAnastasia, and everyone who helped out in the background. ^namenotrequired,`cality and ~AshenSoul. Thank you for your time support and energy in creating this without you this would be nothing.
I read through the entries and picked the same 1st place winner as her. As well as an honourable mention to boot which I never gave any prizes to in previous blogs.
So without further ado here goes it.
First place goes to ~genoboost with the entry 'View from a New World'
"This piece has a nice rythym to it and it gives you the feel that the whole poem rhymes because lines 1 & 3 ryhme and so do 14 & 16 which gives it a nice intro outro feel. Along with the use of vivid verbs and adjectives which really make you think of your surroundings while reading it. Such as 'perilous', 'intricate' and 'ignites'. Also it has a smooth opening with the constant alliteration of 's'." ~~Godzilla725
"I enjoyed the images in this piece, especially of "Alien patterns above perilous hills" ~!GwenavhyeurAnastasia
And now for the Honourable Mention, Gwen had picked a second place prize but instead I chose her Honourable Mention as mine as well I thought it had a better message.
Honourable Mention goes to *rainonwednesday with the entry 'The Finest Man'
"I love the change in this from old to new. It perfectly captures the view of my contest new beginnings. It shows the perfect father figure which everybody wishes they had and wanted. I find the perfect father figure a little unrealistic, I am preferencial myself of realism but still the change of the man in her life is clearly shown. And that she fully trusts that man to take care of her. Though the girl in the poem seems to ignore mans flwas and only look on the bright side of things a true optimist one would say." ~ ~Godzilla725
"This piece describes how our views on people can change in a moment. It clearly helped me see the scene of a wedding, even though I've never been to one." ~!GwenavhyeurAnastasia
"This is really sweet, it makes a change from all the angst filled poems on here. I like how the 'finest man' theme is presented and how it shows how love and attitudes change as one grows up." ~ ~Avenvia
