RE: Blank Verse contest

Hey Katie and Gloria ~ I would enter a contest of Blank Verse. I don't think I've ever written that type of poem before and realize it will be a challenge. Let me know!

It's just a sonnet that doesn't rhyme. If you can write a sonnet, you can write a bank verse.

RE: Blank Verse contest
Hello all,

I've just created a Blank Verse Contest (spoiler - I will NOT be entering the contest.)

2 stanzas, each of 10 lines (thus, 20 lines in total) / Iambic pentameter (or as close as you can manage...try!) / A total of 200 syllables expressed in two 'sets' of 100 / (poetry only, and if you needed that clarification then this is perhaps not a contest for you.)

Your subject is unpeopled and natural - the sea, the night sky, a season, a landscape etc. Be articulate, creative & rich in your imagery & word choice (but comprehensible). No religion or politics.

I'd really like to see some beautiful, thoughtful and creative work.

cheers

phill
