This year, I joined again the international poetry competition. I submitted my entry 4 days ago. The deadline for submission is August 24. I hope to win, though impossible he he. The other year, I ranked third place and received $ 75. The prize for first place is $2000. The winner last year was from Florida. Her poem was so simple. The title of my entry poem is " Silent Cries of the Forgotten Wild ." “Silent Cries of the Forgotten Wild “is my tribute to Mother Nature‘s quiet suffering-those unseen wounds and whispered pleas that often go unnoticed. Through this poem, I hope to give voice to the wild places and creatures neglected by our busy world, reminding us all that healing starts with listening. May these words inspire care, respect, and action before the silence becomes forever.”

@cacay1 I looked at what we are supposed to do and that is to read other people's poetry and rate them It is pretty boring I have stopped going there I would have preferred if there was a committe that took that decision.

@allknowing yeah that's true boring as if using the people's poems for their own advantage and interest. I only rate sometimes just to have access to the contest. I been away there almost 8 months and came back to submit my entry.
