We extended the time for this contest and you now have three days to find a Freewrite Poem and participate. Please, help us find the talented Freewrite Poets out there so we can feature them.

Thank you so much @freewritehouse
If only we already knew our journey from start to finish, then choices and decisions would be made accordingly. But obviously that's not the way it works. @empress-eremmy, rhymes of her journey through present and future. Of showing up no matter what, and to put a brave face on. To keep fighting the fight, even though no one will ever know what it holds. Read it here:

I found this beauty of a poem by the poet @seifiro on the prompt dry lips. This poem was that feeling you get after a first kiss, and that time of the day when the sun falls on the horizon and sends those majestic colors throughout the sky, bot spectacular. Wondering when our lips will meet again to relive that glorious feeling of our tongues touching, could it be 24 hours like the next sunset, or would it be much longer. A very powerful read. 👏

Good afternoon, on this occasion I would like to recommend a poem written by @ jakim7 in which he again takes up his philosophical tendency through poetry, analyzing in a brief but complete way his vision about the need to cultivate values over an egocentric tendency, but also in that effort, he manages to complete it as an acrostic, which shows the degree of difficulty in which he was submerged when taking care of the rhyme on the one hand and on the other following the acrostic form.
For these reasons I request that you be considered for your support, then leave the link of your post: </ div>

Born out of the experience of living outside his homeland @charjaim presents a poem and acrostic in which he expresses the love she feels for his homeland, highlighting the values with which she identifies it, leaving open the possibility of returning to his beloved land, letting us see that the children of the country profess in the skin so much love as towards a beautiful mother rich in culture. Here I leave you the link to her post

I found two poems that I really enjoyed. The picture from @wandrnrose7's dolls creeped out @wonderwop and his poem about those dolls was so funny. He called them "creepy sisters" which was perfect, and his last line of the poem was a perfect and funny ending. https://steemit.com/freewrite/@wonderwop/two-creepy-dolls
@kimberlylane freaked me out...big time! I will never look at dolls the same ever again. Talk about scary! And her haiku approach for her thoughts was incredible and in my opinion, not an easy thing to do. https://steemit.com/eye4artpoetryweek/@kimberlylane/untitled-queen

Yay, you found two!!
Good evening dear family, I recommend reading this beautiful poem written by @saulos , the style of this poem is called imperfect hendecasyllable by its author, it is written under the style of an acrostic, the title I remember a beautiful tango called also FOR A FEW EYES BLACKS. the metrics of this poem and its musicality are of a poet hardened in the depths of loving and wanting, our friend presents us with the coming and going of love that goes away but does not want to go, for which I thank you to consider my recommendation, all receive a strong hug and blessings from on high ...
