Ode Challenge Poetry Contest #1
ode ( ōd/) - noun
a lyric poem in the form of an address to a particular subject,
often elevated in style or manner and written in varied or irregular meter.
Inspired wholly by @robyneggs #poetrydice challenge I am
beginning this new weekly challenge dedicated to the ode.
The rules here are simple:
1 - I will choose the subject matter.
2 - You will write a tribute piece to that subject.
3- The subject MUST be the focus of your poem.
4 - Use #odechallenge as your first tag so that it
is submitted for consideration.
5 - Post a link to your poem in the comments of
this post.
Poems must be submitted by Friday at midnight (EST) for the week of the challenge.
Winners will be chosen and announced on Saturday (EST) of that week
Poems will be judged for their originality, creativity, and focus of the subject.
You ARE NOT being judged on how many comments you get so if you see a poem
by another artist that you enjoy let them know. It makes a person feel good when
others notice and compliment their work. I know I do.
You may enter as often as you like so have fun with this and be creative!
Prizes to be awarded:
2 SBD to first place
1 SBD to each of two runner ups
Prizes will become larger as the contest grows so RESTEEM
this post to help generate a following.

ODE TO EPIC POETRY CONTESTS (I'm in) :-)
Thank you and thank you. Once for noticing and once for being awesome yourself. I'm glad you approve.
Yes :-0
Please do not use the "poetrydice" tag in the future, however, except for official entries to the PDC3K. Use the "onehumanbasket" tag instead :-) hope its not too confusing :-)
Mine is not to a "Lawnchair" but a chair that is broken
