Terza Rima is a type of poetry consisting of 10 or 11 syllable lines arranged in three-line.
Example:
Ode to the West Wind by Percy Bysshe Shelley
O wild West Wind, thou breath of Autumn's being, Thou, from whose unseen presence the leaves dead Are driven, like ghosts from an enchanter fleeing
So here are the rules:
~Terza Rima's must be completely Original which means no Plagiarizing. ~There can only be 1 submission per user ~The same user is not able to win twice in a row ~Even if the same user who won can't win.. doesn't mean they can't enter ~Must be submitted before the actual deadline for the contest ~It has to fit the theme
This will always last 1 week.
The deadline is February 27th and most Contests will start on the weekend.
This weeks Theme is The Desert and I am still in the process of asking for a merit to the winners.
4th-Bronze TeeHeegirl123! Rich man, bears gold jeweled rings, but still gets the blues Poor man, begging for coins, got nothing to lose Still, they wish they could be in each other's shoes
I liked how you said they want to be in each other shoes because they have a sad life.
3rd-Silver Moabarmorgamer!
The prodigal rich, squander their cash away The poor hold steady, to survive day by day In future, one will be the other, someday...
I liked how this was like a movie I saw but I forgot the name.
2nd-Gold Kyouzou!
Rolling in copious amounts of wealth Controlling the lives of those with less power Making those less fortunate tighten their belts
I really liked how the rich guy is really greedy and cares for himself only.
1st-Platinum JDOGPARTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A rich family dies, a rich kid survives A poor family survives, a poor kid dies The kids must survive, to help others lives
I really liked how this goes back and forth even though it's kind of predictible.
