What is it?
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.
Have fun making Terza Rima's Lol.
By the way.. I'm looking for Judges. ;D

These people fill my life with endless joy
Colorful garments fall flat on their bodies
Hugging their curves like a mother hugs a boy
The windless, endless night brings me to my knees
Surrounding me in a blanket of silence
Forever I lie, crying, but no one sees
This Terza Rima tells a sort of story, so don't think it's inconsistent xD
Been a day and no poems.. That's strange ;o.
Anyways.. I'm trying really hard for the merit guys.. x]
Well, this isn't a very easy theme.
Colorful arrays complete our night sky
Drifting into the blanket of blue stars
Monochrome colors never felt so high
I tried. I guess that's what counts . . . .
Well, this isn't a very easy theme.
It isn't I would think it is xD..
It can be anything having to do with space.. even anything with having to study with space.. Such as a scientist using a telescope and so on..
Well.. I would think it would make people try harder.
Why the Astronomer Died a Poor, Lonely Virgin,
A day with you, my love, is swift to pass,
As Mercury's most ephemeral days.
Your sweet scent, my love, is just like the gas
Of Venus, which doth make this heart ablaze.
Your kiss is full of wat'ry life, like Earth,
Whose oceans rise and fall with tidal phase.
Your breasts, I liken, for what they are worth,
To Olympus Mons on Mars, how they tower so:
Who knows, when we send probes, what they'll unearth!
Your rounded eyes are beautiful to show
Like Jupiter's majestic Great Red Spot,
Or, in a fit of passion, I bestow
A ring fit for Saturn to scheme and plot.
Uranus...let's not go into there, please...
Your flaws, my love, are distant as the dot
That we call Neptune, which stays in the freeze
Where intruding Pluto won't bother us.
Such is the way my love has been appeased.
Sour I am judging this one right?Parasat you are great at these to bad you cant win this one.
Sour I am judging this one right?
Yes you are.
Parsat you are great at these to bad you cant win this one.
Indeed.. He is really good at this xD Love the Humor!
3 days left.. wow that was pretty quick..
Come on guys.. where are the usual people who bring in some poems for me ?? >:]
Parsat, shut up. You're way too good to be on this forum. Go teach a poetry class or something.
I am Mercury, the closest to the sun.
I'm the sun's favourite, because of my craters
I stand my ground proudly, I won't try to run.
I am Venus, the hottest planet of all.
I'll astound you with my amazing beauty.
Like a lady, I will stand straight and tall.
I'm Earth, you probably recognize me.
My water is the lifeline for all of you.
One of my creations is a simple tree.
Mars is my name, and I simply must request,
That you stop crashing your probes on my land!
Your hopes for discovery make me so stressed!
Jupiter, I'm the plumpest,(not fattest!), one.
The Great Red Spot is where I hold all my rage.
I'm always angry, the storm's never done.
Saturn, I am, I take pride in my rings
Over a thousand I have, never too much.
Who knows what they're made of, dust, dirt, other things?
Uranus, I'm always sleeping on my side.
Wake me up and be drowned in helium.
You better believe me, planets never lie.
Neptune, named after the god of the sea.
I am jealous of Saturn's many rings
I wish I had more but I'm grateful for three
I am Pluto, the tiny planet child,
Have you heard of Snow White and The Seven Dwarves?
Well, I'm the eighth one, that likes to run wild.
Parsat, shut up. You're way too good to be on this forum. Go teach a poetry class or something.
LOL, would you like to be my pupil then? I need a class first.
Well there is only 4 again so here it is:

-I didn't get this it doesn't seem like it is about astronomy.
