Poems...

Okay, sorry about the prize points. There aren't much, but it's all I have.

This contest is going to be different then all my other. This one, I want poetry.
I am not a big poetry reader, but when I read it, I generally like it. Here are what I want them to be about

1.)an element. Tell me what you like about the wind, water, earth/rock or fire. Or all 3, if you want.
 

2.)Make up your own nursery rime. (that is not the spelling, I know. BONUS POINTS TO SOMEONE WHO KNOWS HOW TO SPELL IT!)

3.)Tell about a life expirience. a real one. Dosen't have to be personal.

4.) (hee, hee) a poem about Shikamaru, or Shino

Thats it! ^.^  Not too hard. Here are the few rules.

1.)No erotica. Im sorry, I can't read erotica. You put it on, you get deleted, and I'd rather not put poor Barbara through all that trouble.

2.)nO STiCkYcaPs

3.)I do not care about grammer

4.)The longer, the better. You don't get ong poems often

5.) Don't make it make me so depressed that I want to fall over and die, please. I like life. Don't ruin it for me.

Thats all. I hope you like this contest!!!! Have a ton of fun!!!!!

    I have a poem that has the wind as a sort of character, would that fit your contest?
