Hi Stan
don't know how poems from varied themes can be judged in a contest...hard work for the judge...perhaps a competitive edge would be last is my personal opinion...not aware of a contest which doesn't provide a level field for all contestants...let's see how it pans out... I guess this contest would end on 31st July 2018
best of luck to all who participate..

This contest will be judged entirely on how much the judge likes the poem. Be assured this month's judge will give equal credence to all forms and subjects so go ahead and let it rip

As usual, just one per writer. Makes it easier on the judge............stan

I tend to agree with raj our poetic expert
Neo's love many restrictions
So as Dreg has won twice
the third one he will also
being a professional
most here like me
are novice
so lay down some /another restriction
a poet will get only three firsts
later like you do
enter with a note
you won't be a winner
as you and Mark often quote
fodder for thought
of masters here
i hope me they also will hear

Hi loved
This contest is simple. Winner will be based upon which poem the judge likes best and the judge will give all forms and subjects equal credence....

No problem
After a technical contest we just had I figured a free for all might be nice

I am trying to read into the contest title which is "Summer Fun" and would therefore like to know if the poem should necessarily be funny?

No
Contest rules are pretty explicit.write on any subject in any style the only limitation is number of lines.
