Freak board Contest - Ode to the King of the Dead-WINNER ANNOUNCED!

[lcummins]

Entry?

Yeah, I sent mine last night after your reminder also. Thanks again for the contest Dave!

 

[Nemo Nint]

I just submitted my entry too! I hope it was received, Dave!

I don't have a King of the Dead but it is very wonderful looking. Actually I am kinda excited to submit 'cause I haven't made any nice poems in a while but usually I am okay at making them. This will be awesome, I can't wait to see who wins. Contests are always fun, but especially ones where the prizes are really exciting to me personally, even if I don't win.

 

[Darklord Dave]

Got all of yours - now where is everyone else's?

 

[Nemo Nint]

I hope you don't mind me submitting an update Dave.

Since you'll go through them when the contest completes, I"ll just mention the update inside the email.

I was looking it over and found 2-3 spelling mistakes and some wording I wasn't fond of, I think it's as polished as I want it to be, now.



GAH.. okay I feel stupid- I sent the update minus part of it.. so, you'll now have not one but two emails from me that form my update.

I should have just written something simple like the Violets are Blue, Roses are Read King of the Dead one...

Arrrghhhhh...The Suspense!!!!!

It's Wednesday now,
don't have a cow.
The winner's not posted,
my brain's now toasted!



The suspense is KILLING me! Best of luck to all who entered!

 

[oxbeard]

Yeah, good luck everybody!!

 

[lcummins]

Good luck everyone!

There once was a King of the Dead,
Who caused Men of the West fear and dread.
He met Aragorn,
And brought help in the morn;
His oath was fulfilled and he fled.

 

[PsychoCenobite]

Good luck everyone!

I'm going to be refreshing this page all day!

King of the Dead!
Stone for a bed!
Intangible head!
Haunts my tool shed!

 

[Darklord Dave]

There are so many good entries it's difficult judging and I've had to call in extra help - will announce the winner soon!

 

[Stridersbain]

King of the Dead, oh King of the Dead
The one Statue missing, from beside my bed.
The potential winner, announcement soon.
Maybe sometime this afternoon.
My anticipation grows, as time slips by.
"Must have this polystone!" I scream and cry.

 

[Nemo Nint]

Hey, SB... I like that!
Except for me.

"Must have this polystone!" I scream and cry

kidding kidding..


oh crap I just remembered something..

 

[Stridersbain]

Another day has come and gone,
The winner's light has not yet shone.
So I must wait a little more,
With nails bitten and fingers sore
For the King of the Dead
To reach my door............

 

[lcummins]

?

Aragorn, Aragorn, why did you flee?
I thought I would win you, don't you see?
Alas, alas, it was not to be;
Maybe the King of the Dead for me?

 

[Nemo Nint]

The courses unknown-
Dread paths King of the Dead trod
In mountain ice-cold.


Insomniacs ache-
Nerves keep us up late.
A statue's at stake-
How long must we wait?



A poem contest
Midst Autumn's colourful dance
A wonderful thing.


Once upon a Time
People fought with rhyme
For a King,
Dead rotting,
Green skin like a lime.

 

[Stridersbain]

Another day draws to a close.
Who has won, no one knows.
I'll look tomorrow, when I'm online,
And hope this statue will be mine.
For me right now, it's off to bed
To dream of his majesty,
The King of the Dead
