Spiritual Poems
Great news for poets. The Texas Poetry
Alliance is offering a $1,000.00 grand prize in their annual spiritual poetry
contest open to the public. There is no entry fee and everyone is invited to
submit a poem.
"Our goal is to encourage new
talent," says Poetry Director Larrie Green. "In a world where poetry
is the Cinderella of the Arts, we are helping poets to find their glass
slipper. Spiritual poems, which may be written on any subject and using any
style, tend to inspire the reader, thus our desire for entries of a spiritual
nature."
To enter, send one poem 20 lines or less
to: Free Poetry Contest, 3412 -A Moonlight Ave, El Paso, Texas 79904. Or enter
on-line at www.freecontest.com.
The deadline for entering is January 18. A
winner's list will be sent to all entrants. The editors reserve the right to
publish the winning poems.
