Poetry Contest
Do you have a love poem or love quote that you would like to share with our visitors? Why not
enter it in our free monthly poetry contest? At the beginning of every month, we will select one
Love Poem and one Love Quote (from the entries received during the previous month) and add them to
our website. We will include a link to the winning poem and quote on our Home Page as well as in our
monthly newsletter.
First, please read our Terms & Conditions regarding
submissions (don't worry it's short). Once you have read that, please take note of the following
contest guidelines/rules.
Poetry Contest Theme: The theme of our site
(and contest) is poems and quotes that are positive, romantic, and easy to understand. Only
poems and quotes of this nature will be considered.
What NOT To Submit: Please do NOT submit
poems or quotes dealing with lost love, breaking up, depression, regret, impossible love, etc. These
topics are beyond the scope of this site. Please do NOT submit poems or quotes that are cynical,
bitter, or negative, that have nothing to do with love, or that have no romantic or sentimental
undertone. If someone won't "feel good" after reading your poem or quote, it does not fit into our
collection. Please do NOT submit poems or quotes that are highly abstract or surreal. We prefer
poems and quotes that can be appreciated and understood by all ages. Lastly, please do NOT submit
poems or quotes that make reference to sex or making love. This subject is not suitable for our
younger readers.
Please Spell Check:
We welcome submissions from all countries and all ages, however, proper spelling and grammar are
required. Entries with multiple spelling or grammatical errors will be ignored.
One Entry Per Person Per Month:
We receive entries every month. You are welcome to send a new poem or quote every month, but
please do NOT enter more than once during the same month.
Do You Have A Valentine's Day Poem?
We have recently added a section for Valentine's Day Poems and are looking for entries!
If you have read (and are respecting) the above guidelines, please send us an
e-mail with the words Poetry Contest in the subject line.
Please type your poem or quote directly in the e-mail rather sending an attached file. Please
include the name of the author which will appear underneath. If you are submitting an original poem
or quote (i.e. written by yourself), please specify your name as you would like it to appear. If you
are not the author of the poem or quote, please specify the author's name so proper credit can be
given.
