I am currently working on my blog post for the March 15 Blog Hop - an Oscar de Wilde original poem - which will be a pet's eye view of pet adoption. I was immediately inspired when I read about the 'Adopt the Internet' day and I have been writing (and re-writing) ever since.
That said, I have come to the conclusion that this poet doesn't know it all when it comes to pet adoption! I mean, honestly, I am just one dog and there can be so many points of view on the subject of pet adoption...so, I have come up with 'The Poet, Doesn't Know It (All)' Contest.
It's a simple contest, really - and the winner gets to have their 'lines' placed in my Oscar de Wilde original poem for the March 15 blog hop and a co-author credit for the poem (there also may be some treats mailed to the winner as well - we love mailing treats!).
All you need to do is leave your original 'lines' for the poem as a pawprint (comment) on this post.
- Maximum four lines per entry;
- Use any meter and rhyme scheme you want (lines do not have to rhyme);
- Lines can be about your adoption or pet adoption in general; and
- Remember to express how you FEEL in your lines.
Ready...set...WRITE!
