DnW Poetry Contest #6 Announcement of Winners!!


Our heart says no,
But our wallet says to let go
We want to continue
But we don't have any rewards for you

So now I'll announce the DnW status
That we have decided to be on hiatus
And as a parting gift
We shall give some tokens to those who participate.

FALLING
By: @francistagbo

It started with a spark
A simple compliment from a pure heart
She smiled and gave me her number
11 digits to forget? I would never

We talked for hours everyday
Our hearts and minds alike in every way
She became my blessing
Then brought out the emotions I was suppressing

I started getting a tingly feeling
An itch I couldn't scratch
My broken heart was healing
I'd finally met my match

We shared a kiss on a lonely night
With the moon shining up above
You looked so beautiful under the moonlight
There and then I knew I'd fallen in love

Climb On To Love
By: @ayeensumbalan

On this beautiful twelfth day of March, I shall march
While the sun takes rest from a day of green grasses' parch
Unhurriedly be taking pride in the aisle o'er red roses,
Gowned in luxurious silk and detailed laces

Right in front of me, a sea of faces I see
But one fine-looking beau stands out for me
Then I remember this familiar feeling
Of the seven-year enthusiasm on dating

My Vow
First light loomed the first day of December
By the beach of white sand holding hands together
I will always dearly remember how I first fell in love
That it brought me this day bestowed from the One above

'Twas as if yesterday you would ask “how do you do?”
But here we are, God's our witness as we’re exchanging I do's!
You were never an accident because I believe God chose you.
Now, let's climb on further to love; and learn more of each other’s value.

My Sunrise
By: @charlotteroze

You're like sun in pouring rain,
everything that keeps me sane.
Every time I hear your voice,
your laughter echoes through my brain

You're everything I want, and everything I need
I want to make you smile in a way this world envies
I'll be the angel of your fantasies,
the cause of laughter in your sleep

So sexy, so enticing
you're the center of my dreams
Oh god, I love the way you feel
and the way you make me scream

Pretty lights and starry nights
don't even compare to the beauty in your eyes
You're even better than the sunset burning fire in the sky
I've been trapped in the darkest times, and you are my sunrise.

The Kiss that Led to Vows
By: @foragingquietude


image.png

You sat alone at the smoky bar,
A bleak expression stained on your face,
Underneath I knew there was more,
You longed for a romantic embrace.

We spoke and we laughed,
Our evening was slowly paced,
Your smile melted me like chocolate on a hot day,
Every feature on your face, perfectly placed.

Our first kiss was in the rain,
It was perfect, your tongue insane,
I knew at that moment,
A forever love, I had gained.

We talked about the future,
We shared our crazy past,
Little did we know, after two beautiful years,
We would be expressing our vows at last.

Second Time Around
By: @katiepals


image.png

It started with a hi
That ends with a goodbye
Ours has been my favorite almost
That puts my heart into chaos

Separated by distance
Even with full assurance
Relationship didn’t bloom
Feelings were kept in gloom

Years passed by so fast
Sorrows already surpassed
With a single serious conversation
The heart was in decision

Fallen in love all over again
To the man that I’ve always been dreamin’
And that almost was made into a closed deal
Happily took the risk in this life full of perils


C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S ! ! !


The token that I'm saying
Is not big, to begin with.
But, it comes from the heart
And we're glad that you've participated this far.

UNTIL NEXT TIME!

:) hi

Hello :)

:) how come i dont see u on steemitachievers more? are u busy all the time is why?

I seldom visit the group chat and discord because I sometimes cannot connect to the other members. I always come late at the convo so I chose to read the convo instead. But, I was one of the pioneers of the group, we're 11 at the time,I think? Or, I'm online and you're not. I was one of the dragon who always scold the new members who are not following the rules. Hehe. Anyway, I apologize if I cannot interact fully right now both in discord and group chat. I'm so busy because of my full time job too.

Hihih. no need to apalogize.. I DM'd u.. :)

yey! thank you.. second is so much ☺ i still can't believe it but thank you for lifiting my spirit for poetry (overwhelming kaau bisan bag-o pa ko and dli kaayo maau)

Just continue to write poems ate. :)

Awesome! Thanks for hosting the contest. It was fun!

Thank you! :)
