Overall Poetry Contest   Written by Laraine (3/14/2011 2:07 p.m.)
Are you new?

Please email me your vote on which poem you felt to be best overall (my address is pemberley.laraine@gmail.com). I'll announce the winner on Thursday morning. Good luck to all--I hope you realize that you are all winners in our book!!

Here are our winners throughout the last two months:

Week 1 Haiku
A home of her own:
What a grievous business for
our poor Miss Taylor!

Week 2 Cinquain
Harriet
Childlike, artless
Obeying, conforming, following
Emma’s gentlewoman to be
Project

Week 3 Limerick
An upwardly mobile young vicar
Whose manners at times make us snicker
Had matters to broach
Alone in the coach
With Emma. This plot just gets thicker!

Week 4 Clerihew
Mr. George Knightley
Comports himself rightly
Eschewing inconvenient surprises
And duplicity in all of its guises

Week 5 Haiku
Forget the word “we”
Presumes brazen Missus “E”
It’s all about “me.”

Week 6 Cinquain
Knightley
firm, upright
observes, guides, tolerates
keeps spleen mosty private
benefactor

Week 7 Limerick
Emma Woodhouse was clever and rich,
Making matches was not her best niche.
She was horrified to find
Harriet made up her mind
Mr. Knightley was hers – back off witch!
