Welcome to the almighty Poetry Contest! This is the continuation of the last contest I held. If you are looking for the previous contest to retrieve your entry, or review the winners, the old contest can be found here.
Check out my Profile!

Deadline:
June 7th (One week) -More specifically, 12:00 pm Eastern Daylight Savings Time Zone- The winners should be announced within a couple of hours, if not instantaneously.

Prizes:
1st Place: 1000 gold
2nd Place: 500 gold


--Note: There were only three contestants last time! I might have to extend the deadline. Ah! But I couldn't do that, it would break tradition! So introduce your friends to the guild! Spark up some interest!

--Note There were NO entries last week or the week before, so I saw no reason to create and close a thread. So this one is renewed for the next week!


Entry Fee:0 gold. As in free.


Rules:

All pieces must be entirely original (In other words, plagiarism is illegal).

You may submit a poem that was previously entered in another contest, unless that piece won (It would be unfair to the other contestants if there was a poem submitted that was proven to win another contest). And it has to fit the outline!

Keep the poetry within the pg13 boundaries (If your little sister couldn’t read it without suffering permanent trauma, then it isn’t allowed)

Post your entry here as well as sending me a copy via PM. If you make any alterations to your poem, send me the revised entry and I will accept it provided the contest has not ended. Entry might be missed if you don't pm them to me

Do not flame, degrade, or talk rudely of another contestants entry.

On occasion I might include a required word or a few in the outline that must be in the poem.


Those are the basic rules for the contest. Here is the outline for this specific Contest:

Outline:

Poem has to be between 4 and 40 lines.

Absolutely no swearing.

There is no necessity for a rhyming scheme or meter.

Necessary word to put in your poem:

[x]Decide


The word can be altered in any reasonable way.

The word must be in bold, for easy recognition!




Winners will be announced when the contest is over.

So what exactly is our theme? i get that we have to put the word 'mountains' in there, but other than that, is it just anything?
