Senryu battle to the DEATH! (Not really)

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all etcetera, I cordially invite you to enter my new contest!

This is a senryu contest!

I will judge you on 3 things: Content (seeing as senryus are to be about a certain topic), structure and the overall greatness of your poem.

Rules: MUST be a senryu. (Automatic dq if it isn't.)
I will allow a max. of 2 poems per poet.

Contest ends on Wednesday, July 26th.

Now spin me some good poetry!

If you Don't know what it is...Go to Shadowpoetry.com

A gem from the eyes
Is conceited by beauty
Remnants in disguise

Brilliant bright stars
Fading before sun arrives
Nothing stays the same

A kiss from you

Luscious, sweet, tangy
Addicting, passionate lips
Eyes pulling me in

Watching patiently
Hoping that they look your way
Love's war is in vain

Cold Tears {Senryu}

Cold tears stain her cheeks,
As they're streaming down her face,
Now for the last time.

{P.S. This was soooo hard for me. It really did take me a few days to do it. I can't do poems with short lines, Lol}

Alright, just a few more, and I'll keep it opened until wednesday.

Alright. So I don't feel that there are enough poems entered to judge, therefore I will not judge.

At least I inspired a few to write!

:D

Sorry guys, but I guess people don't know senryus or just don't like them. 'Tis a shame, really.

Good job, though, guys! I'm proud!
