_Fall Poetry Contest_ For most of us, Summer has officially come to an abrupt end. It is now time to embrace the awe and beauty of Fall! The changing leaves... the crisp cool weather... the baked goods... Yum! Even if you don't live in an area that experiences the wonders of this season you can still write about it! Over the next week submit a poem (short or long!) about Autumn and you'll have an opportunity to win a prize! A public vote will occur during the first week of October to choose the winning poem. The author of the winning poem will receive $10 of ad removal for their InvisionFree or ZetaBoards message board. Your work will also be displayed on Planet ZetaBoards, so give it a shot! Use this topic for all your submitting needs! Ask questions if you have them.

Fall is here again leaves escape their spent branches as they turn to red Cold winds from the east push leaves and hide the sun Fall is here again woot! I win.

I feel sorrow for having another summer gone but I feel happy for the things I have done swimming, sunbathing, having a blast but this summer went by, it went by really fast But the fall is now here with all its beauty we all hold dear the wind, the rain, the colors and all that's what we call, yes we call it Fall Embrace this moment of year Because it's lovely and it makes you forget, forget all your fear __________ Thank you  |

Children play in piles of colorful leaves top to bottom. It's finally that time of year, the beginning of autumn. Time to grab costumes, Halloween is here. Ring the doorbell, and say trick or treat, you get candy from this cheer. November arrives, it's starting to get cold. Your unfinished candy starts to mold. The apple pie's smell goes outside from a breeze, Thanksgiving is here, eat with or without ease. But before you know it, the Holidays come to town. And you wake goodbye to fall, you sigh with a frown. No need to fret, no need to fear. For of course autumn will be here next year. |

"See you in the fall," you said. I nodded disappointed And then Sat under shade, Through too hot days, Painting skin white With cheap sun lotion, Clinging to the notion That you would return. Leaves relinquished green Licked at yellow, Dipped into orange, And bared their brown. Pale tan regained Its purple-grey And you never returned. |

The Fall Ahead by Karabox I remember waiting, Anticipating The coming days before And of previous summer's lore Every year I knew That the sky's bright blue Would soon be home to wind A signal of when fall begins Birds flying in the sky And Christmas shopping by The end of October Thanksgiving Hangovers Ah, yes, the days ahead And the great times they embed I know not what awaits me now But fun and fall, oh boy, oh wow. |

The season of joy is coming to an end. A now open sore in which even god cannot mend. As good times and memories come to a halt, we all wish that the ending could be corrected, a fixed fault. The season of life has ended. Life has fallen, like the city of Troy could not be defended. The light of our season that once was, has finally dimmed. The knowledge of love and life. Not even skimmed. I wish thee farewell, my lovely heated weather. The time of shorts and t-shirts is done. While it lasted, however, it was fine. I'll be right back - gotta go put on a sweater. |

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall Humpty Dumpty had a great fall His spring and summer pretty much sucked, though. [ *HelenaZF * hopes there is a category for fractured nursery rhymes] Edited by HelenaZF, Sep 28 2009, 09:36 PM.

And I thought I was skirting the system with a haiku.

I just hope that the person with the worst entry doesn't have to pay $10. |
