So instead of something trite and drearily obvious and orange hallowe'eny style - my contest for this month is about All Saints, and All Souls day...

I want you to write about death, and the dead. It can tie into hallowe'en as much or as little as you like but I'll warn you I am looking for some genuine and honest emotion here, Hallowe'en is a holiday - not an emotion, and it has been done.

by: :iconbornblitzed:

Anyone that rhymes with "flambéed" in a limerick must mean that it is awesome!

Both of these contestants and their entries will be featured in my journal as their prize! Congratulations, you two!


Second Place:

First Place:

7.

PS -- well done for picking out the ones that stuck to the metre in the end. A hell of a lot didn't and... though I know you said that might be overlooked, well... it's just not cricket!

But... excellent contest idea!

It's a great shame that =BornBlitzed did not win with his clever and intelligent masterpiece. The others were, in my opinion, not in good taste.
