It's time for your poetry to shine!
Whether or not you're an expert in the art of poem-writing or a general novice, it doesn't really matter; we're all capable of writing something, and poetry is just stories from our hearts and minds!
[/li][li]All entries will receive 10 points for their House (professors can choose with House or Houses to distribute the points). The winner will receive 50 points, whereas one runner up will receive 25 points.
[/li][li]The winners will be determined by the members! That's right -- after the contest ends (1st February) the members will vote! Keep in mind, however, that we know what characters belong to whom; if you vote on multiple characters, that would be entirely unfair and voting for the entries might have to be determined by the admins. Voting will be open for about one week after the contests ends; therefore, you have until 8th February to decide a winner.[/li][/ul]
We (Salina, Evan, Sam-Sam, Chris) hope for a major turnout! Remember, we're all capable of writing something, and it's not about being the best poet -- it's about the message and the creativity.

- You may only post one poem per person -- we can do an IP check, so don't think you can sneak around and use a different character to post another poem.
- It must involve winter in some way! It can just talk about the season, be about an event (such as a festival), refer to blizzards and snowstorms... Just make sure that it's about winter.
- You must still follow the site rules; the poem doesn't have to be about Harry Potter, of course, but don't post anything that's incredibly inappropriate -- be mindful of the younger viewers.
- This is a poem
