Okay....here's one, perhaps too easy, but think I'll love the poetry that results from it. Use the line: In the moonlight, shadows dancing in a poem...okay...let's see them  At the touch of love, everyone becomes a poet. ~Plato |

Ok Ruth, I posted my response to this challenge in OP5 =) Im scaring myself LoL, I am not one to write prose, ut I ahve been writing quite a few lately =) Anyways, poems called Tears Rolling Down Her Cheeks =) ~*~ ^i^ ~*~ Love is such a lonely art, and death is but a taste. Minds are merely instruments that often go to waste! ~*~ ^i^ ~*~ |

Ok I did one in OP5.. Not my best but I am experimenting.. (o: "Life's greatest mystery isn't the meaning of life. To love and be loved is the meaning of life. Now how to attain those is the greatest mystery of all." |

I just want to thank everyone for the overwhelming response to this challange. Never did I think so many would take me up on it or that I would be treated to such a fine assortment of poetry. Thanks everyone. The challange was outstandingly met I can live with the idea That we are merely actors Playing a part But I do wish Whoever is writing my script Would learn to use A few more Happy Endings ~Javan |

Alright, I posted up my poem so I can at least TRY to face up to a challenge. Its in Open Poetry #5, just as requested, and it is titled "Untitled". Basically this is my first time writing what I feel in heavy rhyming formation, so its basically in a metaphoric sense if you think about it. |

Ruth- I just wanted to say thank you for eliciting some of the most uniquely poems out of this one thought. Personally, the very lines began to pull thoughts from my head. I wrote and wrote and wrote. You opened a door that cascaded with ideas I didn't know I had stored. WONDERFUL CHALLENGE ... I enjoyed what it produced. Thank you, dear one.
