Competition closing date March 31, 2004

Prizes are as follows:

First Place --$200.00 CAD

Again this competition is FREE! Open to anyone, anywhere. Again, we pick the poems that move to the judging round and post them on our "Fina-List" board. That's right, you're auditioning every time you enter. Enter as often as you like, but once you've made the "Fina-List" you can only appear once . . . one poem in the finals per poet is the rule. Of course you retain all the rights to your work.
