I don’t know who will read this. It has been a while since I have visited poetry.com and I’m so disappointed to see that the “Poetry in Motion” contest with the little word tiles is no longer available.
I never won, but for me entering was never about winning (although it would have been nice,) it was about the challenge and increasing my vocabulary.

Interesting site, but much advertisments on him. Shall read as subscription, rss.

Poetry.com was one of the reasons I kept writing poetry,so it is sad to have seen so much negativity with regard to the previous owners.I reckon they did the best they could.I won one silver and a bronze and had many poems published into anthologies.So for nine years I had fun,here is hoping the next nine is just as enjoyable with the new owners.LuLu is PEARL in Arabic.Pearls of wisdom I’m hoping.

It was very nice to receive a message that I was a winner, but sadly I still didn’t receive the promissed price! I did react within 30 days, so what’s the reason?

Hi Ludy,
That is very distressing to hear, especially since I know we sent out payment to our May contest winners on June 15th. I have asked someone from our support team to follow up with you by email to confirm your PayPal information. We will see about getting your prize payment out.
Congratulations again on winning.
Annie
