^ I don't think that's a problem NMD. I fact, I think it's awesome that you spent so much time on it. It makes me think you went over them carefully and actually gave thought to your comments and judging. Not a lot of people would agree to do that much work and not even get much out of it. Thank you again! You seem like a truly kind person. That, or you just love reading poetry. :P Thank you again!

OK, here's my poem...(Thanks pip that I could still enter it :hug: )
It's a fan fic poem that deals with Arwen's relationship to Aragorn and that was written by her after he had left Rivendell with the fellowship.


For you
(Arwen's poem to Aragorn)

Our love was only meant to be a dream-
A beautiful dream, but one with a sad ending
For you and me.

We both knew at once
That worlds lie between us two, but
For you and me that did not mean anything.

They said the fate of an Elf and a Man in love
Must always be bitter and full of sorrow, but
For you and me this seemed impossible.

From the hour we met life was full of joy,
We could not imagine to part one day,
For you and me nothing else existed except for our love.

Now as Middle-Earth lies under a dark shadow
Our predicted fate seems to become true, but
For you I try to change the course of time.

My life should go on and on forever,
Peacefully I should rest in the West, but
For you I decided to refuse this gift.

I will share the fate of Lúthien,
I will spend my life at your side,
For you I have given up my immortality.

My decision was hard to understand for many,
I was told I would not be wise, but
For you I will take this risk.

My life is uncertain by now,
I do not know how it will continue, but
For you I will abandon my people.

I can hardly wait for the day when we shall meet again,
My heart feels so empty and cold, but
For you I will wait until the end of days.

I cannot go into the West anymore,
My decision made once cannot be changed, but
For you and me hope did never die and will never do so.

^ That's very pretty Rose. I'm glad Pip decided to let you enter it.

And to answer your question Eariel, I don't think anyone except NMD was ever judging. Pip told me to ask around. I have no idea though. Do you guys knowa anyone who will judge?

^ Nope. Nobody's brought it up yet. And I wasn't trying to change it Pip. I was suggesting that we have more judges so that more opinions. I don't know if Kitoky would be up for that, but it's worth a shot. Do you want to do it Pip, since you're the contest mistress? Or would you rather someone else do it?

Oh! Right! I get it now! :blush: Like I've said before, I'm really not as dumb as I act sometimes.
Well, if it makes any difference, I really think you should be the one to PM Kitoky Pip. It's just kind of a natural thing for the contest miss to do I guess. I was just saying if you were strongly opposed to doing that, because some people are like that.
At leats one more judge after Kitoky(if she says yes) would be good, but we've had a hard enough time finding judges as it is. I don't know if we'll be able to rustle up any more. :( We can make do with what we have though.
By the way Pip, what happens for the winnners? Are you making awards or something? Or is it just bragging rights type things? I'm not trying to say you have to have awards or anything. I was just wondering.
I think that's all I have to say for now.
