The time has arrived to choose three poems that we'd like to represent MM in the March IBPC competition. I've set the poll up to allow you three votes (as separate questions) - the numbering rank does not matter in this POLL as we we net all cumulative votes from the three questions.
Please click on the reply that has the url's in the poem titles to re-read them all and then kindly select your three choices. PLEASE DO NOT CHOOSE THE SAME POEM THREE TIMES - please choose three different poems.
The three poems with the highest cumulative number of votes will be chosen. In the case of a tie, the staff of MM will break it with a separate poll.
Just a reminder that in all our POLLS, your votes will remain anonymous so PLEASE, DO cast your votes today! This poll will close on Feb 28th.
The following poems have been nominated and 'accepted for nomination' by the authors for the March IBPC competition:
Juxtapositions by Gregory Broadbent
Little Hopper Learns a Lesson by Eira Needham
The Case of Candlelight by Ron Jones
The Odyssey Imps by Cathy Bollhoefer
The Sign by Sylvia Maclagan
Melodies of Life by Eira Needham
Transcendence In Alice's House by Tim Blighton
The Prick by Alan McAlpine Douglas
Climacteric by Cynthia Neely
On the Wire by Elizabeth DiBenedetto
Best of luck all. ~Cleo

Hi Lori, I sent out a PM to various active members to remind them to come on down and put their votes in! This month is extremely a difficult task, as each poem is really, really hat's off to the best of the best! Wishing everyone LUCK in the polling ... Hugs, Liz

The three noted in red below will be the ones sent to represent MM in IBPC's March comp. Since Cyn's poem, Climacteric, is also nominated at another participating board - I will plan to submit a fourth (unless I hear from Cyn as to which board by tomorrow) which will be Juxtapositions by Gregory.
Thanks to everyone who voted.
The polling results are as follows;
Juxtapositions ~ 5 Little Hopper Learns a Lesson ~ 2 The Case of Candlelight ~ 2 The Odyssey Imps ~ 3 Thw Sign ~ 2 Melodies of Life ~ 3 Transcendence In Alice's House ~ 7 The Prick ~ 1 Climacteric ~ 8 On the Wire ~ 6
ttl: 13 members @ 39 votesBest of luck to Cyn, Tim and Liz (and Gregory if Cyn's opts to be represented by poets.org instead! Climacteric ~ 8 Transcendence In Alice's House ~ 7 On the Wire ~ 6 Juxtapositions ~ 5
