Fell In Love With You The Day That We Met My Beautiful Muse I Have No Regrets Loving You Each Day I'll Always Be True Poetry I'll Say Together With You You're The One For Me Making My Life Whole You Set My Spirit Free I Give You My Soul

Public Announcement Challenge Winners
For the Public Announcement Challenge, writers were asked to work inside voices built for control. These were notices, warnings, and updates meant to inform rather than confess. The strongest entries committed to that form and didn't break from it. Corporate memos, formal government alerts, and internal policy language were held consistently, allowing emotion, fear, grief, or humor to surface indirectly through pressure rather than declaration. The following poems recognize the voice of authority, and let human feeling slip through despite all its rules and restraint.

Both the painting and your poem were so beautiful and complement each other perfectly!
Owls are gorgeous creatures, and your poem does them justice. Love it <3
I am a sucker for owls. Cute poem โค๏ธ
Beautiful villanelle. Well done.
Beautiful visuals for the eyes, ears and heart
Owls are very mysterious and probably why they are rarely seen in public. Its been years since the last time I've seen one, Loved your poem, Mike!
Druids, owls, stones - all those old world features made this full of the mysticism of the time, Mike.
Good job for I could see the owl sitting on his throne through your words.
Nice one, MIke!! Beautiful art, music and poem!
