The LOVEBIRDS Poetry Contest Winners Are...

[Failmingo]

The LOVEBIRDS Poetry Contest results are long overdue, but here they are at last!

 

(Here's the link to a PDF containing all of these standout entries.)
 

The grand prize winner, Crystalyn Kuhlmeyer ("a year in the life of birds") will receive both Lovebirds perfume blends plus 3 Lupercalia products of her choice. Congratulations!

The three runners-up, presented here in no particular order, each win a mated set of LOVEBIRDS perfumes! We trust you will give them a good home. Those winners are:
 

Scarlett St. James - "A Lovebird's Lives"
Jill Baguchinsky - "Wing in Wing"
Euna Bonovich - "In Love & After"

Because this was SO DIFFICULT, we have named a handful of Honorable Mentions. Surprise! Each of you will receive one bottle of the Lovebird perfume of your choice. Those names:
 

Hanna Hertzler - "Theatrebirds"
Jacqueline Wright - "The Pink and the Green"
Michelle Cast - "Lovebirds"
Cathy Podd - "Rapture"

We could have picked an entirely different set of entries to spotlight, without any detectable decline in quality. Such is the bind you have put us in! Especially since we are not qualified to “judge” your work in any significant way. Know that you have taken us on the wildest of emotional rides with your poems, and please PLEASE submit again when we launch our next poetry contest... which will be soon!
