*Star**Star*The Star Trek Poem Contest*Star**Star*


Round ELEVEN  September 1st to September 16th


Hail, Star Trek Fans!  Yes, I mean you, even you who are cloaked and hiding out, in denial!

Dust off your phasers and unwrinkle your uniforms and get ready...
'Cause STAR TREK is Back!
 
So far we 've seen poems take trek where it's never gone before. Kirk in an asylum and then romancing his ship, trek characters comment on a romulan movie, a Star Trek Quatrain, a Poetry slam, trek limericks, an acrostic and even the Borg show up! Generations for trek characters meet in time rift and Spock meets himself! No Bones about it! *BigSmile*

The challenge is set.  So send a poem from your star trek muse! *Star*

*Balloonr* This month is the 16th anniversary of WDC, so this round is dedicated to the WDC ship!  *Salute*
It is also the 50th Anniversary of STAR TREK on Sept. 8th. *Alien*

So let's talk parties!

Write a Fan Fiction Narrative Poem in honour of the 50th year of Star Trek Anniversary on Sept. 8th! *Alieng*
It will be based on  a Birthday scene in episodes in any star trek show that mentions birthdays.
eg.
Kirk might do a log entry about how he feels about his friend and the gift he recieved---prompted by this scene.

You can check out images from those episodes as well. Voyager had a lot of birthdays!
Kes had a blue cake.*Cake*

Narrative poetry is a form of poetry that tells a story, often making use of the voices of a narrator and characters as well; the entire story is usually written in metered verse. Narrative poems do not have to follow rhythmic patterns.




Boldly go  wherever your imagination will take you.
