Leprechaun's Gold

People searched far and wide,
Looking for something they can't find.
“At the end of the rainbow!” They would say,
But trudged unhappily home at the end of the day.
People grew untrustworthy and greedy,
Trying to find something that was ugly and beady.
Things grew violent, malicious and angry,
Children grew sick, faded and hungry.
Wanting their parents love and support,
But they turned their back, cross their arms and snort.
So the children ran away,
A place where its safe to play.
A place where the angry people can't find,
A place where they can run and hide.
A place far away from the Leprechaun's Gold,
A place far away from the sinister cold.
A place in their head,
every time they pray and go to bed.

2008-11-23 [nehirwen]: No, last year I had zero entries, so I've removed that part of the contest for this year.

2008-11-23 [Artsieladie]: Ah, I kinda' thought maybe. ;P

2008-11-23 [nehirwen]: Always good to ask. :)

2008-11-24 [Artsieladie]: Oh, yeah. I agree because it never hurts to ask a question. If you don't ask questions, you're less likely to get answers. hehe

2008-11-24 [nehirwen]: And one could do the wrong thing, for unnecessary reasons. ;)

2009-02-02 [LunaWolfDragon]: Time to see how good my drawing skills have become since I've been practicing

2009-02-16 [LynnAnneBrown]: I hate to be a pain, but I have to ask......Why are the badges for this contest four leaf clovers and not shamrocks.

2009-02-16 [nehirwen]: Cause you get those (too) if you google shamrocks, and these give luck. :P

2009-02-16 [LynnAnneBrown]: Cool, that makes sense, talk luck to anyone Irish and you'll see our ears start to grow.

2009-02-16 [nehirwen]: ;)

2009-03-17 [FamousPanda]: So, is there going to be polls?

2009-03-17 [nehirwen]: >.<
*puts on to-do-list for today*

2009-03-18 [nehirwen]: <img:17985_1127690355.gif> SPD Poll 2009 :)

2009-03-25 [Artsieladie]: Exported the page and added keywords. :)

2009-03-25 [nehirwen]: Yes, I noticed. x) thanks

2009-03-25 [Artsieladie]: No problem. :) I see a lot of pages not exported. This is why when [Hedda] mentioned the 'exporting issue' on another page, one of the EPRM pages, I believe, I asked him, if I could go ahead and export pages that should be and he said to. It has happened that some of the pages got unexported, but I think [Hedda] squished that bug. hehe

2009-03-25 [nehirwen]: Yeah, original this page was exported. In my memory anyway - but it seems I have the memory span of 3 seconds. :p
All festival pages are and should be exported, good you're checking it all. :)

2009-03-26 [LynnAnneBrown]: Congratulations, JaJaJulie and pegasus1000

2009-03-26 [nehirwen]: I'll announce the poetry winner soon too. :)

2009-07-11 [nehirwen]: Pointless comments deleted.

2011-03-19 [LunaWolfDragon]: <.< damn do up a pic useing my avatar on imvu for this contest and i miss it
