Thank you again to everyone who participated in this and to the judges, we couldn't have done this without you. As always, if you haven't read any of the comp poems, I suggest you do.

To the top three, I'll be in touch shortly concerning your prizes!

Woo hoo! Congratulations all. Good top three there. Even verbal who claimed he wasn't good at poetry. 😉😊

(Dang, did I time my morning visit well, or what?)

:worship:

Huge congrats to Kat, Mr Thespian, and Verbal! Great job!

I loved all the entries! Congrats to all for having the courage to write this crazy thing called poetry! ❤️

Congratulations on the wonderful wins Katarina, Jason, and verbal!

Congratulations to all who won Competition Top 10!

Congratulations and thank you to everyone who participated in "Beyond The Veil," a most wonderful poetry comp!

Thank you, Molly, for hosting yet another thought-provoking and challenging competition.

Thank you to all the judges of "Beyond The Veil."

I hope everyone has a lovely weekend. ❤️🌹

I'm incredibly honored to have placed in the top spot in this competition. All of the entries were so beautifully written. Congratulations to Jason and Verbal for their 2nd and 3rd place poems and those who placed in the top ten. Honestly, ALL of the poems were fabulous; I would not have wanted to be a judge. (But I'm sure thankful for those who DID the judging!).

Thanks so much, Molly, for a wonderful, challenging theme. 😊❤️

YEA Kat, Jason, and verbs! Way to go, guys (well, gal and guys, but … you know).

And congratulations to everyone who had the audacity to enter. It turned out to be a rollicking competition.

Wow! I really can't believe that. I really am the most awful poet (or so I thought), so am over the moon with this result!! Just don't ask me to make anything rhyme...

Huge congratulations to Kat and Verbal - I'm honoured to share the podium with you. And another massive pat on the back to the rest - there were some fabulous reads in this competition. Special mentions to those who are new to StoriesSpace or who haven't entered before.

Thank you Molly, for arranging this competition - it was good to have another crack at a poem (despite my initial reaction - oh, no - not poetry!!) Thank you also to the judges and everyone involved in organising the comp 😊

Thank you for including the above in your post, Jason. I was thinking the same.

Dreamweaver and expressomarkie, thank you for entering the competition. Congratulations on your Competition Top 10 wins! You both wrote lovely and beautiful poems.

May I say, this announcement has put me in the most cheerful and peaceful mood today. I am truly so very happy for you, Katarina, Jason, and verbal. Everyone who entered "Beyond The Veil" wrote intriguing and unique poems. Thank you for sharing your inspirations, emotions, dreams, and hearts. ❤️🌹

Very well done to KatarinaTechgoddess – I can only imagine how good it would feel to win a poetry competition!

Your poem, and Katarina's, were both touching and lovely. I truly mean that, Pnin. ❤️🌹
