My entry!:
The gazelles that leap
Over the grass as the sun shines on
In admiration
Eat flowers and plants and such.
They think they are clever.
The lions that sleep
Over the rocks as the sun shines on
In admiration
Eat gazelles and meat and such.
They think they are clever.
The humans that peep
Over the door of the truck as the sun
Shines on in admiration
Hunt everything around them.
They think they are clever.
They all think they are clever,
But...
The predators that lurks
In the shadows, in
The brightest sunlight, in
The deepest seas, that makes it's home
Everywhere
Doesn't think it's clever.
No.
It KNOWS it's clever.
It destroys everything and anything,
Grass, Gazelle, Lion, Human, Sun...
Time
Conquers all.
You think you're clever?
Think again.

Hi Celine.
I actually judge art (photographs/paintings/drawings), not poetry, so I will not review this submission. However, I like it very much. Your place on the contest, however, is determined by either Cloud Bunny or Hawkstar.

@Sine, here is my entry for the contest!

To anyone who knows, who is judging what? I'm thinking of doing either art or writing or both, but I want to know who to comment it to. Thanks!
(July 14, 2023 - 2:36 pm)
I believe Sine is doing art and Hawkstar is doing poetry. Cloud Bunny is probably doing writing then.
(July 14, 2023 - 5:16 pm)
Ahhhhh it's Holly Short from LEP!!! love those books :D I am judging poetry, and Sine is doing art.

Hi Hawkstar, I put my entry as a reply to Sine's comment even though I'm entering poetry, could you judge it pls if you haven't already? Thanks.

@Hawkstar, you're probably the first one to get that. I reaaaalllyy love those books, just finished rereading the series.
Thank you for the info, guys. I think I'm going to just submit an art piece.

Hello, this is probably my first posting ever!!! Any way, here is my entry:
The Fox is stealthy,
It's prey doesn't know it is near.
The Wolf has a sharp nose,
It's always one step ahead.
The Owl is soundless,
Flight you can never hear.
The Racoon is a foreger,
It survives off of dumps.
The Wood Thrush is charming,
It helps me go to sleep.
And the Humans kill,
ambushing nature.
-----------------------------
Note: The last part is not always true! I bet all of you who read this never killed a tree or ambushed nature to the point it's cruel. Some people do kill nature, but not all!

Oh also, GO LEMONS AND LIMES!!!
(They are very good for you)
(July 18, 2023 - 8:09 pm)
@Lemon&Limes, Hear hear! Very healthy! Except when I make lemonade and add a whole buncha sugar into it...
ooh, I love the bluntness of your poem, and how you contrast humans and other animals. Those are my thoughts too, I've had that opinion on humans since 2nd grade (and wasn't afraid to share it!)!
Also, I'm assuming you're new? If so, welcome to the CB! I find it a not funny that I'm welcoming someone when I myself was welcomed only about 3 weeks ago, but the CB already feels like a kind and supporting second hone and community to me, and I hope it becomes that for you, too!
Here are some links that I found helpful if you need them!:

oc, a rly good strategy is to just explore also (which I see you've done!), which also is good for seeing who's on here and seeing the community here
