Hello all poets,
it's spring and time for our 11th International Poetry Competition. Do hope you like this year' theme 'Stone' (it's for inspiration, not obligatory).
We've changed the modality slightly, now the Silver Wyvern winner will be chosen by Don Paterson from all three categories.
Guidelines on website www.poetryonthelake.org and below.
We look forward to reading your poems.

Always thought this was a wonderful poetry competition and wouldn't it be fantastic to be invited to northern Italy to participate. I also see they've reduced the entry fee - last year it was €10 with an extra €10 for entering online!
One thing - I have no idea how to send €7 (or €14 or €21 0r €28) in notes only!!
However it is still outside my €5 limit so, as Various Cushions would say, no idyllic Italian lake for your stammering poet this year.
