For this contest, teens write a short poem, a haiku or "two-line,” and hang it on the tree in the BFL Teen Room.

 

All poems need to include at least one (can include more) seasonal word or word having to do with the earth, nature, and/or our environment. There will be prizes for the strongest poem, the runner-up, and for a poem selected by random drawing (everyone who writes a poem will be entered into the drawing).

 

Guidelines for writing the poems, as well as cards for hanging them, will be provided.
