Hi Stan
you have really come up with a good contest theme and looking to many responses thus far, I now understand why you said :shake off the cobwebs" which is what many have done..

popping up to ask if poem exceeding 19 lines would meet the criterion for this contest or the upper limit is 19 lines?

Hi raj
I guess you can exceed the limit but doing so will disqualify from winning

Hi Stan
Considering a good response to the contest which ended on 28th I guess there could be a good level of enthusiasm among participants about which poem the judge chooses to be the winner...
good luck to all participants..
