Wow! That's a Holiday? 7-9-7

Poetry Contest
There are official holidays in countries all around the globe that most folks who are not from that part of the world have never heard of.... Examples are Kamuzu Day in Malawi or Fiji Day in Fiji or Nari Debas in Nepal...the possibilities are in the hundreds (maybe more)! In this contest, you are to write a 7-9-7 to shine some light on one of these for everyone to be able to join the fun! Your entry can be funny or serious or anything in-between -- just make it celebration for all! :)

A 7-9-7 is a three-line poem with 7 syllables in the first line, 9 syllables in the second line, and 7 syllables in the third line.

The contest winner will win half of the prize pool which is based on the number of entries. The second and third place winners will each share the remaining prize pool. The prize pool is currently 40.00 member dollars. There are 10 spots still open. If all open spots are used the prize pool will be 90.00 member dollars. In this contest at least 2 submissions must be made for the vote to begin.

Deadline: Contest is closed. Deadline was Wednesday, January 30, 2019.
