Pull out your rhyming dictionary and wax poetic with the Prince Rupert Library

The poetry will soon be flowing at the Prince Rupert Library
as the Sixth Avenue West location hosts a Poetry Contest



To win the prize

You must realize

That words will count the most

So enter the fray
And offer your say
To see if you soon can boast



Calling all would be Poes, Longfellows, Atwoods and Musgraves, the Prince Rupert Library is seeking your poetic compositions for a contest asking contributors to share on the theme of " What Home means to me"

The competition is part of the Library's celebration of National Poetry Month, with registration forms available for three categories:

Children ages 7-11, 
Youth from 12 to 17 years of age 
Adults 18 and above.

The submissions can be handwritten or typed on one page, with a 1 inch border

The Deadline for contributions to the contest is 5 PM on April 26th.

The winning submissions will be on display in the library during the week of April 29th.

Prizes will be awarded on May 3rd
