^ AssalamuAlaykum, awesome! :D
No theme, no rules insha'Allah.
PM me once ur done, once deadline is up they'll be posted in a thread and judged by the public (public poll) ... Only rule is during that time you musnt give away which entry is urs, JazakAllah khayr! :D
A tip: There isnt a word limit but just stick to a poem of moderate length, too short = not a lot of substance and too long = readers lose interest.
Hope that helps!
Wassalam

Some would argue that it is unfair for entries to be revealed...

Dang, sorry I thought I had written in the opening post that judging was poll-based. The authors names will not be included anyway so isnt that ok Sevgi? You can remain anonymous even after voting is over if u wish. The entrants names are not included whilst voting is ongoing so as to eliminate bias.

To be honest, I think having the names hidden would make the competition more interesting. People will be voting without bias and the person who comes last wont be humiliated.
