Is this thread not noticeable enough or are people simply not interested in poems and don't want to vote? If it is the latter, then we shouldn't continue with such contests anymore.

With 8 entries and only 10 votes, we cannot declare a winner. I have extended the deadline by 10 days. Keep voting.

The deadline is extended by 10 days.

Is there really a point? I visit the forum from my phone and even I can see the contest banner at the top of the page so I’m sure others can too. Members just aren’t very interested. I personally think you should just announce a winner

 

[AabiruSabeel]

Only two poems have more than 1 vote. One of them was also voted by the author as well, so there is actually a tie between them.

Some of the members are only using our mobile app and they cannot vote. Instead, they have clicked 'like' on the poems. If we consider those likes, then there are 3 poems which have similar number of votes+likes.

We do need a few more votes to determine the winner.

I think it´s ok to extend voting time. As I remember, when we had writing contest at the last time, there too came more votes after extension of voting time. We can wait few more days.

But now hurry up members and vote!

(No cookies if you don´t vote.)

Wow some really good poems on the poetry competition for me it was between 4 7 and 8

 

[Supernova]

As you all know - I was going to enter the competition but I didn't want to win it hands down

 

[sister herb]

Is voting over as it´s already 21th day?

 

[noraina]

Ma'sha'Allah, the entries this year were so good!

Come on, people, we need to cultivate literature and the arts, like poetry and writing and painting! I would have definitely submitted an entry, but I've come here after quite a long time...

Not yet, we still have members returning after a long time. The voting was extended for 10 days, until 25th December.

Asalamualykum,

Sorry i have just bumped into this thread.

Alhamdulilah very good creative poems.

I have 2 favourites but only 1 vote. :exhausted

Jazaka Allah for sharing. I like how everyone got to choose their own topics. Job well done.
