National Poetry Competition Usa

Over a thousand years ago, the world was a battlefield. People with different powers fought relentlessly, and war and chaos became a daily routine. It was an age without peace until a mysterious woman—believed by many to be a divine messenger—arrived and changed everything. She proposed a competition to determine the five strongest abilities, and the victors would be crowned as rulers. The competition was fierce and merciless, but in the end, five champions emerged: the Lightning King, the Weapon Nation King, the Fire King, the Ice King, and the Air Queen. As a reward for their triumph, they were gifted special crowns that granted them immortality. The only way they could lose their crowns—and their lives—was by being defeated by their own bloodlines. With their newfound powers, the five rulers created nations, carved out territories, and established family lines. Under their reign, knights, branch leaders, princes, princesses, commanders, generals, and lieutenants formed a new world order. However, as with all things, peace came with its price. There was never good without bad. And now, the paths of the five nations are set to cross again. Which will you choose? The prodigies of the Lightning Nation, the bloodthirsty warriors of the Weapon Nation, the fiery determination of the Fire Nation, the analytical tacticians of the Ice Nation, or the peaceful killers of the Air Nation? All roads will converge in the "Five Nations"

This is a fan translation I could hear the hum of life in my ears. It was hard to breathe…. … I raised my gaze and stared into the distance. However, my blurred vision could not see anything. The light began to fade. That was my last memory. When I opened my eyes once again, it was 10 years before that last memory took place. And of all the things I could have become, it was from the enemy country that drove Secretia to ruin – I became Kyris’ third prince Calian.

This is my third poetry to BFF, written on February 6th, 2024. You said dolphins clapping sea tide in dream By: Amoureax Amant You said dolphins clapping sea tide in dream, sea tide crashing on shore laid in sunbeam, shore sand kissing ocean waved on island, ocean turning orange orange-stained sand. You came like floating cloud aloft blue sea, watched turtles slept under coconut tree, with melody of birds came with sea tide, with reflection drifting toward shoreside. You went like falling rain aloft heaven, fluttered like morning dew dropped in ocean, vanished like foam of fish fluttered in air, like spray of sea blossomed fairer than fair. Perhaps you were mirage appeared garden, or else you were angel came back heaven.

In “Red Alert,” Le Hong Phong, a Red Alert enthusiast and former sociology student, is suddenly transported to an alternate timeline where Vietnam has disappeared, Baghdad is a lost patch of sand, and history is rewritten in a “do-it-yourself empire” style. With the unique “Red Alert” system, I can summon troops, tanks, and all sorts of “military toys” without having to wait for software updates. But not everything is as I dreamed: the terms, logistics, and “military” cuisine make life so ironic and sarcastic that you have to laugh and shake your head at the same time. While building an underground base and providing resources for the entire empire, I had to struggle with the “absurd” terms of the system – from strictly limited population summoning to maintaining tanks so they don’t turn into scrap metal.

"A Journey Through Poetry” is a heartfelt exploration of how poetry becomes the voice of our deepest emotions and unspoken thoughts. In a world where words often fall short, this collection reminds us that poetry has the power to express what cannot always be said aloud. Whether it’s the joy of love, the pain of loss, or the quiet musings of the soul, each poem is a journey into the heart of what it means to be human. This book invites readers to embark on a personal voyage of self-expression and reflection, offering a safe space for the untold stories that we carry within. Through lyrical verse, the author captures the delicate dance between silence and speech, showing how poetry serves as both a shield and a mirror—protecting our vulnerabilities while reflecting our truest selves. In “A Journey Through Poetry,” the act of writing becomes more than just an art; it becomes a means of healing, of sharing, and of finding connection when words alone cannot bridge the gap. For those moments when the heart is too full to speak, poetry whispers what we cannot say.

This is my second poetry to my BFF, written on October 28th, 2023. I envied redwood stretched toward heaven By: Amoureax Amant I envied redwood stretched toward heaven, whose branch in branch like hand in cloud ocean, whose leaves like thread weaved curtain covered sky, whose spot like stage light lit for butterfly. I envied stray bird hummed with bugs echo, whose siren song spread through redwood shadow, whose feather swirled like lone-drifting snowflake, whose wings like flash slipped through green amber lake. I envied cowboy rode through siren sight, whose horse ran on green sea plain at twilight, whose gun aimed at wild deer in green forest, whose bonfire cooked deer meat in light gauze mist. I envied fish blew bubble in amber, whose bubble bloomed as gorgeous as flower.

This is my first poetry to my BFF, written on March 7th, 2023. Peach blossom bloomed as gorgeous as bloom rain By: Amoureax Amant Peach blossom bloomed as gorgeous as bloom rain, at branch in full peach blossom on mountain, but left tree branch with wind through amber lake, toward fragrant sea like drifting snowflake. Just left when butterfly danced through peach tree, just left when hummingbird echoed with bee, when rising sun turned dark cloud peach blossom, when drifting rain fell from misty cloud dome. What if peach blossom stayed till September, peach blossom might neither dance through water, nor travel with light breeze through small arbor, toward vast sea like boat sailed from harbor. What if peach asked of peach blossom's journey, here's the answer, freer than in valley.

【 Warning : Mature Content R-18 】 This was a transmigration. And it was an astonishing second transmigration. Although the first one ended rather abruptly... Arriving at the riverside, the child crouched down, scooped up a handful of cool water, and drank it. The sweet and clear river water was more delicious than any beverage on Earth. The child exclaimed loudly, "How refreshing!" Gazing at the water surface, the child's face took on a solemn expression, as if painstakingly brewing something. His eyes suddenly closed, and when he opened them again, an evil aura suddenly emerged on the calm water surface. In the reflection, the innocent - looking child actually had a pair of blood - red eyes! The water surface was rippling, rising and falling, with glistening waves. Yet, those blood - red eyes remained distinct. On the evil - looking blood - red background, a black tomoe slowly rotated around the center of the eye. It was the Sharingan! What followed was quite clear. Lin Xing, an unfortunate guy, had unfortunately transmigrated into the world of Naruto. He managed to survive until the night of the Uchiha clan's massacre, and then, unfortunately, died. This was truly a tragic story! Lin Xing didn't, like many transmigrated heroes, fight Obito and defeat Madara. It wasn't that he lacked talent. In Lin Xing's words, "Geniuses are often nipped in the bud." In the world of Zhu Xian, gods above, Lin Xing was even younger than Sasuke! So, on that fateful night, Lin Xing ran desperately. Suddenly, a ripple appeared in the space ahead, and the big - boss - like figure emerged. Lin Xing didn't even have time to see how the opponent attacked before losing consciousness. Well, let bygones be bygones. Lin Xing stood up, deactivated the eye - catching Sharingan, and looked towards the south. According to what the shopkeeper said, Qingyun Sect was in that direction. The world of Zhu Xian was full of disasters. When it came to the best place of refuge, Qingyun Sect was undoubtedly the top choice. Lin Xing promised that if he died this time, he definitely wouldn't transmigrate again. The first transmigration was a soul - transmigration, which was quite normal. The second one couldn't really be considered a proper transmigration in the strict sense. The Sharingan was still there, his five - year - old body remained the same, and even the other - world clothing he wore before his death was intact. Lin Xing guessed that something must have gone wrong with the masked man's space - time ninjutsu, and by some strange coincidence, he was sent to this world. If he were to die this time, he would truly lose everything. Having made up his mind, Lin Xing vowed to join Qingyun Sect.

When a modern doctor succumbs to exhaustion in the midst of a global pandemic, he awakens in the past—as Erik, the newly crowned king of Sweden in the 14th century. But this is no ordinary second chance at life. The Black Death is on the horizon, and Europe teeters on the edge of collapse. As war brews between kingdoms desperate for power amidst the coming devastation, Erik must navigate the treacherous world of medieval politics, where alliances are fragile and betrayal is inevitable. Armed with knowledge centuries ahead of his time, he faces a dire question: can he alter history and save his people from the greatest catastrophe in human history? Or is fate as unyielding as the plague itself? With enemies at his borders, a wary royal court, and whispers of divine punishment sweeping through the land, Erik must use his wits, his medical expertise, and his newfound authority to rewrite the destiny of a dying world. But the more he intervenes, the more he realizes—some diseases run deeper than flesh and blood. A tale of war, survival, and the burden of knowledge, Plagueborn is a gripping historical fantasy where the fight for a kingdom is overshadowed only by the fight against death itself.

"Cheers!" Four glass cups clinked gently together. Inside the rather cramped room, three men and a woman sat cross - legged around a low table. The four, holding their cups, had fiery eyes. Peanut shells and bread crumbs were scattered on the table. "You're something, really something. What on earth have you done? You actually made that big - shot so surprised that his jaw nearly dropped." The woman leaned closer, her eyes full of allure. "Hmm, should I tell?" The man lifted his cup to his lips, deliberately playing hard - to - get. "If you don't tell, you're not a brother then." Another man raised his eyebrows. "It's not that I don't want to tell, but if I do, I'm in big trouble." The man continued to create mystery, focusing on sipping his wine. "Why?" The man sitting next to him asked in confusion. "Because..." The man leaned in ambiguously. "He promised me that if I gave him the name of the inventor, he would give me all his property. But, I have to keep it a secret." "Hey, you're not going to sell out for just a bit of money..." Another man said. "Get out while you can. That's my principle." The man said in a low voice, and on purpose, he blew hot air onto the neck of the man beside him, making him laugh softly. "Besides, with this money, Xiaomo and I can live comfortably for a lifetime, right?" The man playfully picked up the pull - ring of the beer can. "Marry me? I'll give you a mansion, plus a yacht, and two unlimited - credit platinum cards. Take you to Europe in summer and to Tahiti in winter. We don't have to work 365 days a year. Just lie..." "Pah, pah, pah. What nonsense you're talking." The man quickly covered the other's mouth. "Someone's listening." "Oh, we were just about to go for a walk. Make yourself at home, feel free." The woman waved her hand and stood up unsteadily. "Take care. I'll pay off the rent I owe you in one lump sum tomorrow." The man didn't turn his head. Instead, with a ferocious expression, he pressed himself on another man, making him struggle and laugh loudly. "You're so heavy. Get off me quickly!" "Oh? I have to calculate this carefully. For two people? Charge you 10,000 per person per month. By now, you exactly owe 2.4 million. In these unstable times, only cash or checks are accepted." The woman hiccuped. "Don't worry. No problem." The man turned his head and laughed at them. "I won't renege. Are you still afraid that..." However, halfway through his words, as a shadow fell, the man's face suddenly turned deathly pale. Not only him, the other three people looked in the direction he was staring at. Several men had entered the door and were standing in the entrance hall. "Which one is Tony Zhang? We need you to come with us." In the hands of the five men were shiny black firearms.

Cao Yucheng had two children, who were the apples of his eye. Although his eldest son, Cao Xiaorui, was not his biological child but was brought into his family by his wife when she remarried. Back then, Cao Yucheng's mother vehemently opposed his wife's entry into the family. His wife was nine years older than him and was a divorced woman with a child. No mother - in - law would be fond of such a daughter - in - law. Cao Yucheng himself was tall, promising, and young. He could have found any decent woman. Why did he have to choose a "second - hand" woman with a child in tow? However, Cao Yucheng disregarded his mother's objections, secretly got married to his wife, and began a life for the three - member family. For Cao Yucheng, who became a step - father right after entering society, he not only didn't feel ashamed of this but also didn't think that a six - or seven - year - old child would bring much extra pressure to his life. Instead, he was extremely grateful to his wife for giving him such a well - behaved, sensible, and obedient son. When Cao Xiaorui first came to his home, he was already much more sensible than ordinary children. When his parents were not at home, he would do all the housework he could. Mopping the floor, cleaning the table, washing vegetables, and folding clothes were all within his capabilities. His academic performance was also the best in the class. All these brought great honor to Cao Yucheng. Many biological fathers might not have a son that everyone envied, while he, as a step - father, had all the glory and less of the endless worries that a biological father would have. Cao Yucheng was quite satisfied with his life at that time. After getting married, his wife gave birth to a biological son for him. The whole family of Cao Yucheng was immersed in extreme joy, believing that there was nothing happier in life than this. He used his happy life to prove to all those who had opposed his marriage how correct his choice was. Unfortunately, people can't always be successful and happy throughout their lives. Just after his younger son, Cao Xiaoqi, celebrated his tenth birthday, his wife encountered a mudslide during a group outing organized by her unit. Only four people survived in the full - loaded vehicle. This incident was very sensational at that time, and major newspapers and media competed to report it. Cao Yucheng's wife's name could be easily found on the list of victims by those who paid attention.

Moe, a recent graduate from a prestigious university, is on the hunt for a job when fate takes an unexpected turn. After acing a crucial interview, he finds himself in a life-altering accident that transmigrated him into a Fantasy world. After transmigration, instead of gaining extraordinary powers, he awakens in the body of Arthur Jr., an incompetent king ruling over the small kingdom of Keldoria. In a realm where magic is commonplace, Arthur Jr. is unable to wield any magic abilities, leaving him at a significant disadvantage. However, armed with the authority of a king and the knowledge of modern society he will transform the small kingdom of Keldoria into a advance nation where technology and magic coexist. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- -----Disclaimer------- This is a pure kingdom-building story that emphasizes the economy and technological advancements of a nation rather than magic or the strength of a single individual. This is also a slow-progression story(Slow burn!!!), focusing on governance, development, and strategy. While the pacing may feel slow, I will ensure that each chapter remains engaging and immersive. Readers who prefer fast-paced stories with an overpowered protagonist from the start may find this novel different from their usual preferences. Expect a strong focus on macroeconomics rather than microeconomics, as this story revolves around building and managing an entire kingdom rather than running a single business. The protagonist will not possess overpowered abilities or cheats such as system, but will rely on his intelligence, knowledge, and authority as a ruler to shape his kingdom’s future. It is my first time ever to write a novel so to be honest, I use AI(GPT and Blackbox.io) to enhanced/rewrite my writing. However the idea, world building, concept and everything else is written by me and me alone. So reader who enjoy 100% Human work I am sorry to disappoint you, however I don't use AI by giving it idea prompt and copy pasting the result but I write on my own then I use AI to enhance my writing style and making it more enjoyable to read. Thus the writing may involved AI but it is 100% human idea and concept. Hope you enjoy!!!!
