As I am very new to this form, I just had a question. Is it necessary that the first stanza be a statement of love and the next to be a response to that?
Hi @ForeverYoung299! For the purposes of this contest, yes - but you can interpret 'statement of love' very widely! For example, there was once a project done by a school where 'statement of love' was interpreted as 'something the world needs'.
