A word to competitors

We enjoyed reading a lot of beautiful poetry, of various genres, through which the English word became pictorial, enriched in meanings, in love, traveled in chosen clothes to our souls. Because we didn’t want to leave this trip unpaid, we enriched the jury’s decision with two Grand Prizes (one for Romanian and one for English), which allowed the competitors to climb one place in the standings, so that we share as much joy as possible and give reasons to return at the next editions of the Poetry Contest.

We congratulate you all and thank you for the wonderful introspections of the soul, in a world too hurried, too superficial, too robotic, but more thirsty for beauty than ever!

Artistic director,

Diana Spânu
