Our Contest Nature 2022 is a new opportunity that we, as organizers, create to reach the rest of the world. Every Contest is a challenge for authors participating and to people that make it happen. This year we invite all authors to write poetry about Trees, Water and Nature Conservation, not forgetting the feelings of Love and Hope.

This year we would like to share with you an inspirational music video:

Today we share an old song from Romania that is performed at shepherd's pipe.

It may be very inspiring to write poems about nature.

Enjoy.

Dear Friends,

Due to the pandemic we changed our plans and we are about to reveal the results of the Literary Contest Nature 2020-2021 by the end of May.

With our kind regards.

1.
noi doi ne ciocnim
involuntar
atât de tare
încât facem brusc
schimb de vise
apoi adormim pe patul meu de gânduri
îmi reamintesc ca eu doar visez
ce mi se-ntâmpla
totul se întâmpla
atât de repede
cât pauza
între reclame
e toamna, îngenunchez, în fata padurii
ca în fata plutonului de executie
împart fiecarei frunze
câte o pâine coapta
strazile sunt pustiite
lumea e parasita

de o vesnicie
în loc de inima, am ridicat
o biserica
fara ziduri

In English:
we two collide
involuntary
so cool
that we do suddenly
exchange of dreams
then sleep on my bed of thoughts
I remind myself that I just dream
what happens to me
everything is happening
so fast
how much longer
between ads
it's fall, I kneel down in front of the forest
as in front of the execution platoon
share each leaf

one loaf of bread
the streets are deserted
the world is gone
for eternity
instead of the heart, I picked up
a church
without walls

Enjoy.
