It's that time again. Time for the Poet of the week!

If you don't remember what this is, it's our new weekly post sponsored by LeoFinance to recognize one of the top posts in this community every week: a top post that all of you vote for. Read more details.

Last Week's Winner

Last week's winner was Hive account@miguelmederico with the poem Excava Paces | Excavate Paces.

Congratulations!! As a reward, you will receive 60% of the earnings of this post when it pays out in a week.

This Week's Candidates

Now let's look at the four candidates for this week's Poet of the Week. These four have been chosen by myself and some of the other mods in this group. Our choices are based not only on quality of poem, but also on engagement in the comments.

And the four selected posts are

• From Hive account@floruth, Live without air
• From Hive account@warpedpoetic, Suddenly, the pull towards adulthood
• From Hive account@trucklife-family, (Our Sisters) The Witches
• From Hive account@esther-emmanuel, Roaming the Realms of Fantasy

Head to the poll of Threads → Here

After you vote, it may take a few seconds to update. Wait about 30 seconds and then reload the page. You will know your vote was accepted if you can see the current poll results.

The poll closes at Sunday at midnight PST, which is Monday 07:00 UTC.

(I know I know, time zones are confusing. Check the exact time in your local time)

Rewards

The winner of the poll will receive 60% of next week's Poet of the Week post.

20% will also be sent to Hive account@weeklytops where it will be used to fund LeoFinance's promotion campaign on Twitter. The final 20% will go to Hive account@dbooster for funding rewards given to this group on other posts.
