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 @maylenasland with the poem One Day in a Year.

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 @erodedthoughts, Which Pill Did You Take
• From @raj808, A World Inherited from Yesteryear
• From @joseitosanchezs, Manantial
• From @nickydee, Trainwreck

I wanted to share a photo of my spreadsheet tracking the past candidates and winners, just to show you all that I'm trying to balance things and spread the wealth, so to speak. Preference will go to quality poems and also poets who show active engagement not only on their post comments but on other posts as well, but I am attempting to spread it out within the group.

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. Please try to get your votes in before this end time.

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

A Call to Action

Calling all poets, calling all poets. Please vote to make sure this program is a success.
