I said “We are looking for the most original and humorous poem, and they don’t have to start with “Roses are Red…” just valentine’s day domain name poetry.

This sounds more like a Name.com promo song, not a Valentines Day / Domain Name related poem… sorry but this contest has FAIL written all over it, I guess I didn’t kiss butt enough.

Sorry that you weren’t selected. According to Princeton University, a poem is “a composition written in metrical feet forming rhythmical lines: (http://wordnetweb.princeton.edu/perl/webwn?s=poem).
This submission meets those standards for poetry.

I see where @Tippy is coming from (in regards to the “poem” aspect). However, I would say this contest was anything but a failure.
Great job @Elliot and @namedotcom!

It was a song related to domain names… I am sorry that yours was not selected as the winner.

Good, so we agree, it was a song related to Name.com
Lets leave it at that, as that is the point I was trying to make anyways. Sorry to everyone else who submitted a Valentines/Domain related Poem, we obviously misunderstood the Contest rules, our bad.

A song is a poem by definition. Instead of reciting his poem, the winner sung it.
