Here is today's clue - you might have to trawl through HubPages a bit to figure it out:

4th tag down on a Hub that described New York in 1888 and started an unusual spate of Hubs on frosted fowl.

Don't give up throwing in your guess until the correct guess and winner are announced below here by us.

Congratulations to MC7 who solved this clue first. Today's topic is POETRY. (Here is a link to Iðunn's Hub called frozen sparrow haiku)

You have until noon tomorrow (Sunday, Pacific Time) to publish up to 10 high-quality Hubs, each worth 1 point, that must:

  • be on the topic of poetry, either on the topic itself, or originally-authored poems (here are just some examples "Renga, Haiku and Senryu - Japanese Poetry", "Poems for a girl you have a crush on", "Beat Poetry", "The Poems of Omar Khayyam", etc.)
  • include the tag poetry
  • have at least 300 words (no credit for 299 so you might as well overshoot)
  • be unique and significantly different from any other Hub or Web page. To be clear, more than just a very few, very short excerpts of already-published poems will render the Hub ineligible; the majority of the Hub must be unique.

Of course, it must comply with our Terms of Use (not overly promotional, adult, etc.) Keep in mind that in judging, we're looking for Hubs that are informative, interesting, engaging and unique.

As always, we look forward to seeing the entries!

Also, look later in the day for the updated tally of points on the HubLove Contest page.

I double and triple checked to make sure "not displayed" was checked, but publishing it for some reason ignored that. We have a few bugs here and there. :)
