    Thank you all for joining us for this Spring
    contest. We had a nice response.
    Please keep in mind that I chose the ones that were most original and provided me with something to ponder.
    It's always the preference of the judge which
    does not reflect on the quality of the poems
    submitted.
    You all did a beautiful job.

    Congratulations to the winners and the honorable mentions.
