  • Final notes:
    You poets gave me a very hard challenge. The top four poems in my opinion, were the very best. Wish I could have given 2 golds, 2 silvers, and 2 bronzes. Thank you all for torturing me with my final decision. Hope to see you all again real soon. Will be posting my next contest, shortly!
