  • Final notes:
    I am sorry that it has taken me this long to judge this contest. I would like to thank you for your entries and say that this has been a very successful contest for me. One that's been very hard to judge because there was a good amount of fantastic entries. I wish I could give each of you a trophy, but as you well know it doesn't work that way. I feel the top three gave me heartfelt and unique poems. The Honorable Mentions are in no particular order. Thanks again for you participation in the contest and congratulations to the winners! Have a great day! Love and hugs...
