    Thank you all for the awesome poems. Each of you did incredible. I am sorry that I don't have time to comment right now. I've got to get back and start working again but later I'll comment soon as work slows down for me.

    Oh, and a couple of you didn't win anything just because you forgot to put the prompt in your author notes. Following rules is important to me.

    You all have a great Wed and thanks again for entering. Congrats to the winners.
