Effort

Effort Eagles leave the home nest, eager to do their best, ease on, passing the test. Energetic race brings ecstasy to your face. Echoes of winning cheers, electrifies your ears. 9/16/16 https://www.howmanysyllables.com 42 Syllables in all 6 per line Pleiades E - Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Kim Merryman

- I think it's a nice thing to do, to congratulate all one by one - in the contest I participate in - As a little "thank you for the match" regards ..... - Some I have read before and others not - It will always take some time, a long list of winners - But for me it is common courtesy and a pleasure to congratulate you Janis - Very well done ! - hugs // Anne-Lise :)
