This was great, JOe (but one little hint, I think she said free verse, not rhyme) I really enjoyed this. Luv, Andrea

:) You had me laughing big time, Joe! Wonderfully witty approach to a contest that allows us to use only 29 words -- the poems seem to be over before they start. You made a great point and I think Nikko will love this. Love, Carolyn
