A Triple Godsend

The late dear Carolyn Devonshire
a poetry souper who did not retire
A contest contestant to her very end
peer poet par excellente,& good friend

Carrie Richards is her pen name
as a prolific winner brought her fame
Introduced me to recitation aloud 
with youtube clips to wow the crowd

Debbie Guzzi a P S 'great'
coming  here in 2008
A learned female Barnabas
challenging me to extend my compass

An entry on Dec 4 to Sotto Poet's latest contest
