And His Name Was---

Mr. It, epitome of cool, Arrogantly strutted through the school. Ogling females struggled not to drool. One by one, for him they played the fool. Mr. User was aloof and cruel. Some resisted, much to his surprise. I was one. Though tempted, I was wise, never rendering those dreamy sighs. Yet, I won’t forget those big brown eyes or his name . . . his name--My, how time flies! FICTIONAL Date: September 13, 2019 Contest Title: I'll Never Forget What's His Name (or Her name) Contest Sponsor: John Lawless February 1, 2021 entered in the All Yours (Feb 1) Contest Sponsor: Brian Strand
