I am a Leo ;)
Written August 7, 2023
For Contest, “Welcome August”
Sponsor, Andrea Dietrich

August! Most days uphold the Leo Sign- Urge those then born- to follow Lion's line. Grand confidence and steadfastness are prone- Unless the sting of arrogance is shown- Sensed not accepting critics and their slights; The August Lions share mixed-bag delights.
