Dedicated To Constance

. < I've dutifully turned to page~ ~ ~ ~ten> And commented on her posting, "Whispers in The Wind" ****romanticism, Just one of the rules ~ ~ ~ ~ of contest she's hosting. So what is next? **** I've centered And also **** double spaced. "Oops" ~ ~ ~ ~ I held the space bar down too long And now I'm crimson faced. She commands it be ten lines **** or more Not one rule may I miss. So now I think ~~~~ perhaps I'm done. I'll sign it with a kiss. It's new of course****only Constance Could inspire a gem****like this. <.> By: Joyce Johnson For Constance's Follow the rules contest. Tied for no. 1 with everybody

Soup Mail isn't working. I'll try to post the centering technique on Constance's blog. I kept getting an error message trying to put it in here. Love, Carolyn

Joyce, this is Constance's contest, so please correct that in your poem. I'd like to see you win! Also, I'll send you a Soup mail explaining how to center your poem. Yours turned out much better than my entry! Check you Soup Mail in a minute or two. Love, Carolyn
