Fall

scarlet leaves litter the ground
the branches sway in the breeze
yellow leaves skitter away
chased by the unseen

francine, it's ok now. I sent Soup lots of emails last night and when I came here this morning, i had back my membership area and this time I clicked on your contest and it said I had already entered it. I was thinking I hadn't because someone asked me where my entry for your contest was. Sometimes I forget to enter contests and I had gotten worried!!!

I need to tell you also. I somehow had neglected to enter my poem for your contest, so I went to do it right now. You were up to 33 at this moment. well, I have lost my abilities on Soup. I have no member area to go to, no mail showing and when I try to enter a contest, my poems do not show up. I can't post a new poem either. Please will you reserve me a spot in your contest in case others are able to enter but I cannot? I really hope this problem is taken care of by tomorrow! sent word to soup.
