You can be a favorite even if you don't win a particular contest. Personally you are on my favorite list. You are very talented and it is a pleasure to read your work.

Thanks, Richard. I haven't entered a single contest yet. Can't explain why...maybe I'm just a sensitive soul. Thanks for the encouragement. It comes at a very opportune time. You already know your status on my list. Have a good day!

hmmm, so this is about Harry, huh? It helps to read the comments beneath. This was clever. I don't even think I know you very well, do I? Let me check out a few more poems of yours.

Hello, my friend! To be 100% honest, I did not see this before I wrote my poem! But I am so glad it made you happy - everything I wrote is true. You are an amazing poet!

you are a lovely poet, Eileen, and as usual it is down to opinions, i put poems in to contests think i'll do well , they dont even make the list,, also poems i put in contest that i dont feel are that good, sometimes win,, so again down to opinions....you have nothing to worry about, you make a lot of people here very happy, just like the sunrise, your beam spread out far and wide and touches us all...

Well.......congrats! :) We both made in on Heather's list! Maybe she caught us having our own little pity part and decided to spread the cheer! :) You have amazing talent, my friend! :)
