From Babe To Babe

.                                               Babe
                                          Young, innocent

Sorry I missed this earlier. Congratulations on your win in Nathan's contest. You used this challenging form in a creative way. Regarding your question about SOS, it's the latest Soup challenge--kind of a tagging type poem. Keep on writing! Karen
