Honorable Mentions

A contest note- an honorable mention It's nice to see...it received attention Third or second or even last place Remember- writing poetry...is not a race Writing words from within your heart To me, will always...top the chart No matter what a judge might judge It's not a race...don't hold a grudge I've judged myself- so hard to do I'll always, ever...appreciate you It's just my mood, perhaps, that night I don't always get it right Right? ...right! So, go ahead and write Don't think your poetry does not belong Perhaps, a judge just judged it wrong

Hi Charlie, I don't know if I have asked you before, who would you recommend to me to publish a poetry book. I actually almost finished preparing it last year by about November and then we sold our house and moved into a smaller one, so things were a little hectic. I was told to approach Amazon as publishers, do you think that we be a good move? Hugs, Jennifer.
