Wonderful win. I nearly chose night bewitches for my own entry but it wasn't a stand out line.

Thanks Andrea. My Night Bewitches was an N/A. I deleted my N/A poems as I was trying to keep under 100 poems all up. ( which I found was impossible) Not finding a decent opening line, I went to my deleted ones to search. So this was a definite rags to riches story. (straight from the rubbish bin). I really appreciate you taking the time to comment. Best wishes Wen.

Love it! This was an interesting contest as I looked through so many of mine and saw totally weak first lines.

I had forgotten this poem, then reading it I was impressed with myself and remembered the disappointment at it being N\A'd..lol.. Back then I had deleted all poems that got N/A so I could keep under 100 poems.
