Was the carriage in a dream? Youth flies away so fast. I remember when I thought the year 2000 was so far away. I hope you are well and best of luck in the contest! Peace &Love Matthew Anishsb9

Ha ha! Cute one!

Good ride, Andrea. So interesting to see all the different ways the theme is interpreted.

so lovely Andrea gl in contest hugs

It's sad then it's happy and sad, and I LIKE PUMPKINS!~ that's my in-ex-SpUrt opinion! This short shot of magic is good San AndreaS; I took a day off the Soup yesterday to regroup from the poop and now im rhyming like a StooP-Ed Dupe on a Loop. Howdy and Bye! ~ Peace and chicken GreaseYo!~7rAted.not XraTed!:)-hey, ya' never really notice just how many times they use the same damn CAPTCHA letters until you stay on here commenting as much as you do...I KNOW YOU ARE LAUGHING CUS U KNOW WHAT I MEAN!

Youth is a state of mind, where we are forever young. Wonderful.

Each one of these entries....so completely unique..that is what I love about the various themes...how each visualizes! Good one!

Is this about Cinderella? I have no idea what form this is though, but you sure gave it an interesting take! I really liked the message in the second stanza... btw, i checked out the song, thanks-- but I have no idea on how to write lyrics for that-- very nice melody though! And I think I saw the same video as you did, with the beaches, which interestingly enough were in Negros Occidental, one of the provinces here...

Love it. Make yourself a delicious pumkin pie. Love, daver

Oh what a joy to read,, this is so good

Wonderful write Andrea! very witty indeed! gl in contest!

I love seeing your poetry blossom and mature each time I come back to it. That last line lingers, and really gives me, personally, a sense of urgency.
