You did well and your first Sijo poem. Not a form i have tried. It is a warm October for us so far. We were doing a lot of outside yard work this year. We built a roof over the deck we built last year and that has kept us busy this summer. I guess not me but hubby was kept busy. I was the go-for lady. lol love phyl

Thanks a lot for the compliment my dear friend Phyllis and I am so happy & grateful for your stopping by. So glad to hear from you. Mind me,I'm trying to enjoy my vacation with many groups of friends on scheduled appointments in different days, lol. However, back to school tom. The weather is shifting here, cloudy, rainy and sunny and so humid most of the time. TYSM again. Big hugs!

oh now I can see the picture with this one, Leonora. I enjoyed the idea of this one, and how you are feeling bliss from school. gosh, you made me have to go look up the word Wonk. It is so different from what I expected! Congrats on my winners list, sweetie. Your book is in the mail as of Friday and they said about ten days!

Len Gasun
Date: 10/13/2014 1:56:00 AM

:) Yes, I will be feeling bliss this Oct. from school as soon as my term/sem-break begins next week my very dear friend. The word wonk has 3 meanings but I used the other one. I already wrote the meaning above just below my poem. Oh, thank you so much my win again & in advance for your book. So excited! Biggest hugs!
