Jenna Logan November 13, 2021 at 10:45 AM Although your lines are well written, you didn't follow the rules about the number of lines allowed. Robert James Liguori November 15, 2021 at 4:45 PM I asked PoetrySoup to go in and remove me as the winner. Robert James Liguori November 13, 2021 at 2:53 PM Hi Jenna. You are correct, I mistakenly went over the line count as defined by the rules for this contest.
