IT always feels great to place when the contest is judged without knowing the authors...blindly. Thank you so much for honoring me with a 2nd place win. I am totally delighted!

You had me until you said "Cool Whip". That's not allowed in the house of my farmer father's daughter. It has to be real whipped cream. Never the less a very cute and catchy poem. Best of luck. Love, Joyce
