Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

Why I Should Win 1st Place

Straight from the heart I sling 'em
Right from the gut, I bring 'em
   Why fiddle with metaphor or meter
   I actually stir the heart of the reader

Bobby May March 5, 2019 at 9:47 AM It's about time you won something Gershon, lol Congratulations on your 1st Place win! Gershon Wolf March 5, 2019 at 8:58 PM You're so right, Bobby... Now about that $350 you've requested (ha, ha): Do you take monopoly money? ~ gw

Tom Cunningham March 5, 2019 at 7:19 AM You won for free, I'm gutted I had to send him $400.00 lol. Gershon Wolf March 5, 2019 at 8:54 PM Tom, think of that $400 as a down payment for when Bobby pays you the going rate for your next contest. LOL. ~ Gershon
