Wonderfully said Eve. I agree with Jan though, it is sad but when we put our work out like this anyone can walk away with our words. Best wishes in the contest.

Well said Eve, sadly you can't control the actions of others and they will steal work without any thought for the original poet:-( hugs jan xx
