Verses of Metaphors

Blog Posted:9/1/2018 12:10:00 PM

This was my 200th contest. I wanted to thank every one of you for all your participation and wonderful poetry these past 3 years. I am always honored to reah such beauty. I was going to pick just 15 winners but all were so amazing all 35 entries placed. This was a very hard one to judge.

PS- is anyone having trouble accessing their soupmail? I have not been able to read any in about 2 months or so. Please let me know I am curious if it is just me. So I apologize if anyone has tried to contact me, I promise I am not ignoring you I just can't read it.

I will comment on all entries soon!

Be blessed and congratulations!

Laura Loo

As to the issue with soup mail (if no one else mentioned it) the link is bad and is coming in as .....aspx.aspx If you delete the duplicate ".aspx" in the address it works. I thankfully have some web design background and noticed the issue. I use mobile (not sure if that matters)

This was so much fun, Luloo - thank you SO much for my placement ... some contests you just dive into more than, and this was a cool but refreshing plunge, indeed! I feel bad for Sandra, as she is SO good and no doubt would have placed high on the list ... I have done the same thing SO many times! Congrats on 200 - wow!! :-) <3

oh no! I am so sorry, I looked at the lost and didn't see your name too. I was wondering why? Then saw you did write a poem, I felt bad, that has happened to me so many times and it's just a silly mistake we sometimes make. Hugs sweet Sandra :)-luloo
