Having read all the winning poems, I'm stunned by the pain some people had to endure during childhood, Lay. I think you did a great job judging and congratulate all the winners. Thanks for my placement as well. Love, Carolyn

Thank you so much, Walayee for selecting my poem, This Is Love, for second place in your amazing contest. I am proud and happy to share that spot with others. This same poem was not even given an HM in another contest so this placement means very much to me, and makes the honor even better. It is a story of a child's darkness and about the person who brought this child, me, into the light~~
