SOMETHING OLD SOMETHING NEW.......FORGOTTEN CONTEST

Blog Posted by John Lawless: 6/8/2022 5:22:00 AM

 

 

My apologies to all who entered this contest just when the Covid insanity settled on us.  I am remiss in reviewing and posting the contest entries.  I shall leave it to the poets of the Soup to evaluate the changes made to the entries and their impact on the poetic interpretation.

Again, my apologies for taking so long to get to this.
