What was I thinking contest finalized

Blog Posted by John Lawless: 9/27/2023 5:15:00 AM

After reading all these I asked myself....."what was I thinking". I posted all entries as I may "judge" or "evaluate" your poetry in a contest I have no intention of doing likewise to your thoughts. Thanks to all who entered for this little peek into the poetic mind.

John, you of all poets here are one of those I respect for not being judgmental. And I’m sure you know I’m not using a contest as a reference.
