I am humbled to have been named as an honorable mention in the contest, alongside Joni Caggiano, Cindy Georgakas, Karima Hoisan, and Carrie Yang. I admire all of these talented poets, and am, again, honored to be named among them. A BIG thank you to Gabriela Marie Milton for creating and hosting this lovely contest.
Here is the beginning of the poem I entered into the contest.

youโฆ meโฆ.
I would be honored if you would visit Gabrielaโs site, Short Prose, and read the rest of my poem, and the poems of the other honorable mentions. Thank you!
