Congratulations to everyone who is a winner! I'm sure the judging was not easy but I must say that those who were selected, deserve the accolades. Blessings, Effie

I think I put my poem in the wrong place. How do I get it into the right spot?

Sage

As the wild sage
Marched into the blazing sand
Jumping past blue striped lizards,
the Jewels of the desert,
Contained only by the kindling chunk,
the Sage, running through an absurdly chilly moonlight
on the desert floor,
Waiting for the call of the child,
Generous by nature,
even in the
bleakest, desert waste,
working towards its natural goal
Engendered, Imprinted in its
Soul
spawned by an egg
a cell
in which the words are written
Divide and Multiply!

That is fantastic!! It sounds like you are doing your part in making this world a better place. I've got a question for you, where is the 29 Gifts Calendar found? I think that would be a better way for me to journal. God Bless!
