..when rules were overlooked and we were robbed. LMAO!!! This is a great piece you have posted here. It is a solid sonnet and it is just funny and well written. A lament to say the least. LOL! This was excellent, poet. Go promote this and get it out there. It needs to be read. Good luck in the vote. Lynda

    Lol. I couldn't help myself. Sometimes you just have to poetically rant when injustice is slapping you in the face. Haha. Thank you so much for the great review, Lynda. I really appreciate the gracious sixer. I'm glad you caught the humor in it. It seems that some people aren't. Have a wonderful day. Thank you again.

I love your lament on lost fees when you lose a contest through not adhering to the rules! We've all done it and feel robbed, but in the end it is our own fault for not understanding what we are entering into. Your sonnet is well written and my love of sonnets has to award you with my last six of the week because this is so well executed, loved the sentiments and the couplet sums up the poem perfectly! Great work! Love Dolly x

    Wow, thank you so much for the fantastic review and the giant sixer, Dolly. It actually wasn't about me losing money because 'I' didn't adhere to the rules. It's about losing money because a piece worked its way through the committee's policing and ended up winning a contest when they didn't adhere to the rules. Lol. I dearly appreciate your last six, Dolly. I love sonnets as well. I'm glad you liked the piece. Thank you again. Have a wonderful day.
