Michael and Kenneth
Thanks to both of you. Kenneth,you withdrew your poem so that mine may go.Please send your poem in December.
Michael
I have to tell you this. A 'vanguard' from this group, helped me to edit this poem,guiding me to each ',' and ' ;'. I worked on it patiently for two months and I am glad it is rightfully rewarded.

Thank you two once again.
Siva

A fabulous poem, Siva...imho your poem should have placed first...but it doesn't matter...the honor of being recognized for your work is what matters. Congrats again!

Thank you Bob. I worked privately with a poet for this.But to think I worked for two months,weighing each comma and reading loud and monitoring each line break, this was a new experience for me. My poet/mentor was very patient,and she made me take all the decisions. Thanks to the support of this group and all the poets here.
Siva
