First things should
always come first; therefore I'd like to
first
share the valentine poem I've written for my
precious Savior,
Jesus Christ: Be Mine
and also, the
poem written this year for my wonderful
husband,
David . . . he's a true gift from God. . .
and. . .He's
Mine!

Realms of This Thing We Call
LOVE!
********************************
Thank
you to everyone who entered poems for this contest.
I received
well over 500 poems ! That is quite more than last
year
! Choosing only ten of over 500
was a difficult task.
These
ten poems were the very best in
my opinion, though
there
were many, many very good entries. I would ask of all
who
entered to please be gracious in accepting
my final decision.
Thank
you, Anne Bryant-Hamon -

VALENTINE'S DAY BONUS POEM:
A Healing
Time - by Judy Labriola
*If Judy were not a friend, this poem would have
been selected as one of the top ten,
but I could not choose it, lest it appear I was
showing bias for friends' poetry.
