I write quite often on poetrysoup.com. They have contests, which are fun. I have placed in a few, pretty far down on the list, but my name is getting closer each time!
Today I entered a poem contest titled:
Memorial of a Loved One Poetry Contest
Here is my entry:
Losing my boys
I lost my son and husband
thirteen months apart.
I never thought I’d make it
with such a broken heart.
I miss them both all the time
my memories fall short.
I wish I had them back again
I try to be a sport.
No matter what I say or do
nothing of this can ever change.
My life is now a different one
many things to rearrange.
And so I sit and cry a lot
for two men that I lost.
If God would give me one more chance
I’d pay at any cost.
You have a very inspiring blog. Just wanted to say that and to wish you good luck in the contest!
