cute poem, Debra.
please tell me WHERE did you find the link for this contest and the prompts. I didn't get in in the beginning either and I need some guidance. Helen has helped but because I didn't link my first poem with the contest, I'm just adding to my book from my last post.
many,many thanks!!!
Katharine

This is so well rhymed and the melody carried this heavy elephant across the sky with ease of motion and your crazy thoughts here had some credence, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

Aw, Debta, this is precious, and so creative to use a book cover. I was just wondering where you were, possibly floating in fashionably late. I was right! Beautifully written and illustrated for your book of poetry.
Blessings,
Sal XOs

Fun interpretation of the book cover. I might take a look at the prompts and see if I can use one or two.

A different take on pink elephants. I wonder if anyone has seen blue elephants after too many libations. Of course not.

Great job Debra, and good to see you. :))

Loved your whimsical poem which is perfect for a piece entitled "Out of the Blue". It was clearly not "pink elephants" so I'm sure you didn't have too much too drink! Lol.
Hope you are well celebrated on your birthday!!
