I wish you the very best with your entry and
sharing your caring true story
In A Poem contest
Glad that crowd of one hundred teenagers cheered, laughed, and chanted at unexpected places, and you rolled with them.

    Yes, Smiley, I am surprised how fast paced this is. It runs under two minutes when I perform it, yet I filled it with action and characterization. Thank you for giving my dong its sixty-first and last review before my promotion expired.

What adorable lyrics for a cute little children's song! Great idea to have this put to music. I'm sure you probably have a tune in mind and I'm sure it's a perfect match for the lyrics! Great job!

Yes, don't leave Bud behind. You went above and beyond with this writing prompt. A gold medal winner in my book. Well done and good luck.

    Yes, teols2016, I performed it before my songwriting teacher tonight and he was impressed how I combined spoken word, poetry, song, and acting. It was the most different "song" performed during songwriting finals, so different that my teacher would not call it a song but a multidimensional performance. I look forward to performing it again and again.

    Thank you for calling this a gold medal winner and for wishing me good luck.

Hi. This was certainly a fun poem to read. We have 4 dogs and a kitty.... so definitely I can relate to your love of your doggy. There is no way we'd leave any of them behind if at all possible. Thanks for sharing this with us and good luck in the contest. Gramalot8

    Oh, thank you, Gramalot8, for your review. I am not even waiting for the February results of this contest, but am taking my song on the road to perform at open mics from San Francisco to Las Vegas and beyond. Thanks for wishing me good luck.

the road is a deserted road,especially if buddy is left behind. the storytelling was fun,entertaining,and of interest to the reader. your poem was special and it was a gift to read it. thanks for the read. "your so vein" means mood or humor.

    Thank you, lulube, for your cheering review. Yes, reviewers of my writing song and audiences of my performed song found this story line quite humorous. California news are filled with reports of happy reunions of dogs and cats reunited with their owners after the evacuations due to the wild fires.

    REunited, now that's a heart warmer. I couldn't imagine being separated from my Mosey. Gut wrenching thoughts.

Hi, Andre;
Thank you for sharing this last assignment for your class with us. You've certainly given us a story within the lines of the poem, and I hope your entry does well.

I was despondent when the dog was left behind,

    Oh, thank you, Patty, for your review and for wishing me well in the contest. I love creating this story and even more performing it. Coworkers and clients got a hoot out of rehearsal before tonight's class.
