Collaborature’s June Contest Winning Poem

lady in purple (at 5:10 AM)

I definitely DID NOT expect this, but I am honored and humbled by the fact that my submission of lady in purple (at 05:10 AM) is the winning poem for June. Many thanks to Melissa Lemay and the judge, Lesley Scoble as well. I am including the audio for the poem in this post, and I will also share a snippet of the poem with you here.

Peace and blessings.

Work & Play

We’re in the middle of a pumpkin contest at work. Each department had to come up with their own decorative pumpkin. This is a photo of the two that were completed on Thursday, September 27, 2018. The others were completed on Friday. I forgot to snap a pic of them.

who will have the best pumpkin?
we toil over an inanimate object
claiming it will win top prize
