Congratulations!! I voted for this poem in the contest without knowing the author because it is so wonderful to remember those times etched in our memories. Thanks for sharing such a beautiful poem without the letter 'A', Kit.

Such a lovely and nostalgic poem! Yes, summer and Christmas are just not as fun as adults than when we were kids. "The wonder world is gone" but we still cherish the memories. Congratulations on the win!!
I guess it was an anonymous contest.

    Thank you for reviewing this. It was an anomymous contest. I seem to do better on those.

This is just perfect! I love your photo that accompanies this charming summer memory. I read it out loud the second time to enjoy your meter. Really well done, and you have my vote today.

Mystery Poet,

Outstanding!

This is a beautifully penned poem; you did an exceptional job writing this poem for this Life Without the Letter A writing prompt.

I tried writing a poem without using the letter A and found it difficult for me; you made it look easy.

Excellent rhyming throughout, a very smooth flow, and a most enjoyable read, Thanks for sharing the very best to you in the contest.

Blessings...Portia

    Thank ;you so much for the review, the great comment and the beautiful stars. I'll tell you how to make it easy. Write a poem without thinking about "A's" Then go back and cross out the words with A and substitute something that means almost the same. It worked for me. I did win so I can sign my name.

    Chrissy, I don't know how you managed to review this poem twice but If FanStory lets it stand it gives me twenty-six which is the magic number to get a best status. Almost as good as winning. LOL Thanks.
