Nope, not for this one at least. Two completely seperate couplets, together should comprise four lines (seperate two lines).

I love it! How about...

Oh sugar. I meant to do this but completely forgot! I'll see if I can get something down before it closes, or the distraction demons get me again.

Wow, I have warm fuzzies. I've never won a contest before, so this is a surprise.

I glanced at the Oct. contest and read the other entries. I think they're all well written, and I am honored to have been selected as the winner.

Thanks,
>alleycat13
