I was very shocked.. but its true.. there was a contest at
www.poetry.com that I entered just for fun.. I never really thought of myself as a good poet.. and now they are going to publish my poem along with 199 others in the book "Best of Poetry and Poets of 2003" this year.
You can read my poem
Here. Its "A simple Rose" .. by Ben R Harlow.
Just thought I would share.. it is kind of neat.
