Peace

There comes a day, at summer's full
Just for me
I had only imagined such things
Were reserved for the saints
The flowers blow in the wind
As the solstice has passed
Making the world new
Not a word can be heard
The joy rises in my soul

that is because that is the flavor of the month. It is all over the news and people think that they are doing something by talking about it. No matter what is really happening or not.

But all og a sudden Ukraine is a part of situation that really shouldn't pertains to us, people havr lost their minds. Honestly if no one talked about it, it would have been over by now because it is nothing but politics and criminals. I think for thise who talk about it and think they are doing something, it's all virtue signaling and really is of no help.

I completely understand your frustration. Everything serms to have changed with regards to what is voted for since I was wnning these contests as a young teenager. It is the same across the board on other sites as well. The way people view wotks of writing and think has become somewhat bankrupt over the years. After winning different contests over the years and now I struggle to even get recognized is frustrating. Just keep plugging away and check out other contests as well. Don't give up. One day you will make it further.
