I am grateful,
It fell to the ground,
A crack formed,
I am saddened,
I loved my necklace.

THE ENVELOPE PLEASE
Fiesta! ¡Olé! It's Cinco de Mayo and time to celebrate the ASK ME IN DECEMBER the unofficial challenge winners. The creators had fun and it was fun reading all their entries. From Ballads to the Blues and a Villanelle to a Haiku, I was honored by the forty-four entries.

Short and sweet, but it makes you think!
Sadly beautiful, great challenge entry. I keep starting these but am then unable to finish
