March Contest Winner

Please join me in congratulating Miserably Happy for being the March Contest winner with his poem GOD BLESS MR. ROSEWATER. See poem below :

I met a guy in college who stole a bilge pump from
Kurt Vonnegut.
He and his friends pulled the young men’s prank.
I loved the story because I love Kurt’s writing.
It was so exciting to absorb the irreverent tales
of the characters that filled his books.
My forming mind appreciated the path
That was rejected as odd
that Mr. Rosewater
walked in his own stride.
I concluded that,
with the help of this book,
there is more than one way to
survive here.
I arrived here
because I took the exit
that said
God Bless You Mr. Rosewater.
