Also, just FYI, I think I will skip reviewing the poetry submissions because I don't feel I can make any meaningful or constructive comments.  Hopefully there are others who can pick up the slack.  If they were written as epic poetry (in the style of Homer, Vergil, and Ovid - dare I say), I maybe could make some remarks, but otherwise I would be up a river without a paddle. :D

Also, any hints on what the next contest's theme will be? :sun

Edit: If I wrote some Latin Dactylic Hexameters for the next contest, can that mean I automatically win. :D
