         Second Place:
                   A wonderful place this can be,
                   Balloons and cake on the marquee:
                   We party around
                   and we won’t gain a pound,
                   For pictures are always fat free!

         Third Place:
                   There once was a site, name of Stories
                   Where writers could show off their glories
                   StoryMaster's the fellow
                   who made the background yellow
                   And came up with the item categories.

                   But you can't say he did it alone
                   Unless StoryMistress wasn't at home
                   Because without all her work
                   We'd think SM a jerk
                   And Stories would be a dusty old tome

                   Together they've made a great place
                   Where writers can meet face to face
                   Well, at least face to screen
                   If you know what I mean
                   Because in person we'd take up more space.

                   But we've got lots of features and toys
                   For good (and bad) girls and boys
                   Where we can write what we please
                   And I think everyone agrees
                   That we should all be making some noise.

                   So Happy Birthday To You
                   Stories.com, SM, and SMs too
                   We wish you more years
                   And dozens more cheers
                   And let's hope the background never changes to blue.
