Greetings, Poets!
Glad to see each of you here this week. Hope you each had a poetic week & also will share one of your poems here. It is always fun to get to know you through your poetry; and I hope you feel the same.
This week's photos came from my area - Southeastern Wisconsin - where I was a 'tourist' as I showed the area to a visiting European friend.
I will issue an invitation here to those of you who participate in Poetry Pantry. If YOU have special photos that you would like me to feature some week, let me know what kind of photos you have. I am especially interested in scenic views of your area or an area you have visited. Send inquiries first to dixibear@aol.com.
Anyway, with no further adieu, this is one of my favorite spaces to post poetry each week. I hope you look forward to it too. An older one or a new one, it's your choice.
Link your ONE poem. Then leave a comment below. Then visit other poets. And I will too. (If I miss your poem, visit me, and I will visit you... I am like anyone else, appreciating reciprocity.) We ALL like comments, so if you link please DO spend time visiting others. That is part of the fun as well. We really like it if you link back to Poets United too, so we spread the Poetry Pantry word in the blogosphere.
Come back a few times on Sunday and Monday to see what's new. Visit some strangers, and they will become new friends! Making new friends and reading new poetry, what more could one want?
Also, don't forget to visit Poets United other days of the week. For example, every Wednesday Kim posts a new "Verse First" prompt. Hope you will join us there as well! Sherry Blue Sky does a feature (it varies) on Monday, and Rosemary Nissen-Wade does "I Wish I'd Written This" every Friday!
If you are on Facebook, look for us there as well. Join our site. It is one more way to stay in touch!
And now...here is the procedure, for those who are new here: Each Sunday we start a new post with a New Mr. Linky for you. This is so that you can post a link to a poem in your blog. The link will close Monday at 12:00 p.m. (CDT), but you can still visit the links of those who have posted them.
Enjoy!

Great photos, so bright I'm almost caught in the glare, glad to see everyone again.
ReplyDeleteGood morning poets. Happy Sunday!
ReplyDeleteWisconsin! It's tame! I expected wilderness (grin).
ReplyDeleteTo Kelvin: I drink that tea, yes:
" Stares and curiosity between antique cobwebs
And empty spider shell,
The scent of second hand writer's sweat ..."
Ha ha, Susan. We do have SOME wilderness & some urban...a lot of variety here. Smiles.
Deletegood morning....very nice views in those pics....smiles.
ReplyDeletei will be around...
I did want to share something per tradition (for me) ... yet I fear this isn't all that much good and may very well be a plea to myself for something to loosen and finally free my poor novel and bring my little Kaitlin character so long wating to life rather than sitting about as she has been, hovering over this finished but rather awful novel, as Pinocchio was a wooden boy - waiting and waiting for some Infinite Hit to jolt all awake. Happy Sunday to all ...
ReplyDeleteThe photographs which I almost missed through half closed eyes are entrancing -
ReplyDeleteThank you !
Good morning, Poets!! Great to see so many here already today!
