The Poetry Pantry
2nd Chance Poems or 1st time shares
Do you have a poem you would like to share? Something that you just felt inspired to write and want others to read. Perhaps it’s a poem that didn’t get as much exposure on your blog as you would have liked. Maybe it’s a poem that you wrote a long time ago that you would like people to revisit. That’s what this section of Poets United is for.
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 8:00 p.m. (CDT), but you can still visit the links of those who have posted them.
1. Don’t link to more than 1 poem per week. If you link more than one, anything after #1 will be removed.
2. Please visit several other poems linked here when you link to yours. Please
don't just link and run, waiting for others to visit you.

3. Leave a comment after you have posted
your link. I find that people who leave comments tend to be more participatory. They wish to be part of the community. A little of this goes a long way. It feels good for all.

ReplyDeleteI had no intention on posting and then this poem showed up... isn't poetry such a wonderful thing?
ReplyDeleteYes, it is, Serena! You wrote quite a poem!
DeleteThanks so much. Here's my Lusty Limerick.
ReplyDeleteA strange one from me today...
ReplyDeleteMy first post here...hope I am able to find a cliche for myself here. Thanks...
ReplyDeleteWe hope you'll find much more than just a cliche!
DeleteWelcome, Panchali. Hope you enjoy what you find.
DeleteI sincerely hope so....@ Magical Mystical Teacher and Mary! Thanks for your love..
DeleteGreat to be here again.
ReplyDeleteNice to see everyone today. I will be making my rounds to see what everyone has shared! Beautiful sunny day here. Hope the same is true where you are.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mary..you are here, there, everywhere :) Such a busy bee ;)
ReplyDeleteHave a great Sunday everyone
LOL, Bren! Today is a busy day....it will slow down tomorrow. Smiles.
DeleteWell, I have visited everyone who has posted. Hope others will visit as THEY post. Share the happiness.
ReplyDeleteAnything Goes, you have a closed blog for invited readers only. No way to comment on your blog nor to get in touch with you. Hope you check back here.
Wow... I was blown away by Panchali's post but cannot leave a comment as the comment box does not open large enough after OpenID... I need the name/URL prompt to show. Great poem, very powerful. The ending surprised me. I would love to leave you comments!
ReplyDeleteTrochaic octameter for this week.
ReplyDeleteGreetings, all.
Kids, I am away and struggling to use my daughter's laptop....she says "you need constant supervision", hee hee.......I will read and comment as I am able while I'm away and will catch up to whoever I miss when I get home. So far this morning the reading has been superb!!
ReplyDeleteAhhh... another site I can't leave a comment on... I feel so incomplete. Gemma, I loved the message you left right above the comment box. The photos and poem were beautiful. I especially got a kick out of the bird also called the laughing jackass!
ReplyDeleteAnything Goes, glad that you have opened your blog open to comment! I was able to comment this time.
ReplyDeleteIf I haven't commented on your blog, and you would wish me to, if you comment on mine I will make a visit to you. There are some people who have linked who never return visits. Some have appeared again. As they do.... Week after week. I have decided just to pass on these blogs, as my theory is if you post links you should be willing to make visits as well. Just saying! (And I greatly appreciate those of you who DO make visits to me and others. You know who you are!! Thank you.)
ReplyDeleteMary,
DeleteI will not be posting a poem at The Pantry for a few weeks.
I am going on holiday and cannot make the commitment to reciprocate with comments and visit Blogs.
I agree that there are still people who continue to post poems, but who NEVER respond.That is selfish and not in the spirit of Poets United.
Thank you Mary for keeping The Pantry, 'open for business.'
Eileen :)
You will be missed Eileen!
DeleteA down beat poem today. Called, in typical minimalist style "slightly sad". Not a very good poem, to be sure. But I posted it because I feel like it conveys a little of a vague feeling that many have experienced. Love and peace.
