My grandfather's (man with white shirt) blacksmith shop - early 1900's |
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.
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!
Looking forward to reading what everyone shares.....later....as it is the middle of the night here. Smiles.
ReplyDeleteSo glad to have found this place to find so many great poets
ReplyDeletemy grandfather (and now my uncle) was a blacksmith as well :)
ReplyDeletea nice poetic end of the weekend to everyone!
Well, currently I am working on my first book and so this time around instead of my blog link I am leaving a fb page link for all you fabulous poets...Happy Sunday everyone!
ReplyDeletenice short piece..interesting between freedom and submission...good luck on your book...i dont FB, so....
DeleteThanks Brain, I would say good for you; one addiction less...;)
DeleteEnjoyed your piece really, but I don't mix FB with blogging; so I won't be commenting there. I thought I remembered you having a blog in the past?
DeleteYes, that would be http://manimantraa.blogspot.in/... at first I thought of posting it on my blog but then I decided to leave the fb link instead...thank you Mary. :)

ReplyDeleteI love your photo, Mary! I am posting a prayer song from this week that I'd like to keep at the pantry.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Susan. I love the photo too, thus couldn't help finding a reason to share it!!

I offer a poem posted recently. I think many can relate to it. Peace.
ReplyDeleteMary, what an INCREDIBLE photo! Astounding how much things have changed since then. I would have loved to have lived then - and maybe I did! It is still morning here, but it looks like many of you must be in afternoon already, I am , as always, way behind. But I will get around to you this morning while I have my coffee. Yippee!
ReplyDeleteBusy week up ahead. I will read all your poems when I get time, I am sorry if I am not able to comment.
ReplyDeleteIt's a busy day for me, but I will continue reading over the next few days.
ReplyDeleteI swear, this is the friendliest place in the world each Sunday morning! Mary, I love the photo of your grandfather - what a treat.
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday, and thanks!

looking forward to reading you all - internet's been cutting in & out all morning, but i will visit as i can
ReplyDeletehope you all have a good week
Ha ha, as two people here have already commented on a piece I wrote and posted yesterday (thank you Mary and Lisa!), I have now hastily linked it. Love to all, see you at your blogs.
ReplyDeleteThen I went and added some of the photos I took - only to find that people had already been quick to comment, describing my verses as photos in words! Should I have left it as words only? But now that the pctures are there, I'll leave them. :)
DeleteWhat a totally cool photo & so glad I landed on this site of awesome poets!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to reading everyone's submissions this week!
ReplyDeleteMy first post to Poetry United - looking forward to getting acquainted. ~ M
