Welcome newest members
to our passionate family.
In this site you’ll learn of prose,
free verse and rhyming poetry.

We welcome you with open arms
and read with open hearts.
Cause just like in a family
each person plays a part.

The joys and hurts we write about
sometimes are quite the same.
Some poems have similarities
different places, different names.

We’ll try to be constructive
with our comments and replies.
Don’t want to damage ego’s
or discourage future tries.

Take your time and look around
and you will start to see.
There are many different branches
to this poet family tree.

There are love poems, sad poems,
and friendship poems too.
Greeting cards and forums
with instructions what to do.

This site has been created
by the most wonderful of men.
Ron, accomplished poet…
he’s our mentor and our friend.

You’ll see if you just look around
the Moderators too.
They comment and encourage
and they write great poems too.

So if you’d like to stick around
we’d be glad to see you stay.

Lucie....and the sad thing is....I've been so doped up lately, I can't even find my own nuts!!!!!! Of course, then-again....they never were the size of coconuts anyhow...LOL
I remember one time I worked in an office full of women, went to get some insurance forms for my "then" wife, as she wanted to get her tubes tied......Some of the ladies, (who always teased me for some reason anyhow), said, "Well, why don't you go get "yours" tied?"....I told them, "Do you know how hard it is to tie a knot in a little string?"....

Ha ha, lovely! You should try to get your poems published. I don't comment much, but I have to say some names I look out for.
