A message from Melissa

Poets,

What a lovely place to linger, here among verse and stanzas. Each of you create such lovely thoughts that once caught upon the tongue leave behind such delicious taste of poetries banquet.

I hope to recline here (lost) amongst your sonnets, odes, free verse, epics and whatever form of poetry passes through this zone. I know I will see more of the person you are, within the lines you pen.

Missy

I am a big reader fan of Rachelle's writing. I enjoy the flow of her words and she has helped me much as a mentor with some of my work. I can only hope that she has enjoyed some of my poems as well. She has read plenty of my work and I have much to thank her for.

Thank you Rachelle. How fresh and beautiful is this place. You are showing us how it can be done. I must learn this! Thank you poets. You are showing us how words can work, how thoughts and feelings can blossom even as we behold them. How glad I am you told me of this place, Dear Rachelle de Bretagne! de Bretagne
