Hi Jingle, sorry I didnt realise I hadnt nominated anyone last week, i get too confused easily!!!
although is depressing I would like to enter Journeys End into this weeks rally
http://petemarshall1.wordpress.com/2010/05/16/journeys-end/
its part of the My Struggle with Unemployment series & its an article that I would very much like people to read because this is an emotion that hits so many of us at some time during the period.
I was at the unemployment offices yesterday talking about this and the clerk I was chatting to was saying she sees so many people hit this period when all seems lost!!!
Anyway I digress, count me in with this entry.
cheers
Pete
hi jingle , still confused re nominations, what are you waiting for as i thought week 18 was finished?
cheers
Pete

you are on track!
many thanks!
๐
tq jingle, do not know much about this nominating a poet thingy which i believe the honor goes to the previous weeks nominees/winners- am i correct? anyway, i wrote down the name of the poet of my choice in my post just in case… well, I have done my rounds! ^o^
p.s. was also looking for your week 19 beautiful logo to paste on my poem- is there any? (wink!)
yes, no need to worry about nomination.
only the perfect poet winners do it.

http://mairmusic.wordpress.com/
Jingle, my entry is at http://taramillerwrites.wordpress.com/2010/05/20/lost-love/ . Can’t wait to check out the other poems this week!
Well my wonderful friend, I have visit many bloggers today as my husband and grandkids took their naps. I lost count but am sure I went over the amount you asked for. Had fun visiting those who I have wanted to visit but didn’t have time to spare, and those who I haven’t visit in awhile. But everyone I am sure understands I have to take care of my husband until he is back on his feet doing for himself. Well this is all I have time for today. God bless. Please send me a link to the two poems you said for me to pick up, they were at the bottom you said.
Love Vi
HI Ji! I have my post up for the rally and when I get off from work tonight I will do my 12 and then some! Have a fantastic day loves!

Miss A. Fox (Alexvonfox)
I have done my themed thurday poem and I believe I have done the 12 poets with comments. Please let me know if I missed anyone.
Hi Jingle – do I need to write a brand-new poem right now to be part of this week’s rally, or will my recent A couple of Villanelles be OK? So then I have to visit 12 new poetry blogs (on the list above) and comment? That would be a pleasure, I enjoy reading others’ work. Please let me know if this is correct
thanks
