Greetings!

  1. Thank you jingle for including me, but sweetie, I have to bow out as far as reading new poets for right now. Taking care of my husband and grandkids is taking most of my day, with only enough time to keep up with all the bloggers that I am commenting for now. Sorry my friend, but you know if time permits me then I will visit new poets as I can.

  2. Greetings Jingle, I have returned from my venture, renewed with many new poems to share :D. anyway, i would like to get back into the swing of things if you dont mind me coming back from my, unintentional absences. I hope all is well with you and the group, i look forward to becoming part of everything again. 😀

  3. mines up, but then you already know that.
    I’m just letting you know here. lol.
    .
    I think i usually get to over twenty anyway.
    I’ve been lucky as in having days off on wednesday.
    But that luck cant last forever.
    So if i ever dont get 18, its because my job wont let me. lol

  4. all done jingle- combed everyone elses but there are those whom i really do not know how to post comments on like shakiras for instance..

  5. I’m reading as I type Jingle, taking my night out to see if I can comment on 18 new faces.

    I’m posted and here http://wp.me/pR8wn-3q

    Thanks as always for your patience. I’ve been under tremendous strain, but I do love contributing to your poets rallyxx

      1. You’re very kind, thank you!

        I have one question. May we submit poems that were posted at an earlier date, not necessarily created the week of the new rally? Just curious b/c I have a couple that were posted before I found this site :3

      1. I have visited and commented, but I goofed on the link, so I’ll try again now. Thank you, Jinglehttp://heartspell.wordpress.com/2010/06/09/felt/

  6. Jingle, I will post in just a bit. I will work on commenting on 18 blogs it might take me all day…my laptop hard drive is shot and I’m having to work from a couple of shared desktops in the house…but I will get to them!

  7. Hi Jingle Here is my post. Thanks again, I am catching on. I only put a little Haiku with the nomination but I have several new posts. This is a lot of fun and inspirational. I still have some reading left to do but I will be up late and I will be home all day tommorow so that will be great. Thanks so much,

    alan

  8. Hi Jingle. Thanks for inviting me. Unfortunately I won’t be able to participate this time. I will, however, read some new poets over the weekend. Hopefully, I’ll be able to work on some new writing and participate in coming weeks. Work is very time consuming right now.

    Please feel free to remove my name from the list until I can fully participate. Thanks once again, my friend!

  9. I can’t believe I’m on the fresh poets list! Thank you so much! How did you find out about me?

      1. That’s cool. What stood out about my work to you? Anyway, I am now following you and I added your page to my blogroll!

        1. I look and feel like it is a good one, then I save the link…over one week, I collect all those and share with fellow poets…
          welcome to be a participant,

          simply give me a link to a poem,
          comment for 18 participants under my list,
          then you are done…
          let me know..

          😉

  10. Thank you so much for including my blog 🙂
    I’m off to start visiting the other poets now, although I see quite a few in your list that I already read daily.
    I will post a link soon.

  11. Hello All,

    Jingle was kind enough to select me as a “Perfect Poet” for Week 21 of the Thursday Poets’ Rally, and for that I humbly thank her.

    Here is something I created in response to a Challenge at the Undead Poets Society site:

    In woodland vale and faerie glen

    I.
    In woodland vale and faerie glen,
    With hornèd brow, and manner keen,
    Great Cernunnos, beheld I then,
    With Nymphs and Dryads was he seen.

    II.
    His manner fey, his glance serene,
    ‘mongst revelers held in his sway,
    ‘midst shadows which remain unseen,
    With graceful steps he made his way.

    III.
    The dance began at eventime,
    Such skillful, flowing movement,
    Of silken limbs with grace sublime,
    How couldst there be improvement?

    IV.
    The wind was tossed, the leaves all blown,
    Thus caught, I was enamourèd,
    At cock’s crow, all but I had flown,
    Ill-used and faerie glamourèd.

    V.
    So traveler, ‘ware! Stray not this way,
    Lest cares and woe befall you then,
    Hard trudge, your path, ‘til break of day,
    Lest to my fate you be sore ta’en.

    I would encourage all Poets (Undead or otherwise) and lovers of poetry, to visit the Thursday Poets’ Rally. There is some good stuff out there!
    As part of my responsibility as a “Perfect Poet” I would like to nominate Shakira as a Perfect Poet for Week 22.

    Rhyme on!

    Tim Keeton
    (Undead)Poet / Wizard / Teller-of-tales

  12. Jingle. I did comment on at least 12 last week. I would like to attend this week’s. I am still working on one poem. I will post either today or tomorrow! Thanks for all you do!

  13. All done! Another great bunch. So many great names out there. We are told never judge a book by its cover, but we are attracted to words. Pleased to know that their content is as worthy as their covers!

    Thank you, The Only Cin, Fritzgerald, Natalie, Vadimission, Robot Cupcake, Harshikaram, Sleep Until Morning, Shining Void, The Poetry of the Mind, Peacemakers, Flyfarfrom, HartPoet, Manisha, Gaurav, Curtis Bell, and all of you who take the time to fill our hearts with words from your hearts.

    Until next week!
    Almond Joycie

  14. I did 18 new to me (9 from the fresh list, 9 from the other participants’ list) and a bunch of others (lost track) that I’ve read before.

    1. you can still do week 22 Rally, which ends next week on Wednesday…
      I will place your link in week 22,
      you must comment for 18 poets who are listed under participants under this post…

      I will check on everyone’s comment to confirm..
      be serious,
      go ahead and visit and comment…
      i will get back to you with week 22 poetry awards by Sunday.
      😉

  15. Hi Jingle– I have finished reading & commenting. But I must tell Bb diminished and Pete that I couldn’t figure out where to comment, which is a shame because I did want to. Make it easier for us, fellas! Happy to read any others– just make contact.
    http://mairmusic.wordpress.com/

  16. i am very confused. my site is on that list there but i am unaware of how it got there or why it is there. i know i am excited about it though! 🙂 can anyone explain to me?

  17. Greetings!!
    With this poem, I would like to participate in the Thursday Poets’ Rally:
    http://kavisionz.wordpress.com/2010/06/26/strong-contenders-indeed/

    I have a few more poems on my blog… please feel free to read through them, before deciding 🙂
    Your comments would be most welcome…

    Ofcourse I have already started visiting fresh poets, and am throughly enjoying the reads! Will surely let you know when I am done with the 18, as per the requirement..

    Thanks for the encouragement..

    Best Regards!

    1. Rally week 24 is not open yet…
      please wait…

      you must have a new poem,
      original,
      and I have new rules to announce on Wednesday…

      1. I will be posting a new poem a little later today…
        As for reading/commenting on the works of fresh poets, it’s difficult to stop once you’ve begun… And frankly, I have no clue how many I might’ve read thus far, but I am pretty sure I have read and commented on well over 20!!!! 🙂

        So… whenever u deem right, please do let me know if I am in 🙂
        Thanks once again for taking the time..

  18. Its really a great post. I am sure that anyone would like to visit it again and again. After reading this post I got some very unique information which are really very helpful for anyone. This is a post having some crucial information. I wish that in future such posting should go on.
