Congratulations to all the winners and participants…the group grows exponentially, I think. Impressive!
Have fun with the next Rally.
Count me in, Ji! 🙂
let me know after you post.
😉
Wow. You sure do put a lot of effort into this.
yes I agree with Nessa you do put a lot of work in and you can see why, because you believe in it xxx power to you dear
Many thanks,
Well, I have made mistakes in the past because I did not know what other people are thinking, I took everything positively, in the end, I was HIT and almost “DIE” from this blogging world, I have become very careful, because I need to make sure I know what people want or think and I need to protect myself from getting hurt again…
I enjoy people who agree with me and who take my efforts positively, thus as I said, this post is here, u choose to follow, or walk away, I have NO control of you.
Thanks again for those who do understand me…
well, do what fits you.
Happy Wednesday!
Hey Jingle.. here is my entry for week 26
http://rhythmofmysoul.wordpress.com/2010/08/11/my-promises/
I’ve already visited new poets and will be visiting more soon..!! Thanks so much..!! 🙂
nice to see you in
😉
Sorry Jingle, I am confused. Which are the poems I am supposed to look at, the “Week 26 Participant’s List,” or the “Week 26 Fresh Poets to Know or Explore,” or any combination of the above? Thanks!
in general,
as a first time participant, you are recommended to visit 18 participants from the list of your choice…
of course, if you wish, you can do fresh poets or the perfect poet award winners…
thanks!
🙂

Hi again, Ji!
Well have finished visiting more than eighteen of the newbee’s and many others. Truth to tell, couldn’t figure out if some of them were participating because of the dates on their posts and because there was no mention of Rally!!?? Anyway, enjoyed the exercise and now must get on with the mundane duties … Such is life. Have a good one, Jingle.
Jamie 🙂
relax yourself,
u must be tired….
Great job done…
