I am NOT a poet, to begin with. That whole WordPress Poetry 101 will most probably (and thankfully, for them and for my dear readers) never see my name on their roster.
It’s not that I don’t appreciate poets; I’m married to one. It’s just that poetry isn’t altogether my thing.
I read the Aeneid once, and even understood about 70% of it, so I really am at least part human. But I also relate along the lines of George Carlin’s “See my beard? Ain’t it weird?” paradigm.
Having clarified that, I would like to offer to my readers a new category in my little cyberspace corner:
(Drum roll…)
NOT-MY POETRY
(I wanted to name it Pontifications Of Other’s Poetry, but was concerned that the acronym might be a bit off-putting for some of the more gentle folk.)
On Thursdays, I will be posting others’ poetical musings for your interpretation and review. And if you have any to submit, feel free to add your URL in the comment section.
You just never know who might be reading…(George Carlin would be proud.)
This is such a cute intro to your new venture. Thank you very much for a “go-to” place to see “our” own poems. The bit about the acronym was hilarious! Perhaps you did use wisdom to drop that Pontifications …
