"To keep the review thread clean..."
Because we're human and it will always happen, here's a thread for all the thank-you notes and off-topic banter that occasionally clog up the New Poems Reviews and others.
Enjoy.

hey, eve...i've always wondered. - that statue in 'the Poets' AV is you, isn't it.
well, it feels like it's you, anyway.
i know it is a position you'd like to be petrified into, when the time comes.

It's me with a slip on that's pulled up around my thighs and tummy. Someone once thought it was a pregnant woman. No, it's bunched up material--maybe some leftover baby fat. And I'm on a mountain that's outside my window. Well, I pasted myself on it. And on the other side is a photo of the night and the moon. This image is a few years old and hopefully I look less preggers now.

Need a reviewer for Sunday
Hello All...
First I would like to thank Bluerains, Rhyme Fairy and MET for covering for me the last 3 weeks while I made my big move to the West. I appreciate the rally force that stepped up to the plate when I asked for help. It encouraged my views on life and how people can stand up to help others when asked.
On that note: With the move my life has changed greatly. I want to spend more time with my partner learning about how to live as a couple (always a challenge!) and find time for writing. With these thoughts in mind I must step down as the Sunday reviewer. I hope that someone will step into the slot. I will still cover until someone takes the day.
I want to thank The Poets for giving me the opportunity to review on Sundays. I learned from reading others work and I enjoyed the process.
So once again thank you all for the support and learning experience! I will fill in also on days that someone needs to have covered regarding reviews. Just time for Du Lac to change in many areas.
blessings
Du~
PS my post has been edited and some feelings have been erased. I am sorry that my voice can not be heard. It was not done with ill intention;rather only to state how I felt upon returning to this forum after a brief time away.

It was - as it is - a beautiful composition, pregnant with possibility. Forgive the cliché.
I wasn't surprised it originated so many quality poems.

coming back
well I came back after two years of absence and was told that the place had gone down hill. I was thinking it had become to tame, or something. Reading a few threads, and popping my eyes back into my skull, I see that all sorts of nastyness is running rampet.
I used to be the argumentative type, clawing and biting my way, and never really getting out of it. Hell, look at the threads I was in two years ago, some of them got down right nasty. Today I realize that I lost friends like that, and really missed out on good chances to learn about people. I have also realized that I'd rather be happier than right all the time.
I would like to thank all who welcomed me back, especially my favorite fish friend.
I am hoping everyone will release their resentments and flow back into the poetry that this place was made for. I have missed many of you, and I hope you have been doing well.
I am thankful for accidently finding this place again, because I really have been neglecting my writing...and in so doing, neglected a part of my own soul.
Love,
Crow (okay, now my fingers are numb)

Okay, I peeked. I don't see many posts by you or anything negative--of course, I only glanced at a few. I'm sure you were a pussycat compared to most. It's nice that you've returned. I'm pretty sure that I recall your cool name.

Hi Du, good to see you, glad the move went well.
Okay, so tell me, what is that AV? It is fucking with my brain. Looks like a duck billed nun with the shrunken head of a former lover.... maybe Millie or Vanilli. ?

lol Hey, I wasn't the mean one! The fish was comparing my poems to "Hallmarkain efforts". But, in my defense, I did write a "special" poem for him in under five minutes. He didn't appreciate it. *sniffle*

The Thief
by My Erotic Tail ©
Who is this thief that steals from my line,
again and again, time after time.
Leaving dirty laundry scattered around,
finding them laying on the ground.
What a mess they have made of things,
the emotions they stir and sorrow they bring.
I wait and watch my laid out line,
I have patience and plenty of time.
Searching for answers to the crime,
who is littering these things of mine?
Then I saw them land on my line,
taking my clothes pins one at a time.
The black Crow that has caused such a mess,
likes the shinny spring of the clothes pins I guess.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I think of this when I seen your screen name...<bigrin> |

hey, it did the job...it riled the fish. So, so worth it. LOL
actually a certain other member replied by saying "it the fish! eat the fish!" or something like that, which he didn't appreciate, either
