One Shot Wednesday: A Place To Share Your Poems


Welcome to One Shot Wednesday - where you get to highlight your poetic talents

Moondustwriter (aka Leslie Moon) here hosting week 2 of One Shot Wednesday. If you are new, here are some brief instructions;

1, Write an original poem and post it to your blog

2, Link back to One Shot Wednesday from your post

3, Sign up in the Mr Linky list, linking directly to your post, AFTER you've posted it. Mr Linky will be open from 5pm EST (Tuesday) until 3am EST (Thursday)

4, Go visit others that have posted. This is a great way to learn new forms, meet new poets and gain inspiration for your next piece. though this is not mandatory we encourage you to visit at least one other poet and give some helpful feedback.

We welcome all forms of poetry at One Shot and hope you feel the sense of community here. On behalf of  my fellow cohorts, Adam Dustus (who has just joined us), Brian Miller and Pete Marshall - welcome and enjoy!!!!!

  3. Mine is a little loose to be a "poem", but I feel it's good "prose". I posted it 2 weeks ago to my blog and wanted to give it some attention due to the message I tried to portray within it.
