I'm Moondustwriter and I am hosting this week. I would like to welcome you to another week of fine poetry at One Shot. If you have any feedback for future One Shots send them our way. Oneshotpoetry@gmail.com is the best way to reach us. We strive to create an interactive community; we want to represent the talent that is out there - YOU!
If you are new to One Shot, we are glad to have you join us. Here is the format we follow:
1) Write a poem
2) Link your poem to One Shot using our Mr Linky (your name and the URL for the poem)
3) Visit other One Shot poets. Tell them how you felt when reading, encourage them, interact...we might just learn something from each other...
4) Tell others about One Shot Wednesday: by including a link to this page on your post, through Twitter or Facebook
On behalf of One Shot Wednesday: Pete Marshall, Adam Dustus, Brian Miller and Myself, welcome to our corner stage of poetic paradise. We are glad you are here.

ReplyDeleteSmiles
I have mine up and I'm looking forward to reading a lot of great poems! So glad you all host this.
ReplyDeleteHa! Given my past comic verse, you probably think I can't write dark, serious, brooding poetry. Well, you might be right, but at least it is a dark and stormy night in my poem. Come on over and check it out.
ReplyDeleteI linked up today. Thanks for giving us a place to write.
ReplyDeleteNow I'm off to stop by a few other's.
Wow, over 50 entries and it's not Wednesday yet.
ReplyDeleteI’m in with Yin and Yang.
This time i tried something different from my usual style.Friends, i look forward to your honest opinions. Thanks :)
ReplyDeleteIbrahim - I really enjoyed reading several of your poems.
ReplyDeleteI know I am not alone in not wanting to join myspace. Wanted you to know that others are reading your work

ReplyDeleteTracy H
good morning everyone!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great place ... I am liking to take part
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great idea guys! :)
It's awesome to be back!! Already looking forward to some amazing reads!
ReplyDeleteHere is my attempt for this week... It happens to be a response to a fun challenge as well!! ;-) I hope you like it..
Have a great week ahead!!
it's my first time here...looking forward to some amazing reads and here's my modest attempt http://amritaghosh.wordpress.com/2010/09/04/any-color-you-like/
ReplyDeleteFinally made it here! hope I've done this right. :)
ReplyDeletehi all great to see so many playing today..got to start my rounds soon but rest assured might be late but will see each and everyone of you..happy One Shot..pete
ReplyDeleteI wrote this romantic-ish one in church. Why not? :)
ReplyDeleteI've just gotten around to posting mine. I see I'll be quite busy reading everybody else's - so many!
ReplyDeleteFinally made it! I've been lurking about and reading.. but this is my first week joining in.
ReplyDeleteI visit and comment as much as I can, but often my slow dial up connection makes that near impossible.
Ya know you go to sleep and wake up and find that One Shot has grown.
ReplyDeleteGreat to have: Someone is Special, my friend Catt, amritagosh, His Fire Fly and Tracyhsays
ya know I'm thinking we are gonna need a prize thing down the road as a way to thank all of you. "No Pete it won't be your car."
Was encouraged to stop by, and if you don’t mind I would like to stay a while. I’ll try to learn quickly, but my dog thinks I’m a bit of a slow learning, and he’s usually right; please bare with me. Cheers, David
ReplyDeleteif any one wants to win my car i reckon its a worthy prize...although you will have to pay shipping costs which equate to about 10k...any takers? comes with its own taped up bumbers....dents and rust...cheers to all on One Shot day and keep the love flowing...pete
ReplyDeleteI have posted my poem Viagra For Your Soul from my blog "Backyard Poetry. It is a poem that explores our quick fix, pill popping society and its ramifications. Essentially imagine finding a pill to deal with our political and social problems. Nothing is ever that easy.
ReplyDeleteThanks,
George Pappas
Hello! I found this because of the poem of a dear friend (Dulce, who is is actually number 60 or something like that), and I thought it would be very interesting even when I not always write exactly poetry, but I do love writing.
ReplyDelete:) By the say Im still learning how it works :/
HEY! I am here also for the first time...and I especially like "no rules"...makes it easy--and fun! Thank you, peeps, for hosting these special days.....
ReplyDeleteso many great new faces and so many friends..enjoy the freedom of One Shot..cheers pete
ReplyDeleteThanks for providing the spot, and the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteBill Jones

ReplyDeletecommas in the pauses
I think there is something wrong with Dulce's link. :-(
ReplyDeleteIt says the blog does not exist, and I'm sure it does.
Woke up this morning to see some more poets signed up :) Looking forward to reading them.
ReplyDeleteThink this will get you to Dulce's site hopefully
ReplyDeleteThis had been a great One Shot I have enjoyed each poem - always inspired for another week,
Hope you enjoyed this week.
Hope those of you who were first timers that you felt welcome.
For Moondustwriter this is a wrap
