Welcome to One Shot Wednesday - Week 16
On behalf of all the team at One Stop Poetry, I welcome you to another One Shot Wednesday. I am Pete Marshall & I will be your host this evening.
Over the last couple of weeks I haven't been around as much as i would like and actually missed out on lasts weeks One Shot, which was an amazing week of poetry. Those who know me and follow my work will understand the reasons why but I would still like to take this opportunity to thank all of you who have forwarded kind words of support over the last few weeks...you know who you are and I thank you immensely from the bottom of my heart,
Anyway enough of that, I am back and looking forward to yet another amazing feast of poetic brilliance!
When we started One Shot we had a dream and with all your help & support that dream has become a reality! One Stop Poetry has become a platform to help promote your work and bridge the path towards publication, once published it is also there as your friend to help you on your continued journey.
If you're new to OSW, here's how it works:
1) post a poem on your blog
2) Link your poem to One Shot using Mr Linky, where the prompt asks put the URL for the poem there. The URL is the web address for your poem
3) Visit other One Shot Poets. Tell them how you feel when your are reading, encourage and interact with them
4) Tell others about OSW by including a link to this page on your post
Once again thank you for taking part & let the festivities begin

Just a haiku this week ... I had a longer poem but inadvertently published it too early. Ah, well.
This is my first try at this. Looking forward to reading everyone else's work.
Sometimes my friends, its the small technical things that take me a while!! but I have finally figured out how to make a link at the bottom of the page back to here. :P
Cheers to another great night xo
I'm new here...hoping to get my poetry legs back. Thanks for the outlet.

So many years between us. That's what started it.
Tomorrow early with coffee in hand I will read of the pastries of poems!
Looking forward to reading some excellent poetry!

Everybody's taste is different, but I really enjoy Steven Marty Grant's verse. Please give us a heads-up on this thread if you know other writers who write w/ similar semantic intensity.
thanks for taking over Brian. Pete, welcome back!!! You have been missed!
This week I linked what is probably my last ode to Autumn this year.
Now, I am off to read some of your natural wonders, everyone!
Thanks for sharing...
