National Poetry Month 2024 (Link to forum in Playground)

Showcase

Post your poems (up to three per week), receive comments, and comment on the works of others

This forum is the main showcase for the site. Post up to three of your poems here per week. Please also make comments on at least three other poems (of others) for each poem of your own that you post. Comments in this forum may be of a general nature or on the content and/or form of the poem itself.

If you would like constructive criticism, please post your poem in the WORKSHOP forum. You may post it here also and request constructive criticism by placing (CA) next to the title of your poem, but the comments you receive here might only be of a general nature. Replies in the Workshop forum are expected to be carefully detailed and thought-out.
