Poems & stuff, last edition for now!

I give up. I am throwing in the towel after this. There is simply too much good stuff to go through out there, and trying to blog all of it takes away from the time I could spend reading it. The following is only a sampling of stuff that’s been written in the last few days. I’m going to work on putting together a list of the blogs that I follow. Hopefully, I’ll have it up within the next week or so. I have to say, it’s truly inspiring to see so much out there … to me every last bit of it is worthy of blogging about but alas, alas …

  • What does not stand upon words? by Peter Ciccariello at Hope Street.
  • A Little Valentine Poem by Todd Colby’s Glee Farm; nice.
  • Valentine by Rachel Phillips at Outlasting Moths; several other good poems as well.
  • “The Key to My Heart is Upside Down” by Elizabeth Barrette at The Wordsmith’s Forge.
