    2026 Poetry Anthology - Choices - **Wrap-up**

    By Valkyrie

    We had twelve poems featured for this year's poetry anthology. What a perfect way to celebrate National Poetry Writing Month! A huge thank you to all who participated by writing poems, reading, reacting, commenting, and reviewing.  Participation is what keeps these events going every year, and I know myself, for one, look forward to the anthologies all year.  I couldn't coordinate the anthologies without help, so I'd like to give a shout-out to the people who make things happen behind the scenes

Weekly Wrap Up (Mar. 29 - Apr. 4)

Psst, turn your speakers down I couldn't help to notice @Bill W status was changed to 'Barefoot' and I pictured him dancing to this song in the warm weather. Now that I got that ear worm in your head , let's move on   I'm not sure how many people have the big 3 celebrations with family, or if it just 2, or maybe only 1, but up here in Canada, it isn't necessarily based on religion, as commercialism has won out, but do you do anything for Easter? Up here, it is usua

Identity

Who am i? It’s a question i think we all ask from time to time. i've been asking that a lot recently. i’m doing some work on myself, talking with a therapist almost weekly and it’s been a really good thing. Except. i'm discovering that i’m not who i thought i was. Kind of. i’ve discovered that i really am “good enough” and that “good enough” isn’t “average” or “meh” in the way that it was in my head. “Good enough” always had a negative connotation. But it’s not really a negat

Words for My Brother

I went to Kentucky. My brother's funeral was on Saturday, and I needed to be there for a number of reasons. Chief among them was my mother. She needed support. She needed to know she wasn't alone. She needed to know that Adam mattered. So I went. My sister and I met with Mom the morning before the funeral. It was scheduled for 10 AM, and we sat at her house with her for a couple of hours before heading to the funeral home. About a half hour before it was time to go, she looke

Who Are You?

You ever ask yourself that question?  I have been, often over the past few years. Who am I? Better would who the hell do you think you are?  For many reasons, at many times.  Maybe it's time to look at that honestly. Yeah, maybe it is.
