Hi all

I am a new member of the Wild Poetry Forum, having only joined in the last week or so, but am honored and nicely surprised to have my poem "Breath" named "Featured Poem Pick of the Week for January 3, 2005." See
http://www.wildpoetryforum.com/discu.../12/28340.html

My birthday comes up on Monday, so this is a nice way to kick things off.

All my best

Chris

Congrats Chris. A very enjoyable poem. And an interesting site; I note another moderator named Cohen. It's an on-line take-over. One forum at a time! Dee

Hi Dee

Thank you so much for your kind words. Since Lisa Cohen of Wild Poetry Forum lives, I believe, in Boston, and you live in California, it looks as if you Cohens have the country just about sewn up between you.

All my best

Chris

Chris, first off, Congratulations! Any time you're picked out of crowd it's good.

But that site, dude, I have experience at that site. You won't learn anything there, it's a mutal admiration society, where people post 16 poems a week and everyone likes everything that's written. Just thought I'd offer some advice.

Again congrats,
Best,
Greg

Hi Greg and Katy

Thank you both for your nice congratulations on the Wild Poetry Forum accolade and my birthday. Greg, I have heard from several other poets exactly what you have said, that Wild Poetry Forum is a mutual admiration society. On the other hand, during my brief time there, I have found that I have received some useful comments, so it might seem that my membership there will serve a useful purpose. Nonetheless, I do appreciate your wise counsel, Greg.

All the best

Chris
