Some of the new poets I have discovered are: Jorge Luis Borges, Julia De Burgos, and Guillaume Apollinaire. From a book of The Best poems Ever: Carl Sandburg, Emily Dickinson, William Carlos Williams.
Favorite Authors Jack McDevitt,Anne McCaffery,James Rollins, and now have discovered Patricia Briggs. Almost forgot Bram Stoker!
Greatest Influence Sci-Fi authors who write about aliens, my 5th grade teacher Mrs.Moore, my mother who taught me tolerance.
About me felt the need to update. i have a motorcycle that i love to ride. i also like to paint with blacklight paints, and do engravings on glass and metal. i bond easily with dogs, i love photography and am in the process of learning how to fully use my digital camera. soon as i learn to put up some photos, i will post one of me.

Thanks for the inspiration

I can’t thank you enough for giving me the inspiration to at least attempt to get some of this stuff out of my head in a productive manner. The more I write, the easier the words seem to flow now, I just needed a kickstart I guess. Kudos for the kickstart I needed

Anne McCaffrey. I have every book she has written and there are a lot of them. The Dragonriders of Pern including the 3 by her son. The “To Ride Pegasus” series, The Crystal Singer books, the Ship Who Sang series, the Powers That Be series. Woo hoo! Hang in the GEE!

thank you for introducing me

Gee

Thank you for introducing me to the site. It is a nice feeling to be able to make contact with likeminded individuals who share the same passion for writing that I do. It has always been difficult for me to find people like that. And you are welcome. Anytime you need help, just let me know. I enjoy our poetry sessions and conversations while trying to figure out how to make the computer stop yelling at us….LOL. I will see ya over the weekend….

Your poem Geezer

Just for fun i am sending one to several poets.

SIR GEEZER

Geezer is not just a wheezer
he’s knighted you know
by the realm
Sir Geezer of the world wide main
he sends his poems with the rain
to succour all the waiting crops
of humans standing in the docks
and there we sail from pole to pole
at the helm
with dogs and humans on the trail
he’s one for spinning such a tale
those yarns of yore they look so pale
when he takes up his pen
and wields it with panache
the dog he’s waiting panting fast
with eyes of wonder,
ears aghast
he’s quite a blast

Love Q Ann

Sir Geezer

The you O’Queen, for your favour. It means as much to me as any token I have recieved. Your confirmation of my knighthood as a ‘knight of the realm’, is most important. I treasure your comments and love the way you make me feel like my quests are meaningful. The quest I most enjoy, is one of helping our fellow poets have a laugh. Sharing mirth and thought through the tales I tell, is what keeps this creaky knight getting on his faithful steed, [His name is Dog, by the way.]
and traveling about to the far corners of our world. I meet such fantastic people in Neopoetland. You are not the least of them. Your ardor is met with equality, Huzzas and Hoorays, for Queen Ann, Sir Gee.

Thank You

Thank you for your comment on path of good intent. I wrote this on 12/31/08. Just after I read a post card with a poem from Frost. I used the line The course over grown of greenery. As a salute to Robbert Frost. It is on of the lines from his pome A Road Not Taken. Hoping most would know that was from him. And the part about To toll upon a road is in reference to no matter what path we take in life there is a price to pay. We all must pay the tolltaker sometime.lol If you would I would like to know what the rule is for the use of a apostrophes. Like I have all ways said “The road to hell is paved with good intent and wasted repent.” The Lightman.

Apostrophes...

Apostrophes are used to: mark the omission of missing letter or letters from a word,to indicate the posessive case, and denote certain plurals such as cross your T’s. Also a digression from a discourse; like turning aside to speak with an absent person. And we are sped on our way by unthinking sloppy work. That greases the rails! ~ Geezer

feeling better now. I will be posting tonight, it has been kinda hard to do anything because I haven’t been able to sit for more than 10 or 15 mins. I will try extra hard to catch up with all the work I have missed. Thank you for your concern, and not to worry, I haven’t given up yet. Huggles back and lotta love, ~ Gee

Oh dear Sir Geezer

Ann of Norway

Have you been unwell? I will send the best physicians to cure whatever you
may have, they are there, and can travel beyond the trees and oceans to your
side to help soothe whatever ails your good brave self. I send at the same time a tonic
you will be pleased to receive of the finest wine produced on the slopes of
the Jotunheimen (home of the giants) the highest mountains in Norway,
where there are trolls and ‘tussi’ who lead one astray, they have the
potions to bring one back too and we wish you back in full vigeur,
would miss you here, with love from your Queen, here is my purple
handkerchief with which to soothe your brow.

Respectfully your servant albeit from this high stool.

I am growing stronger...

Each and every day, I recieve potions and medicinals from all the subjects of Neopoetland. I have taken them all, and soon should be able to leap over tall buildings and outrace speeding bullets.

So glad to hear your doing better … I just wanted you to know you have been in my thoughts (hugs) and take care of you or ill come over there and make you behave lol ;)

You would too...

However, that won’t be necessary, The threat of having another strong woman telling me how to behave will suffice! LOL My wife is on my butt more than I am. It has just been a couple of rough weeks. Not being able to sit for more than 10 or 15 mins. at a time has made life difficult. Especially having to sit in the taxi for a 12 hr. shift. All I can think of is getting home and lying down for awhile. Then it is such a relief, that I go to sleep. All that lying down hasn’t helped my colitus, and it just seems to be a mad circle. The whole thing got to be depressing, and made me less likely to to do anything at all. I am slowly getting back on track and will be fit real soon. Love and higgest bugs, ~ Gee
