They were once here,
They used to write on ‘PoemHunter'.
Now they are not here;
Can anybody spot, as to where they are?

@Bri Edwards, Thanks for taking the poem to your 'MyPoemList'. That's an inspiration I look forward to.
@Bri Edwards, Cassandra Jasmine was a very polite poet and conceptually and literarily quite matured compared to her age.
@Geetha Jayakumar, Thank you so much for appreciating the tribute. 'Probably some may have taken break. Lets hope they may join soon.' - I too hope so, may it be so! I wouldn't like to think anyone has passed away, although few of them are aged.
@Hazel Durham, Thank you so much for reading my poem and sharing your appreciative thoughts in the comment. I am delighted to have your appreciation.
(cont.) P.S. i was pretty sure i'd heard from Cassandra this year, once, but i don't find a record of it. perhaps i dreamed it! ! ! she supposedly had a sister 'here' also.
(cont.) to MyPoemList. i know i sometimes do not send comments or messages to members (considered friends) for weeks, and often much longer. it is like real life! ! ! AND there are poets who are still active on PH who (i'm sure for a wide variety of reasons) have not communicated with me in A LONG TIME. IT is part of the 'human experience', after all. people and clothing and food fads come and go. bri :) (cont.)
Cassandra James is the only one i recognize; of course she was probably an old man like you(?) and i claim to be now! ! ! who REALLY knows what to believe online! ! ! ? ? ? ? ? probably REALLY NO ONE. i'm ACTUALLY a 37 year old exotic dancer in Istanbul, if the TRUTH were known! and i believe some members have multiple names and accounts here, but i like to believe (most) of what i read here and elsewhere. [[note well that i typed (most) . (cont.)
Beautiful tribute to poets of Poemhunter. Probably some may have taken break. Lets hope they may join soon. Loved reading it. Thanks for sharing with us.
A beautiful tribute to all the poets missing from Poemhunter now, it is sad that these wonderful poets heve decided to leave Poemhunter for whatever reason. You remember them with such tenderness and with great respect for their great critique on your superb poems! Thank you for sharing Khairul!
A wonderful remembrance. This poem resonates with me. Even if I am just barely 9 months on this site, I have come to like many poets whose comments really touched my heart. Their comments fuel my pen to soar. Beautifully crafted and well.executed write.10+++
I have many more names, whom I remember and miss a lot. Thanks for reading my poem and being the first to comment. I am inspired by your kind comment and rating.
@Bri Edwards, 'she supposedly had a sister 'here' also' - yes, a cousin.
