2) Thank You, Bri for putting together another splendid showcase. You always do a great job. I shall revisit these poems and comment on them separately.
Richard, you and other readers/commenters are to be thanked for your interest in my showcases, usually monthly events. Thanks!
Bri, as always, an excellent showcase! I loved all of the poems. They all had something special to offer. From love to devotion to humour...it was all there! Bharati's poem had so very deeply moved me. I thought of my godmother as I was reading it.
Thank you Bri : ) As you can detect by my reply, that I'm still alive(just) Lovely to see my poem featured in your showcase : ) Don't underestimate me though : ) I can pounce at anytime : ) lol x
I DID detect some evidence that YOU are, indeed, probably, ALIVE. But, online 'one never knows'! ! ! ;)
BUT, ....PH IS STILL FREE. ;)))) I guess some members get PH with advertisements, so PH gets money from advertisers. I no longer find ads, and I pay nothing. bri : )
Damn, PH (after I edited the title) STILL lists this poem (in my list of poems) as for May, not for June. It is such a pathetic screw up that I should laugh at it. Hmm. ha ha? bri : )
By the way (BTW) thanks for your comments on my poem, I will read few of your poems when I have time.
Here is the comment with my Actual Name S H, Hope your mind is at rest now not WANDERING in Ugly thoughts. This showcase is par excellence. I enjoyed reading all five poems, thanks for sharing.
One just has to KNOW HOW to enjoy 'Ugly thoughts'! ! bri : ) but I also sometimes have 'pretty thoughts'. ;)
Hi Bri, Thanks for picking one of my poems to your Showcase and also for the stars you gave for this poem.Loved reading other poets.
Ha! ! ! In my poem list on PH, the title contains 'June', but, above, PH continues to print the title with 'May' though I tried to correct it by Editing. Hey! ! ! I already had/have a 'May Showcase' ('poem') in my list. bri
Delightful reading, Wondering how you came across these poems? I think instead of searching here and there If I read your showcase.......Let me try FEW.
To find/'come across' these poems I look in various places: Notifications, New Poets, New Poems, poems of members I know and appreciate as people and/or poets. Sometimes I look at PH poems by topic. Not all my methods come up with poems I like. : )
There are plenty poems, When I click on NEW POEMS, I feel like i am in ocean with most of the rotten/ dead fish / some SMELLY, and I come OUT quickly after reading few. Feel better to go to my FAV and read them again.
Similar to a woman meticulously selecting ripe berries that have fallen from trees, you have chosen poems from the PH platform with great care. I can imagine YOU with a MICROSCOPIC LENS picking those poems.
I hope some day my Poems will have the Honors to get featured here, All nice picks, elegant and wonderful.
Nice showcase, as usual, I corrected the typo stuck to struck. And also put the words in brackets () suggested by you either not required or to delete. Let readers read it and enjoy/ suggest/ comment OR do whatever they want to other than fighting in kitchen on foods or cooking.
All featured poems are super fine. Keep up this good job.
