A BOOK OF HALLOWEEN POEMS

While running this contest, a friend gave me a book of partially Halloween-
Autumn- Theme Poems, she'd come across.

Here's the title: MEN WOMEN AND GHOSTS
by Deborah Greger

Sale price -- $20.00

Publisher: Penguin Poets --- crt. 2008

This collection contains some fun reads in keeping with today's environmental trespass. Such as: "Death Comes To Florida" p. 73 and "To the West" p.37

Deborah Greger is also the author of ---

WESTERN ART (2004) and OFF-SEASON AT THE EDGE OF THE WORLD (1994)

SO ... Poets, this just goes to show there's hope for us all. The novices.

Whenever, you've a chance be sure to search local libraries* for poetry anthologies. Granted, bookstores are more likely to carry the latest editions.

While, as you know the poetry section is located in the nonfiction aisles.

Of course, this post is all about something to think about. Namely: reading such works and aspiring to create them.

Lastly -- Many times, as you/ Everyones -- are very much aware ---

Your local newspapers, even advert index type publications do print poetry submitted to them. Yes, that too is under the heading of SEASONAL. Simply, a tidbit of info to remember.
