"NANCY'S POETRY REVIEW FORUM appears on FRF, an abbreviation used for Find a Rev Forum. Here, in this bitem rules of engagement set poetry scribes straight. A guest reviewer is also available and credited by the hostess as being a favorable poet." DEC 16/ Rev sent from April Sunday Accepting poetry @ "Invalid Item" // Judged since 2006.
Now, my dear, there are several things about this forum intro/ mission statement, which you probably mean as generalizations.
AT: "Poetry is not prose." We may see by visiting the dewey decimal section of libraries, approx at 811. that there is indeed such an entity as prose poetry. Here, open onsite is such a read. Reference: "Invalid Item" Well, sure you are probably referring to rhyming via poetry, stanza worthy, of course.
AT: "But we are all readers ..." Yes indeed. Recently entering a 1000 word contest onsite in Nov, a contest judge declared (no name provided, of course not) that there are few professional reviewers on wc. Well, you could 'ave fooled me. However, you hit the nail on the head there. We are primarily all readers. Correct!
Now, next come across: "Writing is hard work ..." Agree there, due to editing, research, spell check, baiting an audience to read on & on, plot creations, setting, (etc)
AT: second part of sentence: "Writing is hard work and can be frustrating." A counterpoint runs: not always. Writing is a talent, a gift, competion, a hobby, a venue, an outlet for many who desire to communicate via both fiction and poetry. Thus it is not frustrating.
Reviewing review forums on DEC 15, 16 available by Public REV scene is a-okay as well. Found, one review forum presented by a fifteen year old, two by the wc often found age of seventeen. Not a problem either, as these folks can be closer to recalling English classes. And on their way to take more of them at college.
So, enjoy the waves of poetry, posted, containing incoming poetry in your forum. Please cherish these as precious gifts meandering, sometimes inner mental wisps from creative folks. As I know you already do so.
VERY MERRY MERRY!
Accepting poetry at both: "Invalid Item" and
"Invalid Item"
