FanStory wrote to poesyapprentice: Joy of Music finished second in the contest "Essence poem contest"


poesyapprentice: Stopping in for just a brief moment to wish everyone a happy, safe holiday season. Had a little setback with my health but hope to be back on site soon! Best of times to you! xxx


poesyapprentice: Charger on my laptop is a gonner so I'll be back when I get a new one. This site doesn't work on my old phone. Happy writing everyone!


poesyapprentice: Thank you, my friends, for your thoughts and prayers. I made it thru surgery, and, after an extremely tough first day, I'm doing ok. Family was in for the weekend so I need to catch up on my rest, but I hope to be back to reviewing soon. XX
    Debra White: Wishing you a speedy recovery :) x -
    poesyapprentice: Thank you!!
    -


poesyapprentice: Going in for major surgery on Thursday (a complete abdominal hysterectomy) and will be off work for over a month. Would appreciate prayers for finances and healing. Thank you! xx
    trimple: Hey Posey
    I will be thinking of you my friend
    , and look forward to your swift return.
    Much love
    Tracey :) xxxxx -
    Maureen's Pen: You're in my prayers my friend. With Love. -
    poesyapprentice: Thanks, girlies!! Much appreciated!! Love and hugs! -
    Barb Hensongispsaca: I wish you little pain and a speedy recovery -
    poesyapprentice: Thanks Barb. I made it through and I'm home. It's been a bit rough so far but I hope to be back in good form soon. Love ya! xx -


poesyapprentice: I can do this!
    shelley kaye: better make sure it's legal first....

    ;-)

    poesyapprentice: Aw, you're no fun! Lol! ; ) -


poesyapprentice: Free Verse shouldn't have intentional rhyming, but Free Style can...just sayin' ; )
    DIS-illusioned: Free to be versatile in free verse 'n style. -
    Kiki12: sure it can, chickie, it just shouldn't have a structured rhyme pattern like ABAB, but intentional, internal, or slant rhymes are acceptable in free verse. It was meant to be on the same bar as alliteration, assonance, all the other devices used... -
    poesyapprentice: Thank you for your input, girlie! I should have clarified that I meant true end rhymes, which I don't believe are supposed to be included, especially in an intentional patterned way. Internal and slant are fine. Free style and free verse are not the same IMHO. In free style anything goes and this is not so in free verse. I really consider Donaldww's essay On Free Verse to be an excellent and accurate reference. : ) -
    Kiki12: I figured you meant the intentional end rhymes after I thought about it. I agree that free style and free verse are quite different. Keep the conversation going out there in poetry world, it's an important topic, I think :)
    xo -
    poesyapprentice: I'm glad you clarified, though, for anyone reading my page. Last thing I want to do is add to the confusion by not being clear on what I mean. Thanks, girlie. : ) xx -


poesyapprentice: I would like to suggest that anyone wishing to learn about Free Verse check out DonaldWW's profile. He wrote an excellent, informative article that I highly recommend! Also, I'm sending a note to Tom suggesting a link to the article, or the article itself, be placed on Poetry Dances.
    poesyapprentice: Tom said he would read it, now let's hope he uses it! -
    poesyapprentice: Donald said he was! Yeah! Now which one can we vamp up next? Any takers? Really would love to see it be the best resource out there on a site 'like' ours. : ) -
    poesyapprentice: To my knowledge it is still not up there yet. sigh. Wonder what the hold up is. -


poesyapprentice: Wild nights! Wild nights!
Were I with thee,
Wild nights should be
Our luxury!

Futile the winds
To a heart in port,--
Done with the compass,
Done with the chart.

Rowing in Eden!
Ah! The sea!
Might I but moor
To-night in thee!

Emily Dickinson
    Gypsy Starchild: Thank you :) -
    poesyapprentice: For what, honey? -


poesyapprentice: Not the greatest pic, but a most recent snapshot... a trade to uncage the dragon ; )
    Barb Hensongispsaca: Nice picture, girl. Love the piece tsikilili, and the authors notes to explain. -
    poesyapprentice: Oh you are so sweet! Thank you for both compliments! I was hoping you would enjoy it, Barb. Have I asked what band of Cherokee to which you belong? My family are members of the Cherokee Nation (Oklahoma). Time for me to get to work. xx -
    Barb Hensongispsaca: Member of the Cherokee in North Carolina. I want to get my daughter back and keep her in the loop. Her heritage is important. Have not heard from you in a long time. Where are you and why nothing after the Golden Rule? I miss you -
    poesyapprentice: I just got your reply. Where is your daughter? I miss you too, I really do. Alot going on at home and in my head. There's three more after the Golden Rule. Hugs, my friend. -
    Barb Hensongispsaca: I don't know why I am not getting them. Will review as I love your work. My daughter is in Ohio where I am from. Clear your head thru writing girl. Ido. -
    poesyapprentice: Some of them are contest pieces so you won't be notified that I wrote them for blind contests. It's hard to write and keep up with everything at home and trying when I can to keep in touch with my friends here, but last night I finally found some time for the free verse. I hope you get your daughter back! Enjoyed chatting with you today girl and now I have to get my rear in gear for work, again, lol! Stay sweet : ) -


poesyapprentice: Sweet, sweet nothing to say...
    Doc Holiday: Congrats on winning the naani poetry contest!
    -
    ~Dovey: Congrats on the Temptation Contest! -
    charlyann: Congratulations Miss Temptation :) -
    poesyapprentice: thank you so much for the congrats, all of you!!!! : ) -
    Stepperdark: You have a new fan... your writing is uber segzy. -
    poesyapprentice: There you are Stepper! I sent you a little message, but didn't realize you had messaged here as I often forget to check. Thank you so much for the compliment and glad to have ya! -


poesyapprentice: I suppose what I wish to say first is thank you to those warm and welcoming peeps I have met in my short time here.. and then I will get down to the grit, lol! I am here to learn, first and foremost, so please be honest in your reviews. Those of you whose work I have reviewed, you already know that I am honest about yours. Some of you love that and some of you hate it, but I believe in honesty, with kindness and respect. If you ONLY want props then please don't read my reviews. This starving artist needs every member dollar I can get and I feel that honest reviews keep the integrity of the process alive here. Blessings to each and every one of you!
    Sarkems: OK, I have to ask this, because I keep seeing this word in this context. What do you mean by props? To me, it is short for "properties" as in stage props, or it means holding something up, neither of which fit. Confused... -
    Sally Carter: Pending a reply, I'm guessing it's another way of saying "fluff" reviews? ie propping up the writer's self esteem? -
    poesyapprentice: Sorry for the lack of clarity! As reviewers we are to tell both what we don't like and what we do. Some only want to hear the good, to have their ego boosted so to speak, and do not want to know what others think could be improved about their work. I don't want fluff reviews because that won't help me to improve as a writer. If I can't find anything I like about someones work I don't review it because I'm not here to rag on people's work and bring them down, but if there are things I like and some I don't then I give an honest review and hope it is helpful to them. There have been some really great pieces promoted on this site and I love it when I can award my sixes,too. -
    Jaguar80: I think your reviews are wonderfully helpful -
    Earl of Oxford: Love the new profile pic, Marsha (latest one on 25th Sep). Hey, you ALMOST look intelligent in that pose. haha! By the way, my previous comments still stand.

    Ray xx -
    poesyapprentice: Jaguar80- Thank you so much! I have had some really good help on here and being able to give back a little makes me feel good! Blessings to you! -
    poesyapprentice: So sweet of you Ray, lol! and thanks sooo much : )! Muah! -
    xotic flotsam: Let it be known, I welcome constructive observations, including your thoughtful reviews. -
    poesyapprentice: Thank you so much Exotic : ) I haven't been on in a bit and I'm sure you have one or two coming your way by now. Happy Holidays to you! -
    Child of the King: Hi there
    I just finished my bio-- nice to meet you--:-) -
    charlyann: Big Congrats Chickie!!!..well done...don't blow all your winnings on sketchy fellas and booze -
    Jaguar80: Who's a contest winner???!!!! -
    Stepperdark: I know its been a while since your post on sept 5th but it didn't seem to me like you ever got an answer. The modern urban slang usage of the word 'Props' would be an abbreveation of the word Proper, as in proper recognition or proper respect. Its a form of accolades. -
    poesyapprentice: Stepper, seems I keep missing you here and not hearing from you anywhere else, lol! You are right, a specific definition as you have given here was not supplied. Now, why so mysterious and frequently absent. Do pop round in message to say hello, won't you? I frequently forget to check here for comments. -
    poesyapprentice: Jaguar, speaking of absent, where the hell ya been, Sweetie! I've no notification of continuation of your story and I'd like to get to know my favorite author a wee bit better, too. : ) So hurry back! xx -
