A holding place for my journey across 50 weeks of poetic thoughts.

Poetic Explorations



My journey into the world of form poetry will take place over the next 50 weeks. My goal is to create a poetic expression using a different poetic form each week during 2011. The selection of the forms will be decided by the group, Poetic Explorations, but the musings and results will be my own.

I hope you'll find something of interest here. Enjoy!
