Did you try to revise a poem? How did that work out for you? Tell us; give us a link to your revised poem.
If you just couldn’t face revision, it’s OK. Give us a link to a new poem. (Try revision sometime, though, and bring it to us another day.)
Please, link back here in your posts, either with a hyperlink to Read Write Poem or by using the badge in your post. Sidebar links are great but it helps our “internet health” when you link in every post you contribute to the project. And please add “Read Write Poem” in your tags, if you don’t mind.![]()
For the new folks: Please take a few moments to read the About pages, including our Copyrights page. If you have any questions about the project after reading through those pages, email us at info (at) readwritepoem (dot) org.













having nearly disappeared for the month of April (alas) I am back with something sparked by the Read Write Image this week:

I can’t wait to catch up on reading the poetry from last month!
This was a good motivation for revising one of my April poems that I wasn’t yet happy with. Thanks!

New, revised, recycled? It’s all good!
