Monthly Favorites - November

Sun Nov 13, 2005, 5:46 PM

It's me, Sara

Ok, so here's my choice for the mothly favorite: Wedding Toast

And my Comment for it: This poem was written by one of my rl best friends. That didn't sway my choice though. There are so many great poems out there! I have plenty to choose from for next month, that's for sure. But for this month, I choose this poem. It has great meaning in it, and it's well written. It has that rhyme to it that makes it flow, and it has the theme that is easy to connect to. It does have a little odd pieces to it, but that only helps make it interesting and captivating. I've read it over and over many times, and I still enjoy reading it. It's on of my favorites that she has written, so I choose it for my monthly favorite here ^^

Hello, it's ~crazynloveless (AKA ~CrazyNotSoLoveless). I'm sorry this is delayed, I owe you all my apologies -- Better late than never though right?

My monthly favourite is: cashier by *SirMink.

I watched this poem grow through two stages, and its development was what you would expect of a poem. However, this piece stands out in its differences, it isn't a common or cliche topic at all, has a great use of parentheses (Which many poets fail at using properly or successfully), and to top it off, Mike uses a touch of humour that made me smile and laugh throughout the piece. Diversity is good, but good isn't always diversity. Well, this is both. Congratulations to you Mike, I enjoyed seeing the two versions - The final being a well polished, humourous piece. --Chloe

i liked the poem but just one question wasnt the monthly favorites suposed to be one poem writen in this month. You know the Monthly Favorites Journal should be made in the last days of the month or the beggining of the next month and should be a poem writen in the previous or in that month , this will be good because we could see the evolucion of our writing and try to always get to a new level if we always keep looking for old ( when i say old its not bad ) poems we will losse a big part of evolution because we will always look for the past when we should be looking for the new the inovation the climax. Remenber this is just my opinion and i wanted to made it be heard.

And the day draws to a close
When the light of your life sighs
And love dies in your eyes
Only then will I realize
What you mean to me.

Looking at the old isn't all that bad. It can give us something to reflect upon. And most people that are still writing in the same format and before won't have much change in just a few months. I was just asked to pick a favorite poem from soneone out of the club, and this was my choice. Poem of the month is only a poem picked that should deserve recongnition, the poem and its poet.

Much Love,
Sara
