The leader of our local support group is looking for poetry to use in our Day Of Remembrance meeting/event. I have seen some very poignant verses written by you, the writers here at Top Shelf. If you wouldn't mind having some of your work used for this purpose, please let me know. NO poems or verses published here will be used without permission by the author of same.
If any of you know of some other works, please link me to them? Of course, none of this is being done for profit, and nothing used will be published in any way whatsoever. It's only for our event.
Thanks all.
hugs 'n love,
Catherine Linda MIchel

Of course... I only have one... I've been working on another, but it's not anywhere near polished enough for posting.

You may use my poem 'Lad or Lass' if you wish.
Anything I have is yours.

Broken Irish is better than clever English.
Thank you all so far.
I know that the ones we choose will be more than adequate for our Remembrance Day event.
HUgs and love,

Writing is what you do when you put pen to paper, being an author is what you do when you bring words to life
Of course...
Just, as with the others, proper attribution is made.

The Child, and the girl in camouflage
Just let me know if you use them and where
I am always amazed at the power of words when they come flowing out of the heart; even in small numbers.
Are there any specific poems that you have in mind?
Tell us just a little more about your day of remembrance, and of the types of poems you might be looking for, and you will probably get some pretty good suggestions from the gang.

if anything i've written will be something you want
you have my permission to use it as long as you mention me as the writer.

Thank you!
Hi everyone! Your generosity is very appreciated.
Cathy told me about this and I had to open an account just to say thanks. I'll be perusing all of your work in the near future and hope we'll be able to use some in our memorial ceremony. As one who has been a lifelong fan of the written word I will be very circumspect in attributing any work to the author. No need to worry about that.
I, myself, am more geared to writing nonfiction but that doesn't mean I can't appreciate good writing when I see it. I'll be looking forward to reading things here as time permits. Thanks again!
Hugs & Smiles

You have one of mine
As long as you tag the poem with my name I have no difficulty with you posting it. If you want I can write another.
