I'm a Published Poet!



I totally need this clock!

Today, I received two emails telling me that Yahoo! had accepted BOTH of the poems I submitted for publication!  I am SO happy!  It's a huge motivator to keep writing.  Not only am I officially published, I am earning money for every visit to the site!  I'm posting the links to both of my published poems and I'd LOVE LOVE LOVE it if you'd take the time to click on them and read them.  Both are short and won't take much of your time.

"The Earth's Lament" is about the pain and suffering of war, as experienced by the earth.  I wrote this poem a few weeks ago after visiting several battlefields in Virginia to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the Civil War.  You can read it here:  CLICK HERE TO READ THE EARTH'S LAMENT

"The Alchemist of Love" is about creating something out of nothing.  It's about being careful what you wish for.  Sometimes you can create something you THINK you want, but all it does is bring you pain and heartache later.  You can read it here:  CLICK HERE TO READ THE ALCHEMIST OF LOVE

Thank you all for your time, love, and support!

So, I stumbled across your Appalachian Trail blog and ended up here. What gives? Did you hike the trail or what?
