request for votes and a form

Journal Entry: Sun Mar 19, 2006, 1:15 AM
Welcome to Poetic Forms, a community where people who want to learn about and write with traditional and modern poetic forms can do so together.

It was created by ~alenia on May 22, 2003.

:pointr:Note from the Moderator:pointl:

I have decided to change the policy on voting for the form of the month as I never seem to have many votes. The month after a certain form is given, people will still be free to vote. The winning poem will be displayed two months after it was given and the poems from the previous month will be voted on. If anyone thinks this policy is a bad idea, let me know your objections, as I am still quite new to this. :)

:pointr:Write-Ups:pointl:
If you want to do an official write-up on any forms with a specified rhyme scheme, meter, and/or repetition, please note *poetic-forms. Suggestions on forms for others to write up are welcome.

The write-ups should contain a brief history of the form, perhaps an example, and a full description of the rhyme scheme, meter, common themes, etc. You will receive a :heart: next to your name for accepted form write-ups.

We could use some help here. If someone would like to do a write up for sonnets it would be especially appreciated.

    Hey, I know this isn't poetry but I'm a member of the group who has been working on a story for a while and would really appreciate some creative criticism. If anyone gets a chance please check these out and let me know what I can do to make it better.

    Hi all! :wave:

    Sent a note to join this group, especially as I noticed quite a few people in it who are interested in Eastern poetic forms, which is my main interest (my signature is in haiku form, in case that didn't give me away already). I believe these forms ought to have more recognition in the DA community and deserve thorough treatment.

    I replied, but not from this account. I didn't feel I ought to be speaking for the group when I was being opinionated. :)

    ~PenWieldingPoets is a newly started community for poets that use meter.
    We're looking for members, so if you use meter or would like to learn then make sure to drop by!

    Hi!

    Is this community still going? I love the structure of some of the more unusual forms of poetry and would love to be a part of this.

    Thanks!

    Is there life, still, here? I most certainly hope so, I need plenty of help in learning about as many forms as I can. Something about structure really grabs me.

    Regards,

    I sent her a note to ask if I could help. I don't really have time, but if it's only temporary, I think I can manage.

    There are some nice newer poems anyway.

    Regarding duties? Perhaps.
    ~lilymaid7:iconlilymaid7: Feb 28, 2005, 12:58:45 PM
    Perhaps someone else who's free more ought to take over those responsibilities. (I'm not volunteering, though. I'm sort of busy with this getting married stuff.)

    Not enough, I'm afraid, and I'm starting to get the impression that I'm not wanted here.

    I've left multiple messages, sent notes, and so on. I know what it means to be busy, believe me... but if I'm not going to get so much as a reply saying "Sorry, busy, will get back to you" when I've taken the time to tap out ideas and questions, then I'm already on my way out.
    ~lilymaid7:iconlilymaid7: Feb 25, 2005, 2:15:36 AM
    We got some new poems now, anyway.
