I just found this thread so thought I would say "Hi". I am a newbie poet but I do enjoy it. I took a creative writing elective last semester and found that I actually enjoy writing poetry. I have been lurking here for a couple of days and realize that I have a lot to learn. I have to admit though that I feel kind of hypocritical in evaluating others work as I am still so new at it but I will try and offer as much help criticism as I can. Right now I have about six or seven poems that I am proud of so I will be posting them (one a day of course) and I hope you all enjoy them. I look forward to the feedback as I only want to get better. Thanks!
