Second Annual Brigid in Cyberspace Poetry Reading

WHAT: A Bloggers (Silent) Poetry Reading

WHEN: Anytime February 2, 2007

WHERE: Your blog

WHY: To celebrate the Feast of Brigid, aka Groundhog Day

HOW: Select a poem you like - by a favorite poet or one of your own - to post February 2nd.

RSVP: If you plan to publish, feel free to leave a comment and link on this post. Last year Reya put out the call and there was more poetry in cyberspace than she could keep track of. So, link to whoever you hear about this from and a mighty web of poetry will be spun.

Feel free to pass this invitation on to any and all bloggers.

Thank you, Reya, for beginning what I hope is now an annual event.

I post a lot of poetry. I'm definitely in for this. I wore a t=shirt to the march today that says "White magic is poetry. Black magic is anything that actually works." Which is true, but, of course, poetry works, too.

This is totally ironic. I must be channeling poets and poetry tonight, because I just drafted the blog I'm going to post tomorrow. I chose as my subject my favorite poem. And now, three or four hours later, I stumble across this. What are the chances?? Well, count me in!

I'm gradually adding the poems to the Pagan Theologies Wiki - hope this is OK. I thought it would be good to have titles and links to actual posts. There is also a comments facility on the wiki, so anyone can add themselves in the comments as well.

I'm also looking for contributors to the wiki, so let me know if you're interested.

My friends like to play it and buy
goonzu gold. If you have money to buy goonzu money, you will find it is very useful. Earning goonzu online gold is not so hard. Try your best and then you can get it. I buy goonzu gold, just because I like it. So simple the cheap goonzu gold is.
I am so happy to get some gw gold from my friends. They know I need GuildWars Gold, they give me. So I always can get some Guild Wars Gold from my friends. I buy GuildWars money with my spare money. It makes me happy that I can still earn some cheap gw gold.
