poetry presentations!

We will be presenting poems on MONDAY!! Make sure that you have followed the poetry presentation format--- and filled out your practice form. BE CREATIVE!

I am wondering if any of you have found poetry sites (websites/links) that would be of interest to the rest of us. I know that some of you have been writing your own poetry for a long while -- and you may be interested in publishing some of your work online. SOOOOOO... your task is to find a poetry site that you think would be of interest to others.

1. Search for a poetry site--- and check it out completely.
2. Copy the web address (control c)
3. Make a comment to this post and paste (control v) the web address.
4. Under the web address give a brief description of what the site has on it and why you think it would be interesting for others to look at or search.

Happy poetry hunting!!
