Poems Appreciate and Enjoy

Poems Appreciate and Enjoy Am thinking about taking this to the President of the local Senior Center as support for starting a weekly poetry reading there. Am also wondering if I can safely say I have posted more poems on Poetry Soup then any other poet who lives in the South Eastern United States. How many words will a picture be worth? (At least 1,000) When it is God who put us here on earth To assist and always help each other out And with His Spirit shall start to shout. Even though I am old with much senility (Next Year 75 married for 50 years) To write poems God gave me the ability That is always being with the understanding My poems depend upon what others are demanding. Weekly poetry readings at a Senior Center And even maybe making me into a mentor Who can and will motivate others to write Poems and them to poetry readings invite. May only want to listen like some others do Which really is only thing that they want to And then Poetry readings they all will come Poems enjoy reading and also hearing some.

James, This is a wonderful idea. The more the mind is used, the younger it stays. It will be a fun activity, give some a bit of competition and others will just enjoy the reading. Hope this works out for you! ~jan
